Answer:

The film adaptation of "The crucible" begins with the girls dancing in the woods. This is done with a double purpose:

<u>1. To set the atmosphere of the story.</u>

By starting with this scene (which in the orginal text takes place off stage) the viewer is placed on the theme of suspicious that is present all throughout the story, because we might believe that they are doing something off but we are not entirely certain about it. The theme of witchcraft is also established through this scene.

<u>2. To create a dramatic effect over the viewer. </u>

There is a clear impact on the viewer by starting the film with the girls dancing around, it makes the accusation that comes later much more real and it allows the viewer to place himself in the eyes of Parris, the one who sees the girls dancing.

What is a hypothesis and during which steps is it important?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

<em>A hypothesis is a testable, scientific statement</em> based upon limited evidence as a starting point in order for further investigation.

I assume when you ask <em>during which steps is it important</em> you mean the steps of the scientific method. Although it is important throughout the entire process, the most important would probably making a prediction. You cannot make a (good) prediction without a hypothesis. And without a prediction, you cannot test anything at all. You can't form a conclusion of any sorts.

So I would say it is most important when trying to form a prediction based on your hypothesis.
