<u>Which best describes the impact of the narration in the excerpt?</u>

<em>It allows the reader to understand the thoughts of a man preparing for death. </em>

What does "but his peers are hoping their act of kindness will change his mind" mean in the sentence?
Amanda [17]
This sentence means a character had decided upon a certain action for a problem in their head. however other characters (the peers in this example) bestowed an act of kindness or "did something nice" for this other characters in hopes that he/she would change their mind. A good example would be if you upset your parent by acting up and they said no to a sleepover. you would do chores or act kindly towards them in order to try to get them to change their mind and say yes.

How does the stranger’s interaction with Elisa at her garden differ from Henry’s interaction with her at her garden?
Serjik [45]
A long exposition differs from a typical stage direction because a stage direction is usually brief. An exposition, however, goes into more detail. A stage direction also just usually tells the setting or where or what the character is doing, or how the stage looks. An exposition shows history and goes full out on the setting.
