Answer:

The correct answer is Option C) "the fact that the curtains do not close between acts".

Explanation:

The play "Our Town" by the American author Thornton Wilder is famous for having "no curtains and no scenery". Unlike most plays, the curtains do not close between acts. This is part of the playwright's way to tell the story, which has a minimalist style. This style also includes the actors performing in an almost bare stage and not using any props. The usage of minimalism in theater maintains the focus on the actors' dialogues and actions.

jeka57 [31]

This question is missing the stanza. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the final stanza. What does the sound of this

rhyme scheme create?

Though I am old with wandering

Through hollow lands and hilly lands,

I will find out where she has gone,

And kiss her lips and take her hands:

And walk among long dappled grass,

And pluck till time and times are done,

The silver apples of the moon,

The golden apples of the sun.

- "The Song of Wandering Aengus,"

William Butler Yeats

A. a feeling of surprise and unexpected rhymes

B. a feeling of chaos and messiness

C. a feeling that everything is repeating

D. a feeling of calm and an expected ending

Answer:

The rhyme scheme creates:

D. a feeling of calm and an expected ending

Explanation:

When we pay attention to the last word of each line, we see that there is a broken pattern to the way they rhyme. The rhymes are interspersed, but even that logic is often unobserved. "Moon", for instance, does not rhyme with any other word. This creates an interesting effect on readers. We learn to expect something, but are surprised to read something else.

Now, when we pay attention to the mood conveyed by the speaker, we can sense calmness. What is described, and the way the speaker describes it, is filled with a sense of certainty. He knows he will meet his loved one, even if he is old. He knows there will be peace and happiness once he finds her.

Marissa predicts an informational text about firefighters will address what they do at fire stations when there is not an emerge

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The heading that best confirms her prediction is C. Exercise and Relaxation.

Explanation:

It is common for readers to make predictions about the text they are going to read based on information previously collected. Reading the headline and skimming the text for some cue words help indicate the path the author has likely followed. Suppose Marissa knows the text is about firefighter, either because she skimmed it or because someone told her so. If she reads the headline "Exercise and Relaxation", she will probably predict the text is not about what firefighters do while helping in an emergency, but about what they do on their free time.

The other options wouldn't lead her prediction down the same path. "Ranks and Insignia" could be about hierarchy and medals/prizes for performing well; Essential Equipment would inform readers on what objects are necessary for a firefighter to do his job; Types of Trucks, as the headline says, would discuss the different types of firetrucks, their advantages and disadvantages. To lead someone to predict the text will address what firefighters do when there is not an emergency, the best option is really "Exercise and Relaxation".
