People laughing as they walk next to the calm water. Laughing, as if they have never been with friends. Every bar open on every block as you can hear joyous conversations. Also the quiet, dark houses that you walk past flicker on a light almost as to say goodnight.

A work of literature must provide more than factual accuracy or vivid physical reality... it must tell us more than we already k
bija089 [108]

Literature is read for various reasons. For example, some people read literature to understand other people better. Others read it for escapism. Entertainment is another common reason. All of these reasons depend on the author providing the reader with new information that is different to their own experiences of the world. If the author does not tell the reader more than he already knows, it is unlikely that the reader will be informed or entertained by the work.

In paragraph 12, Turkle begins an extended metaphor: little “sips” of online connection. What does Turkle's metaphor describe?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Professor Sherry Turkle's little "sips" of online connection is a metaphor that describes the little "pieces" of conversation that we are having by using technological devices.

Explanation:

MIT Professor, Sherry Turkle, PhD, and a licensed clinical psychologist, with a joint doctorate in sociology and psychology, notes that people are now avoiding the necessary conversations that we ought to be having with one another because we are "plugged-in" to various technological devices.  In her write-up in the New York Times of April 21, 2012 titled "The Flight from Conversation," Professor Sherry Turkle urges people not to "sacrifice conversation for mere connection."  Since we are technology-enabled, she declares that we should make the best use of it to remain conversationally connected to others whether they are near or far, but must still bring ourselves to enjoy the indispensable face-to-face conversations with our fellow human beings.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question. The mother understood, And wisely stepped away. Aunt Imogen Was there for only o
KonstantinChe [14]
The answer is "it leaves things uncertain."

This passage focuses on the mother's understanding; it does not focus on Imogen's inner thoughts or her love for the children.

However, it does not specifically explain the "many things" the mother thought when she looked away from her child's eyes. Therefore, it leaves these things uncertain.

Which sentence contains a misplaced modifier?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The answer is sentence number one.

Explanation:

Every word in a sentence has a meaning. Some of them modify the main word. Misplaced modifier is, as its name suggests, such a word modifying not the word its meant to, but a completely different word. Therefore it is misplaced in a sentence. This changes the meaning of a whole or a part of a sentence.

Having this in mind we see that phrase <em>a gold man's watch </em>from the first sentence has illogical meaning. So looking at this phrase we could interpret it as  a watch that belongs to a gold man, which is highly unlikely. Usually a misplaced modifier is corrected by simply changing the order of the words, which means that in this case the phrase should say: man`s gold watch.

Other sentences from the text do not have ambiguous meaning such this.
