Answer and explanation:

In literature, exposition is the part of a story in which the author sets the stage for what will happen. It is where the theme, characters, conflicts, setting and/or circumstances are laid out. It is during the exposition that we get to know some fundamental facts about the characters that will help us understand who they are and keep up with their development through the story.

In "Now, facts are facts. Wiley was a boy. He and his mama lived by themselves with just Wiley’s dogs," we have an exposition because the character Wiley is being introduced to us. We now know he is a boy who lives with his mother and dogs. Those are simple facts about Wiley that set the stage for bigger conflicts and happenings. We need to know a bit about the characters to feel connected to them.

Many of Odysseus's men did not escape with their lives.

Explanation:

Paraphrasing is the act of rewriting or re-expressing the meaning of a given passage but with the use of different words other than those used by the writer in the original text. This technique allows the readers to understand the passage or text more, and with the use of new and added words, the paraphrase will summarize the whole passage for a better understanding.

The given passage from Homer's "The Odyssey" talks of how the men in their ships go on with their sailing. The main points of the passage are how the deaths are dealt with, and how many men were killed by the Cicones. So, in the paraphrase, the key details should be that many of Odysseus' men were killed. This led to the remaining men to be greatly saddened by the loss of their friends.

Morality Dilemma #5: The Plagiarized Report You are an English teacher at a high school. One of your pupils is a very bright and

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Help her.

Explanation:

If I was the teacher, I would take into account the girl's previous achievements. This girl..."a very bright and gifted girl, whom you enjoyed teaching." If that's the case, then reporting her would affect her permanent school record, and dimmen her chances of getting into that prestigious university she'd always dreamt of attending. A teacher always looks to the best interests of his/her students, so refusing to accept her work is also out of the question; because every teacher must genuinely care about the future of his/her pupils. But teachers also must be honest and sincere in their work, meaning: to pretend to believe that the essay is her work, whilst knowing it is'nt...puts your OWN career in danger. I would, email my student and talk to her about what she did. Not in a dangerous, you're-in-trouble, email, but a soft understanding email, stating how you care about where she ends up, and how you want her to make the right decision to get to the right place. So contact her, and try to reach out to her. Often, people in tight spots resort to the wrong choice to accomplish something they've always wanted to do. Be soft. Understanding...don't scare her away...
