Read this excerpt from chapter 1 of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and answer the question.

You don’t know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain’t no matter. That book was made by Mr. Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth. That is nothing. I never seen anybody but lied one time or another, without it was Aunt Polly, or the widow, or maybe Mary. Aunt Polly—Tom’s Aunt Polly, she is—and Mary, and the Widow Douglas is all told about in that book, which is mostly a true book, with some stretchers, as I said before.

Which of the following most accurately describes the impact the author creates by directly addressing the reader as a first person narrator?

A)The sincerity of the narrator is highlighted which forewarns the reader that The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn will offer a similar but less shallow characterization of Huck Finn than its predecessor.

B)The narrator creates uncertainty by calling into question the integrity of the main character while making clear that The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is intended as a comedy.

C)The narrator addresses concerns readers may have about the author’s notoriety as a truth-stretcher in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn which suggests that the character of Huck Finn is semi-autobiographical.

D)The limited education of the narrator is made clear with the use of a distinct dialect while encouraging fans of the previous novel to read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The narrator creates uncertainly by calling into question the integrity of the main character while making clear that The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is intended as a comedy.  

Explanation:

By saying that it's 'mostly true' called the integrity into question as well as the fact that he 'but lied one time or another'. It is intended to be funny as is the story.

Read the excerpt from the story Hummingbird and Heron:

Many years ago, when the world was so young that the sun was still new in the sky, there lived two friends. Heron was large and slow, with a long, gangly neck and big, floppy wings. Hummingbird was tiny and swift, with wings that moved so quickly that they buzzed and a slender beak as sleek as a needle.

Heron and Hummingbird both loved to eat fish from the river. Every morning, Heron would fish to her heart's content, eating until her stomach was so round and heavy that she had to waddle back to shore. Every afternoon, Hummingbird would fish and feast until he was so heavy that his tiny, buzzing wings could no longer keep him in the air. Heron and Hummingbird thought they were the luckiest birds in the world.

One afternoon, Hummingbird did not catch as many fish as usual. He fished and he fished, but his line came up empty more times than it ever had before. He flew to Heron's house.

"Heron! Heron!" he called. "Why have you eaten all the fish?"

Heron bustled to her door, angry and surprised at her friend's accusation.

"Me? Eat all the fish?" she squawked. "I barely caught anything this morning! My poor stomach has been growling all day."

How does the narrator's point of view influence the description of events?
The narrator's point of view allows the reader to know exactly what Heron is thinking when he doesn't catch any fish.
The narrator's point of view allows the reader to know that both Heron and Hummingbird are satisfied after eating many fish.

Why is this statement considered a theme and not a plot summary.

Answers

Answer:

This statement can be considered the theme and not ta plot summary because It relates to universal idea about life.

Explanation:

We also know that the theme is the general issue that deals with a story (love, trust, jealousy). It is generally a phrase that synthesizes or encompasses the entire text, a very brief exposition of the central idea of ​​the writing around which the meaning of the text is organized and which gives universal meaning to the specific data or events presented by the text. Instead the plot is the sequence of events in the order in which they appear in the story.

Read the following group discussion about utopias (perfect societies) and dystopias (hellish societies).

VICTOR: If you all read Sanchez's article, you know that she argues that Aldous Huxley's Brave New World is a utopian novel, not a dystopian novel. It's a negative society for the main character only because he's a weirdo, an outsider. Everybody else is happy.
RIKU: Yeah, but keep in mind how Sanchez defines a utopia. Her idea of a perfect society is one where everybody is ranked by ability and there isn't any conflict - not even disagreements. EDGAR: What's your point?
RIKU: My point is that Sanchez's idea of a perfect society is all about rules and order. I know that my idea of a utopia is totally different from that, and it's probably different from a lot of other people's, including Huxley's.
MARIA: In that case, what are some other examples of utopias? Ones that aren't orderly like the society in Brave New World?

state any two problems that ambiguous sentences can create in communication​

Answers

Explanation:

"Ambiguity refers to a form of meaning in which a word, statement, or resolution is not specifically defined, allowing for several interpretations." When you realise that there are several solutions to an issue but aren't certain which one to choose, you're dealing with ambiguous circumstances.

As a result, ambiguity might obstruct concept clarity, which is a key communication fundamental. Ambiguity can have a detrimental impact on the response or reaction to a message that has been delivered and received.
