The correct answer is the following: Goines uses satire in his narrative because he wants the reader to think critically about the war. "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie" is an essay written by David Lance Goines that was published in "The Free Speech Movement" in 1993. The essay describes the author's personal strategy to avoid the draft during the Vietnam War.

Goines uses satire in his narrative because he wants the reader to think critically about the war. By using humor and sarcasm in telling a story, that otherwise would be dramatic, he gets to make the reader to think by themselves about how wars affect humans in such a negative way, and how most times those wars are not needed.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

C The author draws a comparison between the chemical transformation of Jekyll into Hyde and the real-life shift from ordinary person to evil-doer.

The principal will say, ’rules have to be followed at any cost (right in indirect form)

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The same structure, in indirect or reported form, would be:

The principal will say that rules have to be followed at any cost.

Explanation:

When reporting what someone said, we must change the verb tenses according to when the line was said. If there are any pronouns in the sentence, those may also need to be changed to match the speaker - for instance, if a man said something about himself, we should change "I" for "he". We also change time expressions, such as substituting "today" for "that day".

Not much changes in the sentence we are transforming here since the line inside the quotation marks does not present time expressions or pronouns. Another reason for that is the verb tense. Because it is "will say", which is a future, we do not have to change the verb tense inside the quotation marks.

Just to make it clearer, imagine that the principal already said that: The principal said, "Rules have to be followed at any cost." Now the tense is in the past, "said". In this case, we should also change the tense inside the quotation marks. It would be: The principal said that rules had to be followed at any cost.
