Answer:
The option which the opening paragraph does the least to accomplish is:
B. immediately pull the reader into the action
Explanation:
Let's work this one out through elimination:
A. The opening paragraph DOES establish a relationship between the narrator and a character. We are immediately told they are uncle and nephew.
B. This seems to be the right choice for us. There is not a lot of action going on. We do not know what the uncle is listening for, what to expect, what is going on. This dragging creates some suspense as we wait for the action to start.
C. The opening paragraph DOES provide a sense of setting. As soon as we are told about the "cornfield" and the "breeze", we can imagine the characters are on a farm, out in the open.
When writing any essay, you need to plan. Look up the four square writing process. This will help you pick three main points to write about. Once you have those, you will place your story details (evidence, support, facts) under that topic. This will allow you to organize your writing, and will give you a vision for your thesis statement. The thesis statement should start with, “Gogol’s definition of home changes throughout the story in the following ways:...” and lost the three ways. Those are the topics of your body paragraphs. Start the essay with and introduction and end with a conclusion.
The synonym of glib would be insincere...
if you look up the definition in the dictionary it tells you that glib refers to someone that is insincere
hope this helps :)
