Answer: Choice C)
He wishes for the reader to have an emotional response to the people or events.
===================================================
Explanation:
- Choice A is false because the events or people are real.
- Choice B is true (the people and events are real), but it's not the reason why the writer would go for a poem. The writer could go for an essay if all they wanted to do was talk about the person or event.
- Choice C is true and it's the answer. Poems provide an emotional response of some kind which allows people to connect better. This in turn allows people to remember the poem better, or remember the person/events better.
- Choice D is false because choice A is false.
Answer:
The answer would be C) swimmed.
Explanation:
If you put each answer into the sentence, you can see if it does or doesn't make sense. Ex:
Lets try A first:
At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swammed </u>in the outdoor pool.
Although saying "swammed" might be fun, this does not make sense, therefore the answer cannot be A.
Lets try B next!
At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swum </u>in the outdoor pool.
Again, this might be fun to say and all, but this does not make sense, so we should try C next.
At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swimmed </u>in the outdoor pool.
This one makes sense and works! We should still try the last answer, D, though (you never know!)
At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swam </u>in the outdoor pool.
At first glance, this may seem correct, but if you say this out loud, it doesn't make sense. The answer must be C) swimmed.
Hope this helped! :)
