We are given with the steps:
<span>To make a plain apron, first measure and write down the measurements below.
If you’re making an apron that will be tied, extend this length by at least 1 ½ times the measurement.
Decide how wide you’d like the waistband to be, adding 1 inch for the seam.
Decide how far down you want the apron to fall and measure that, adding at least 2 inches for seams and the hem.
Measure the width you’d like the apron to be from one side to the other, adding 1 inch for hems.
Cut your selected fabric in the dimensions you’ve written down.
The missing step is
</span><span>To keep the edges from fraying, sew ¼ inch wide overcast stitch around the short ends.</span>
Answer:
The option that would most likely function as the exposition in a story is:
A. We had been working for months to restore the house to its original glory.
Explanation:
<u>The exposition of a story is the moment when the author sets the stage for what is going to happen. In other words, it functions as the introduction of the story, where we get to know the setting, the characters, and begin to understand the context in which the plot will unfold.</u>
Therefore, the exposition should present information that will be developed, that is, introductory information. When we analyze the options given in the question, we can see that B, C, and D are more likely to be used in other moments in the story. They demand context. If they were the very first sentence in a story, for instance, we would be taken aback, having no idea what is going on. Why is Shannon trying to go from the raft to the boat? What project is she talking about - and who is she, for that matter? What contest is this and who is talking about it?
<u>Now, option A sounds much more like an introduction. We do not know who the speaker is yet, but now we know that he/she and someone else have been working on renovating a house. It is easy to see that this piece of information will be further developed: we will be told who the speaker is, whose house it is, etc.</u>
The first one is correct. Question marks are always on the inside of the quotation marks.
The answer is "Her eyes darted between the two of us like sparrows between trees." because similes are comparisons that usually use the word "like" in them as a way to compare.
