Explanation:
I think the correct answer is: B) The bride floated down the aisle to her awaiting love.
First of all, diction is the writer's choice of words. By choosing the words, the author defines the mood and the style of writing. This can be the difference between a great writer or an average one, between capturinf the readers attention or not.
In the options given, the B seems like a sentence that was well thought by the writer as he uses profound words that evoke a certain feeling, in this case it could be love. The use of the word "floated" gives us a clue on how the bride was feeling, she didn't just walk. The rest of the options only describe mere actions without giving them a deeper meaning.
Answer:
It was very low inside the house, and so dim, with the closed blinds, that they could scarcely see one another;
Her father standing decorously apart with his hat on his forearm, as at funerals; a woman rested in a deep arm-chair, and the woman who had let the strangers in stood behind the chair.
<em>Editha</em>, by William Dean Howells, is an antiwar story published in 1905. Its characters are people who greatly value custom and ritual, even when it is objectively inconvenient or awkward for them to do so.
The two chosen lines exemplify that character trait. In the first sentence, the house has the blinds closed, as was common for houses where the family had recently experienced a loss or a tragedy. This rule is followed, even though it meant that the characters were barely able to see each other.
The second sentence has a similar example, as Edith's father stands at a distance and with his hat in his hands. We are told this is the way it is done at funerals, which is consistent with the previous sentence and with the character's personality traits.
3)sentence fragment, it starts with a conjunction(making it a dependent clause) but does not have an independent clause following it.
Neils will admire Gerda as she admires him.
Explanation:
Neils was a horse and a man, made into a single mold. He was a charming young man who attracted even the ladies older than him. He was deceived by Mrs. Boye and later he met a young girl named Gerda.
Gerda was young and she died soon after their marriage. Her love changed from her husband to her Christmas God. Neils felt betrayed of love.
Even when he was wounded in the war and died, he did not bend to religion.
