d cheerfully as she ran down the stairs. She twisted the deadbolt and opened the door, but to her surprise, the only thing waiting for her was the fresh air of the beautiful spring day.

In three to five sentences, explain what point of view the author uses and how the author creates interest in the story.​

1 answer:
Iteru [2.4K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer and Explanation:

The author clearly uses a third-person point of view, which can be seen due to the lack of first person pronouns. Whether his point of view is limited or omniscient, however, is impossible to tell just from this part. This passage focuses solely on Mina, and even with her the narrator is not revealing any thoughts. As for creating interest in the story, the author introduces a conflict right from the start: the mysterious red box at Mina's feet. This event makes readers curious as to who left it there and why, and what the box contains.

The sentence given is "A major Romantic poet, John Keats wrote brilliantly, loved hopelessly, and died prematurely.  The answer is letter C. "and died prematurely". This is to maintain the parallel structure of the sentence which should be your guide in choosing the next phrase. "brilliantly", "hopelessly", and "prematurely" are alike.

Identify the correct in–text citation when you reference the book Birds by Thomas Gray.
Strike441 [17]
The correct answer would be the second choice, "<span>Most of the birds could already fly well (Birds 186).". This is because when using in-text citation, you must include the line being cited and the source in (). you must remember that the source is the Title of the work and the paragraph or page number the line is found. Also a common mistake is made when placing the period. always place the period outside the ().</span>
