Which best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt?
vova2212 [387]

I have found this question online, and it is about the short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," by Mark Twain. The excerpt is long for me to post here, but it begins with the story told by Simon Wheeler, one of the characters.

Answer:

The option that best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt is:

A. with the use of dialect.

Explanation:

When it comes to literature, dialect is related to how the author portrays the characters' speech. Many authors choose to write words with an uncommon spelling just to show that that is the way the character pronounces them. For instance, in books by Zora Neale Hurston, what should be "I" was spelled as "Ah" to emphasize pronunciation.

<u>The same happens in this short story by Mark Twain. The excerpt we are analyzing here uses dialect to reveal more about the character. For example, Wheeler says "feller" instead of "fellow". Twain wants readers to know that Wheeler is a simple man, in contrast with the narrator of the story who is an educated man and who uses a very different (formal) dialect from Wheeler.</u>

How does the introduction of Minimus the poet support the author's purpose?
lara [203]

Answer: Here is the poem.

They had just finished singing it for the third time when Squealer, attended by two dogs, approached them with the air of having something important to say. He announced that, by a special decree of Comrade Napoleon, "Beasts of England" had been abolished. From now onwards it was forbidden to sing it. The animals were taken aback. "Why?" cried Muriel. "It's no longer needed, comrade," said Squealer stiffly. "'Beasts of England' was the song of the Rebellion. But the Rebellion is now completed. The execution of the traitors this afternoon was the final act. The enemy both external and internal has been defeated. In 'Beasts of England' we expressed our longing for a better society in days to come. But that society has now been established. Clearly this song has no longer any purpose." Frightened though they were, some of the animals might possibly have protested, but at this moment the sheep set up their usual bleating of "Four legs good, two legs bad," which went on for several minutes and put an end to the discussion. So "Beasts of England" was heard no more. In its place Minimus, the poet, had composed another song which began: Animal Farm, Animal Farm, Never through me shalt thou come to harm! and this was sung every Sunday morning after the hoisting of the flag. But somehow neither the words nor the tune ever seemed to the animals to come up to "Beasts of England

Minimus represents the producers of state-approved songs and slogans in Stalin's era.

Explanation:

The exercept was from "Animal farm"was an Utopian satire written by George Orwell and it was published in 1945. This was a fable based on Russian communistic system during g the Satllin regime and the betrayal of the cause of Joseph Satlin betrayal. The satire illustrate illustrate the way Stalinism had betrayed the ideals of the socialist revolution in the Soviet Union. The poet Minimus introduces a new song that is sung on Sunday mornings

How is the MLA author-page citation used? The author's last name and page number(s) must appear within the text and after the di
artcher [175]

The correct answer is The author's last name and page number(s) must appear within the text and after the direct or indirect quotation.

According to MLA Handbook (8th ed.), whenever a quotation is directly or indirectly inserted in the body of a research paper, it is essential to acknowledge the source where the quotation was taken form. To do so, it is necessary to add a parenthetical reference at the end of the quotation with the author’s (or authors’) last name(s) and the page number(s) of the quotation, paraphrase, or summary you are quoting. For example:

Sometimes, teachers will shy away from teaching literature with a goal of aesthetic reading  because it is nearly impossible to measure accurately a student’s personal responses to the text  (Cline 96).
