The excerpt from Chapter 5 reveals Dede's admiration for Minerva's assertiveness. The excerpt is culled from The Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez.

<h3>Dede and Minerva - The Time of the Butterflies</h3>

The author's depiction of Dede shows her to be practical compliant and gentle. She is the one who gives over her own to make peace amongst those that she loves.

On the other end of the spectrum is Minerva. Minerva is bold, adventurous, strong-willed, and idealistic.

Although Minerva is the courageous one, Dede is the one who ends up dedicating her life to the upbringing of her fallen sister's children, thus keeping their legacy as heroes alive.

The correct answer, thus, is A.

In Chapter 5, the author's portrayal of Dede reveals to the reader <u>A. Dede's admiration</u> of Minerva's assertiveness, as captured by Julia Alvarez in "In the time of the Butterflies".

<h3>In the Time of the Butterflies</h3>

<em>Julia Alvarez's "In the Time of the Butterflies" </em>shows that Dede had a split perspective about Minerva and her other sisters. But when she later grew up, she came to realize that the sisters fought against the injustice hoisted on them and the nation by the Dominican Republic's longtime dictatorship led by Trujillo’s government.

Thus, the author's portrayal of Dede does not reveal to the reader about Dede's surprise at Minerva's behavior, her realization of Minerva's flaws, or her irritation with Minerva's assertiveness but <u>Option A</u>.

The mood is the atmosphere of the story, and the tone is the author's attitude towards the topic. We can identify both by looking at the setting, characters, details, and word choices.

Which rules must be followed for an MLA citation to be correct? Select four options.
Inessa05 [86]

These are the rules that must be followed for a MLA citation to be correct:

1. Both opening and closing quotation marks must be used when quoting directly from a text. This way you are giving full credit to the author, or authors, you are citing.

2. The author’s name can be placed either before the quotation or within parentheses. You can say <em>Smith stated that "apples are red" (244)</em> or <em>"Apples are red" (Smith, 244). </em>

3. The complete citation must be added to the works cited page. It is here where the reader can find more information about a specific source.

4. The author’s name, if known, must be included. And when it is not known, a shortened title of the work should be used instead (in quotation marks if it is an article, for instance, and in italics if it is a book).
