Read the excerpt from “The Scarlet Ibis.” Daddy, Mama, and I went back to the dining-room table, but we watched Doodle through t

he open door. He took out a piece of string from his pocket and, without touching the ibis, looped one end around its neck. Slowly, while singing softly “Shall We Gather at the River,” he carried the bird around to the front yard and dug a hole in the flower garden, next to the petunia bed. Now we were watching him through the front window, but he didn’t know it. His awkwardness at digging the hole with a shovel whose handle was twice as long as he was made us laugh, and we covered our mouths with our hands so he wouldn’t hear. When Doodle came into the dining room, he found us seriously eating our cobbler. He was pale and lingered just inside the screen door. “Did you get the scarlet ibis buried?” asked Daddy. Doodle didn’t speak but just nodded his head. Which example of sensory imagery from the excerpt best shows that Doodle is upset about the death of the scarlet ibis?

arsen [322]

Answer:

It does not necessarily reflect the experience of other fast-food workers

Explanation:

Anecdotal evidence, as the name implies, consists of particular anecdotes, that can be useful to learn more about the subject matter, but that cannot be used in any way whatsoever to draw scientific conclusions.

This is because anecdotal evidence is not always representative of the reality of the subject matter on a larger scale.

This is why other research techniques like statistical studies are preferred.

kirill [66]
The line from John Keats' poem that is written in iambic pentameter is C. Fade far away, dissolve, and quite forget.
