Based on context clues, which meaning of the word trace is most likely used

English
1 answer:
zzz [600]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The meaning of the word "trace" in the sentence is:

A. (verb) 2. To study by going back over a progression step-by-step.

Explanation:

Since the word "trace" as used in the sentence is a verb, we can already eliminate options B and D. The sentence does not talk about the action of drawing something by following an outline of a shape. Instead, it talks of being able to find out information by going back, a step at a time. That is what we do when we study our ancestry. We go further and further back, finding members of our family that are more and more distant from us. Having that in mind, we can easily choose letter A as the best option:

A. (verb) 2. To study by going back over a progression step-by-step.

Which phrase describes facts and details that an author states directly in a text? (1 point)
m_a_m_a [10]

The phrase that describes facts and details that an author states directly in a text is;

  • Explicit information

The facts and details that an author directly states in a text are explicit information. Explicit information is plainly described to the audience leaving no room for guessing or deductions.

Implicit pieces of information are those that require the audience to make guesses or interpretations based on the few pieces of information provided.

If, for example, the author states; <em>"That leader was a dictator who had no love for the people", </em>he has provided explicit information. We do not have to interpret the character of the leader.

It is revealed plainly in this piece of information.

How does Elinor respond to Colonel Brandon’s gift to Edward Ferrars? Is she willing to forego her own love and facilitate Edward
Ganezh [65]

The gift in question is the parson's freehold, an ecclesiastic benefit that will allow Elinor’s Romantic interest, Edward Ferrars to have a steady source of income that will make him a suitable choice for Lucy Steele. He had secretly promised to wed her when he was younger and although he does not love her he intends to marry her out of respect and moral principles. Edward is not too handsome and quite shy but Elinor knows that behind such characteristics he is a loving, moral person who deeply cares for others and is loyal to them, at the expense of his own welfare. She loves him deeply though secretly and is quite dismayed and shocked when she learn Colonel Brandon’s gesture. The situation is quite a conundrum, since Colonel Brandon loves Marianne, who loves the young, handsome, charming and dashing John Willoughby and Elinor loves Edward Ferrars. She is in the middle of the whole ordeal and she is tasked with announcing the “good news” to Ferrars which makes it even more, painful for her. This is a pivotal moment in the plot as it forces Elinor to question her own inflexible adherence to sense. Even though she is willing to avoid a confrontation and to remain neutral and polite her love, that is to say her sensibility will force her to display her feelings. In other words, just as much as Marianne’s Romantic disappointments have forced her to have more sense, Elinor’s impossible situation will force her to have more sensibility (as they will also force Edward, who is very much like her though due to different reasons).
