The imagery used in the first paragraph of Chapter XII constantly reiterates the order and cleanliness of France.

He says the entire thing is a garden that must be brushed, watered and trimmed daily, indicating it is very neat and clean. The hedges are "shaped" and symmetrical. The trees are in long, straight rows. The landscape is so orderly Twain compares it to a checkerboard. 

The effect of this imagery is to show the reader the beauty and cleanliness of France, which is astounding to Twain.

Which sentences most likely belong in the resolution paragraph of a narrative? Select two options. Before I could even explain,
jeka57 [31]

Answers:

  • "I can replace the window," he said, putting his arm around my shoulders, "but I can't replace you."
  • The audience stood up, cheering wildly, and I've never felt so relieved in my life.

The resolution paragraph of a narrative is the section in which the main conflict of the story is resolved. In the first section, the character appears to be having an epiphany. An epiphany is a sudden realization, most often triggered by a new event or piece of information. Epiphanies are often found towards the end of narratives.

In the second example, the character's conflict is the anxiety regarding the reaction of the audience. As the audience stands up and cheers, the conflict is resolved. This is why the character feels "relieved."
