Explanation:

Direct speech is a sentence in which someone's exact words are relayed. It is usually marked by quotation marks.

Indirect speech (also called reported speech) relays someone's words without directly quoting them.

When you want to convert direct speech into indirect speech, you need to be careful about several things. Quotation marks are not used in indirect speech. Pronouns are often changed, and we need to be careful about the tenses, as well. If the reporting verb (e.g. to say, tell, ask) is in the past tense, the tense used in the main sentence needs to be changed:

"I have been waiting for Kanika and Monica since yesterday", he said.
He said that he had been waiting for Kanika and Monica since yesterday.

1. The word in the passage that is used connotatively is: C. Suffered

To use a word connotatively means that a word can change its meaning when used in different contexts such as the verb suffer here, that its general meaning is "to feel pain or to be in an unpleasant situation", but if you say "who on account of his illness was suffered to be out of irons" the verb suffer here means "to allow " or to permit": "who on account of his illness was allowed to be out of irons."

2. Papago song's purpose is : D. To express

3. The primary source from early American and colonial literature is: A. the autobiography of Olaudah Equiano.

The Interesting Narrative of the Life Of Olaudah Equiano, an autobiography published in 1789, dealt with themes such as slavery in West Africa and how the experience, which was also personal, differed from slavery in the Americas. However, this autobiography helped in the creation of the 1807 Slave Trade Act, which ended the transatlantic slave trade for England and its colonies. Therefore, studying his work nowadays continues to be important when learning about African and African-American literature and history.

4. The effect of the repetition in the lines from Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven is: A. It creates an anxious tone.

Repetition in literature is usually used to increase enthusiasm or creating anxious tones and, as the purpose of Poe in these lines is to increase suspense and also, terror, when telling the story, the use of repetition works pretty well here.

When would a writer most likely use a fast pace?

Taya2010 [7]

To show that time has passed

- describing an important event doesn’t make sense because it’s important they wouldn’t want to rush through it
- introducing a character doesn’t make sense because getting to know a character helps to build your story
- creating a calm feeling doesn’t make sense because calm is usually associated with slow pace
