Which sentence is an anecdote?

English
1 answer:
docker41 [41]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

My grandfather once told me I shouldn't have any regrets in life because I wouldn't remember them when I got to his age anyway.

Explanation:

An anecdote is a usually short account of an interesting, amusing, or biographical incident or event.

An example of an anecdote is the third sentence. The narrator tells us about something that happened to them, about their own experience.

The rest of the sentences don't contain this type of personal information. They are not told from anyone's point of view. They seem like simple, universal statements. This is why we can't say that they are anecdotes and the reason the third option is the correct one.

anygoal [31]

The executioner (symbol)  He struggled as a man condemned to death struggles in the hands of the executioner, knowing that he cannot save himself. (Excerpt) The executioner symbolizes death. Ivan Ilyich realizes that he cannot escape death. (significance)


the black hole (symbol) He felt that his agony was due to his being thrust into that black hole and still more to his not being able to get right into it.(excerpt) The black hole symbolizes Ivan Ilyich’s refusal to accept death. It also symbolizes his denial that his life has lacked meaning or purpose. This denial prolongs and worsens his misery. (significance)


the light (symbol) Suddenly some force struck him in the chest and side, making it still harder to breathe, and he fell through the hole and there at the bottom was a light…  At that very moment Ivan Ilyich fell through and caught sight of the light, and it was revealed to him that though his life had not been what it should have been, this could still be rectified…   In place of death there was light.(excerpt) The light symbolizes Ivan Ilyich’s moving from the darkness and ignorance in his life into the final stage of understanding and acceptance of his condition. This acceptance helps him conquer his fear of death. (significance)
