Answer: C) she is not strong enough to stand up to the grandmother and D) she is not very bright.

Explanation: By reading O'Connor's description of Bailey's wife we can infer that she is not strong enough to stand up to the grandmother, because he describes her as "innocent" and with a "broad face" that description gives the idea of a calm woman who doesn't stand up against anyone. We can also infer that she is not very bright, because O'Connor compares her with a cabbage.

The correct answer is C. She could start with the last sentence instead, allowing suspense to build as the reader wonders why she is hesitant to ask if Grandma June needs help.

Explanation:

In literature, the suspense is a common device used by the author to engage the audience in the story and increase the interest of it. Suspense mainly occurs when the audience or reader wonder about the outcome of events, the following event or the wait events are connected and wait anxiously to know it, because of this, the author of a text can create suspense by using a slow pace in the text, provide only limited information, present the outcome first without the background or use dilemmas.

Considering this, in the case presented the author can create suspense if she starts with the last sentence, because this would make the audience wonder about why the narrator is helping Grandma June and why this seems quite important for the narrator, which means the author could build suspense by presenting the outcome and not providing the background information. Thus, if Lucy wants to create more suspense "She could start with the last sentence instead, allowing suspense to build as the reader wonders why she is hesitant to ask if Grandma June needs help".

Gatsby spends five years dreaming about Daisy and being reunited with her. Describe Daisy the “colossal” illusion. How does his
Firlakuza [10]
<span>Daisy was in a relationship with Gatsby at an early age. He has been gone for 10 years and she had thought he died in WW1. Gatsby was Daisy's first love and she had put him and their relationship on a pedestal. At first their is disbelief that Gatsby is in fact not dead but alive. She is madly in love with him and does not understand how he is still alive and is enraptured by the enigma and mysterious circumstances his appearance has brought into her life. After the death of Myrtle Wilson, Daisy is able to return back to her normal life. The ease in which she is able to actually do this is testament to the societal views towards women at the time. Women were viewed as helpless and Daisy was probably thought incapable of a vicious murder so the police did not pursue an indictment. Her husband was also a powerful businessman and must have certainly had clout in the political sphere.</span>

What is wrong with this citation: (Herring, The American Century and beyond: U.S. foreign relations, 1893-2014, 2017).
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Omission of author's first name, published information, incorrect citation of print with the wrong usage of brackets.

Explanation:

Citation is very crucial to the paper writing as it may spoil the effectiveness of the work if the references are cited inappropriately. Here, the first name of the author is missing along with the publishing information. The correct citation of this example would be;

Herring, George C., The American Century and beyond: U.S. foreign relations, 1893-2014. Oxford History of United States Series,Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2017.
