Answer:

C. Inform

Explanation:

You can tell that the purpose of this paragraph is to inform the reader because it only provides facts, and it does so without any particular exaggeration. You know that it's not written to persuade since the author hasn't shown any bias or tried to convince you of something, and it's not for the purpose of entertainment because the author didn't put any extra information to entertain the reader.

Discuss the symbolic nature of the chalk in Brother Leon’s hands.<br> - in the chocolate war book
Gelneren [198K]

In The Chocolate War, the symbolic nature of the chalk in Brother Leon's hands was to convey a powerful message to the reader that he was merciless.

<h3>What is a literary symbol?</h3>

A literary symbol is a mark, sign, or word that is used to represent an idea, object, or relationship beyond the ordinary meaning.

For instance, as a horrible man, Brother Leon holding chalk shows that he has no mercy as a powerful school administrator.

Brother Leon uses quid-pro-quo in his own evil way.

Thus, in <em>The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier</em>, the symbolic nature of the chalk in Brother Leon's hands was to convey a powerful message to the reader that he was merciless.

Pls help me. pls give the answer​
Ksju [112]
The dark clouds gave me a glimpse that it was going to rain. It rained so hard. There was so much puddles when I was walking. Rain is such a soothing sound it makes me feel very calm. Also I don’t really like rain when I’m out because I hate the feeling of getting wet when I have clothes on. When I was out there was so much people carrying umbrellas.

Answers:

<em>1. Lance Kenniston needed a ship to get to an asteroid, but nothing was available.</em>

The most important detail of the passage is the fact that Lance Kenniston needs a ship urgently, but cannot find it. The name of his friend, or his physical characteristics are not vital to the action. Similarly, the name of the port is not the most important part of the passage. Finally, although the characters' desperation is important, it is even more valuable to know the reason for their desperation.

<em>2. A. It tells readers there is something important happening on that asteroid. </em>

If the characters are desperate to get back to the asteroid, we can assume something important is going to happen there within the next two weeks. We do not know whether they are planning on taking it over, whether they are at the wrong location, or whether Kenniston has not tried hard enough. Therefore, none of the other options is possible.
