How is the listener's experience altered when a reader uses fluency strategies and adjusts tone when reading a text
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The listener finds it easier to make sense of the ideas presented in the text.

The listener is more engaged by the text.

The listener better recognizes when different people are quoted within the text.

Explanation:

When you're reading a text aloud and have an audience, it's very important that you're reading fluently - without too many long pauses, stuttering, and similar issues. What is also important is your tone. If you are reading for some time without changing your tone at all, your audience will stop listening. The text you are reading could be the most interesting one, but once it's presented poorly, the listeners will lose all interest.

With fluency and an adjusted tone, it's easier to listen and understand the text and its organization. Quotes are always somehow pointed out within the text, and they should be pointed out when read aloud as well.

So, the correct options are the first, third, and fifth.

Take a position in the debate over the literary canon and support it. Your answer should be at least one hundred words.
White raven [17]

It is known as a literary canon to the set of classic works that are part of high culture. These works, either because of their formal characteristics, their originality or their quality, have managed to transcend times and borders, becoming universal and always valid.

The criterion for choosing the works of the literary canon should be aesthetic excellence, but this concept is very subjective because what a person can consider attractive another person may find boring. On the other hand, those who limit themselves to consume the books established in the list of the canon lose the opportunity to know an endless number of works that could please them more, and even contribute more to them intellectually and emotionally.

It is true that it is important for students to know classical works of literature such as the odyssey, the divine comedy or more recent works as a hundred years of solitude, however, it is necessary not to marginalize other literary works equally good and profitable for students only because they are not on the list of the literary canon.

The current society has evolved, we no longer have the same thought that we had at the time when the classic works were written. A clear example of this is the role played by women in today's society, the importance of women was a taboo subject and little mentioned in many of the works that are in the list of the literary canon by which many schools are governed, and this can lead to students not exploring and understanding this important topic.

In conclusion, the literary canon is a list of classical works because of their importance at the time they were written and therefore it is important that students know them, because through these works they can understand the behavior and thought that people had in other times.  However, it is equally important that students read recent works of current interest that allow them to compare current society with the old one, and the evolution that has occurred in the literature.
