Now that you've spotted the problems of shift of person and shift of number, revise the paragraph by removing these inconsistenc

ies. Rewrite the paragraph, maintaining consistency by using first person plural when referring to the readers, and third person plural nouns and pronouns in referring to those being judged.
In the story, "The Valiant Woman" by J. J. Powers, we find that in judging people we overlook most of the characteristics that draw us to him, but we do so without realizing it. You can draw inaccurate conclusions about a person by misjudging their facial expressions, their physical stamina, and their obvious personality traits. When people are blinded by false superiority, they judge a person incorrectly because they fail to see them as they really are.

Answer:

In the story, "The Valiant Woman" by J.J. Powers, we find that in judging people, we overlook most of the characteristics that draw us to them, but we do so without realizing it. We can draw inaccurate conclusions about a person by misjudging their facial expressions, their physical stamina, and their obvious personality traits. When people are blinded by false superiority, they judge a person incorrectly because they fail to see them as they really are.

Explanation:

The paragraph has been revised and the inconsistencies with the shift of person and shift of number have been corrected.

It has been rewritten and consistency was maintained by making use of the first person plural when referring to readers, and the third person plural nouns and pronouns when referring to those being judged.

Compare and contrast letter to a young refugee from another and farewell to manzanar
abruzzese [7]

Letter to a Young Refugee from another and Farewell to Manzanar are both stories about struggles of families inside a refugee camp for the former and internment camp for the latter. In the “Letter to a Young refugee” which took place in Guam after the Vietnam war, Lam addresses another refugee he saw in the news to relate his previous experience. The theme is more like, “I know what you are going through.”

In “Farewell to Manzanar”, the main character went back to the old camp in Manzanar much later in her life to reflect on what used to be her life there as a displaced Japanese in America.

Both Wiesel's All Rivers Run to the Sea and Spiegelman's Maus relate events of the Holocaust
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A) From a Jewish survivor's perspective.

Explanation:

In <em>All Rivers Run to the Sea</em>, Elie Wiesel tells us about his own experience under Nazis oppression and gruesome treatment of the Jews. He is a Jew, a writer and a survivor of the Holocaust, so in his work, we can <em>experience </em>the very essence of what was going there. Though his works made him famous, he said that those honors are a burden because he would rather like that his sister Tsiporah stayed alive, that Holocaust did not happen and book left unwritten.

Artie Spiegelman used his father Vladek`s vivid memories for writing <em>Maus. </em>He made hours and hours of interviews which included prewar, war and after war period.  Vladek with his first wife Anja were first sent into segregated neighborhoods (ghettos) and then going through several Nazi camps. They tried to escape several times, but always unsuccessfully. In that time they had a young son Richie who they sent to a different ghetto to be with his aunt, but after she found out about sending them to the camp, she pois oned her children, Richie and herself. After the war, Anja was deeply disturbed and she committed sui cide. Vladek continued his life, but haunted by terrible past.
