Answer:
A). A memory that is emotionally intense.
C). A memory that contributes to our sense of self.
Explanation:
Self-defining memory, as the title suggests, is elucidated as the memories associated with notable personal events that plays a vital role in defining oneself and elicit intense emotions during retrieval. These memories are firmly associated with the other memories reflecting alike theme, relational, or emotional pattern. The above two aspects i.e. 'emotional intensity' and 'contribution to one's sense of self' are quite significant to self-defining memory as these are directly associated with how an individual defines himself/herself(provides an insight to his/her own identity) which is crucial to their goals in life. Thus, <u>options A and C</u> are the correct answers.
The excerpt from The Death of Ivan Ilych that can be used as textual
evidence to support a thesis statement on the theme of loneliness is ‘There
was no deceiving himself: something terrible, new, and more important than
anything before in his life, was taking place within him of which he alone was
aware’.
The correct answer is letter C. In the passage from “The Rescue Mission”, the author has chosen the present tense to make the narrative appear more vividly by assimilating it to the here-and-now of the speech act. This use of the present tense is also called <u>Conversational and Narrative Historical present</u>. It describes the past as if it is happening now. These sentences are clear examples of this use in the setting: “I’ve got the clips, bungee cord, vests, and basket, and the rest of the equipment is onboard.”; “I have to get my head in the zone because this chopper is heading into stormy conditions, and it will feel as though things are happening at supersonic speed when we get to the site.”
The statement "The person we voted "most likely to succeed" is Samantha. Who else should it be, but the smartest person in our class?" contains a wrong choice of word and makes it grammatically error. "Who else should it be, but the smartest person in our class?" must be replaced by "<span>Who else should it be other than the smartest person in our class?". It sounds so good and is correct.</span>
