Answer:
The text structure of "The Great Fire" story is "Cause-and-Effect structure".
The Cause-and-effect structure simply explains the ways the firefighters employed in putting out the fire and the impact and results of the actions of the firefighters.
Explanation:
Jim Murphy is the author of the "Great Fire" story. He is an American author who specializes in writing fiction and nonfiction for children, young adults and general audiences. He published "The Great Fire" story in 1995.
The story is told about the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. The fire outbreak destroyed most of Chicago.
Looking at the story, the "text structure" adopted is the "cause-and-effect structure".
Text structure refers to a way an information is organized within a given text. The cause-and-effect structure gives an illustration about the relationship between a specific concept, event or idea and the event, idea or concept that follows it. The result of the latter is a consequence of the former. Such structure was adopted in "The Great Fire" which illustrates the various ways the firefighters tried to stop the outbreak and the leading result and impact of the actions taken.
Similes are literary devices that compares words with another directly, a bit different from a metaphor (Metaphors compare things indirectly related).
<h3>
Mr. Shiftlet’s Southern gothic character</h3>
Correct option is B
The simile used to develop Mr. Shiftlet’s Southern gothic character through "The image reinforces the idea that Mrs. Crater and Lucynell are both damaged."
- The "ugly words" of Mrs. Lucynell was that Shiflet was "a poor disabled friendless drifting man", but she also considers him capable enough to be her daughter's husband.
- This way of addressing him by the woman who expects him to marry her daughter shows that the world or society he lives in doesn't have much care about others, everyone for themselves.
