Which note best summarizes the central idea of "A Simple Way to Create Suspense"?

English
1 answer:
diamong [38]2 years ago

Answer:

d. Make readers hungry for answers

Explanation:

Lee Child wrote this interesting article in order to answer the same old question "How to create a suspense?".

According to him, the conclusion can be drawn from an analogy between creating a suspense and baking a cake.

Surely, for both of those things you need ingredients and they need to be adequately mixed, but the answer, Lee, suggests, is much simpler: the cake doesn't matter, all that matters is that your family members are hungry.

By using this analogy, he claims that successful suspense is created by making the readers/viewers constantly oblivious as to what will happen next. Anticipation will glue them to the book, making them flip the pages vigorously in search for answers and resolution.

The difference between the present reservoir, with its silent sterile shores and debris-choked side canyons, and the original Gl
Anna [14]

Answer:

"debris-choked".

Explanation:

In the given passage, the speaker/ author presents the difference between the Glen Canyon and Lake Powell. This contrasting image/ description is made in such a way that the difference is felt and projects a drastic image.

The comparison of these reservoirs is so drastic that the author uses life and death to compare it. While <em>"Glen Canyon was alive. Lake Powell is a graveyard." </em>And the one phrase that best contributes to the author's sad tone is<em> "debris-choked",</em> which presents an image of a place that is dying, or on the verge of death.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

                                                                     14 Green Meadows,

                                                                     Connecticut.

                                                                     22nd June, 2020.

Dear James,

How are you doing? How are the kids? I know Sally is keeping the house lively, because i know that left to you and little Michael, that house would be more silent than a graveyard.

I traveled down to Connecticut to visit my cousin just to have a change of scenery and so far I've had quite an experience here. The food is different, the weather is hotter down here and it appears there is a higher crime rate here. I'm adjusting nicely though.

I attended a football game last weekend and it was really fun. Connecticut is a fun place to be in, provided you don't stay out after 11, haha.

I have a date with a gorgeous lady tomorrow, i met her at the football game. She was supporting the home team though, but this shows that opposites attract, right?

I would be going back to California next week though, i would make a brief stop to see my brother before completing the journey home.

Greet Sally and Michael for me, tell them i would come over for Thanksgiving and that i love them. Take care, James.

                                                                   Yours faithfully,

                                                                    Jordan.

What does Malala’s kite metaphor tell us about her beliefs on education?
____ [38]

Incomplete question. However, I inferred you are referring to the book "Malala, a Brave Girl from Pakistan/Iqbal, a Brave Boy from Pakistan: Two Stories of Bravery."

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, a<u> metaphor</u> is a figure of speech (a word or phrase that does not have a literal definition) rather the meaning is symbolic in nature.

Malala’s kite metaphor tells us her strong belief to attain true freedom to receive an education. According to the author, Malala's holding a firm grasp on her kite string shows her fight for freedom in an environment that despises female education.
