Which two lines in this excerpt from the poem "A Grain of Sand" by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper indicates its subject? Do you se

siniylev [52]

The first two lines in this excerpt from "A Grain of Sand" by Frances Ellen Watkins indicate its subject, which is the very grain of sand. In the first line it is mentioned explicitly, whereas in the second one it is replaced with the third person singular pronoun it: "Do you know to me it (the grain of sand) brought just a simple loving thought?". It is a quite common resource for authors, since the use of pronouns prevent poems, as well as other kinds of literary and non-literary works, from being repetitive, that is, pronouns help authors avoid using the same word or term over and over again.

snow_tiger [21]

The topic sentence sets the focus on the way the ideas are organized in these two works: The Code Book and The Dark Games. Therefore, the examples that best support this point-by -point topic sentence are:

-The Dark Game presents information like a story, naturally and in chronological order. By comparison with the scientific style in The Code Book, The Dark Game's style is like fiction. There is a chronological organization.

-The Code Book presents information logically, organized around central ideas. The Code Book's logical organization is the focus in this statement.

The following statements do not exemplify the topic sentence:

- The Code Book relies on scientific terms to explain the topic. The focus is on vocabulary not on the organization of ideas.

-Paul Janeczko uses a conversational tone to engage the reader. The focus is on the writer's style and purpose.

-Simon Singh uses formal language to inform the reader. The focus is on the writer's style and purpose.

-The Dark Game uses vivid descriptions to explain people and places. The focus is on one of the writer's literary tools: descriptions.
