Answer:

“In media res”

Explanation:

“In media res” is a narrative technique in which an author begins telling a story not from the beginning of it but from the middle of it or from a crucial event. In the case of Abraham Lincoln's story, that important event would be his famous speech "The Gettysburg Address." This technique carries the story from that point on, and then gradually presents earlier events through dialogue, flashbacks or descriptions.

This would be "in media res" meaning "in the middle of things." It begins, quite frankly, in the middle of things and carries on from there.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

“We are all searching for someone whose demons play well with ours.”

― Rea Frey

“I made constant deals with myself, as though these deals would culminate in some life-changing event: If there are five babies on the plane, it won’t crash. If I just say yes to this client, I’ll get into Forbes. If the light turns green when I count to three, I won’t complain for the rest of the day. If I don’t eat dessert today, I can have Mexican tomorrow.”

― Rea Frey

“I’ve always been good at keeping secrets—other people’s secrets, friends’ secrets, family secrets, strangers’ secrets. But I’m even better at creating secrets. No one ever guesses them … even if I beg them to try.”

― Rea Frey

Read the excerpt from Blanca Flor. Blanca Flor. Believe me, the third job will be impossible to do. It will be too difficult eve
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The number 3.

Explanation:

The Mexican fairytale <em>Blanca Flor </em>tells the story of a young woman Blanca Flor being kept prisoner by a tyrant and evil man Don Ricardo. And it was from this man that she along with Juanito escaped.

Blanca Flor used her magic to help Juanito do his tasks and kept him alive. But when the tasks gets more and more difficult, she knew she had no choice but to escape from the evil man. So, she spit three times in the fireplace which will give them time to get away while the spit covers up fro Flor whenever Don Ricardo calls. This spitting three times into the fire used the motif of the number three, where the magic that Blanca Flor has will help them buy some time and get away from the domain of Don Ricardo. Outside of his boundary, his magic will no longer have any effect on them so they needed the magic to help them get away as far as possible.

Krister is writing a research essay about the threats
kolezko [41]

Since we must consider what should be included in the introduction of the essay, the best option is the one that follows:

A. An engaging way to introduce his reader to the plight of giant pandas.

<h3>Writing an introduction</h3>

In an essay such as the one Krister is writing, the purpose of the introduction is to present the main topic to readers in an engaging way. By doing so, readers know what to expect from the reading and are curious about the rest of the essay.

Since that is the purpose of the introduction, we can choose letter A as the best option. All Krister has to do is find an engaging, compelling way to present the topic.

The other options can also be included in the essay, but NOT in the introduction.
