The structure of the story builds suspense by making the narrative into a quest.

Explanation:

The narrative uses well tested techniques of building suspense in On a mountain trail by Harry Perry.

The first example one can see is in the beginning when the author describes the particular difficulty of the quest for the top.

Thus starting medias res and then going back to give details.

The second example is that the narrator often employs descriptive passages just before a new development to draw out the moment.

This builds suspense even more in the text.

GalinKa [24]

Answer: The right answer is Eatonville, Florida.

Explanation: Although part of this story by Zora Neale Hurston takes place in the Everglades (Janie and her third husband live for a period of time there), I would contend that the main conflict occurs in the city of Eatonville, since it is there where the story begins, with a confident and exultant Janie returning home, but without her husband. The townspeople start speculating about their relationship and her husband's whereabouts, and they soon distrust her, but her friend Phoebe believes in her and she listens attentively as Janie recounts the true story of what happened - which also gives the reader an opportunity to know about the story of her life.

Choose the correct standard usage for this sentence: “The town is fifteen miles _____.”
skad [1K]
Farther. Further is metaphorical, using "farther" in this case because <span>“farther” has the word “far” in it, and “far” obviously relates to physical distance. Therefore the town is fifteen minutes farther up the road </span>

Dear mr Judge,

I heared about tom's conviction ,igot to know that you are charging him for man slauter that is ten years in prison. Below i am giving reason why you should change his conviction.

The murder commited was as an act of self defence, Tom was just trying to defend himslf while a person attempted to murder him.

Imagine a person trying to stab you with a knife. At that point please get that he was desperate to survive and i dont blame him for it. In the process of trying to escape he hit him with the head with a bottle,not with the intention to kill him but unfortunately for the.......... he did not survive.

Sir i hope you have a second thought. Tom does not deserve to go to jail.

Your's faithfully

Barrister Glamour.
