1. How would you describe the tone and purpose<br> of these excerpts from McNeil's oral history?
Setler [38]

Answer:

<u>the tone</u> used in McNeil's oral history<u> is confessional</u> and <u>the purpos</u>e seems to be that by making simple, humble statements the narrator is able to <u>present his own morality and his struggles in statements and not as pleadings</u>.

Explanation:

these excerpts are from a<u> narrator who comes from a marginalized community engaging in a protest against the government</u>. this kind of oration is known as <u>deceptively simple</u>.

on the surface, the text seems uninviting and simplistic. but the layer of rebellion is subdued by the matter of factly tone to become more of a defiance to which the common person can easily identify and sympathize with. It also s<u>hows the strength of the narrator</u> by not betraying their emotions to the reader.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

All of the quotes are examples of foreshadowing from "The Swimming Contest", by Benjamin Tammuz, except <em>"My Abdul-Karim is a fine, loyal man. Don't you tease him."</em> All the other quotes are foreshadowing what will happen later in the story. Foreshadowing is when an author gives the reader clues or suggestions that will happen later. Frequently, future events are merely hinted through dialogue, as in this case.

He is a liar and so you need not believe ( noun clause)​
S_A_V [24]

As mentioned in the comments, this question is about completing the sentence with a noun clause.

Answer:

He is a liar and so you need not believe what he says.

Explanation:

<u>A noun clause is a dependent clause that functions as a noun in a sentence. That means it can function as subject, object of a verb or of a preposition, or a predicate nominative. Noun clauses begin with words such as what, whatever, when, which, how etc.</u>

Having that in mind, I will provide a couple of possible answers:

- He is a liar and so you need not believe what he says.

- He is a liar and so you need not believe that he is truly sorry.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

Jekyll believes that, because of his secret, he must avoid seeing his friends.

Explanation:

In the passage Jekyll says, "I have brought on myself a punishment and a danger that I cannot name." Since he is not willing to name the punishment and danger, it remains a secret. Because of this he decides that he needs to "lead a life of extreme seclusion." This means that not only will he isolate himself from Dr. Lanyon but also from his other friends.
