Tennyson brings a lot of action into this end scene of Arthur's life. He makes Bedivere the most important character during Arthur's death by using vivid imagery and detailed dialogue. The reader gets to see that even though Bedivere lies a couple of times (hiding Excalibur instead of throwing it into the Lake), Arthur sees right through him and when he finally throws the sword in, trusts Bedivere again completely. 

Because most of the poem is done with dialogue, the reader gets to see the personalities of each character develop, and gets to see how each deals with the fact Arthur is about to die.

Chinua Achebe believes that "[l]iterature, whether handed down by word of mouth or in print, gives us a second handle on reality
IgorLugansk [536]
<span>In the work, “What Has Literature Got To Do With It” Chinua Achebe emphasizes his belief that literature is much more than just a creative form of expression, arguing that it is a necessary and vital contribution to everyday life. Achebe explains how “Literature, whether handed down by word of mouth or in print; gives us a second handle on reality”(117). It does so by providing the essential building blocks toward development, or as he calls it, “modernization.” In other words, Achebe argues that, in order for African nations to prosper and become successful, their first “goal” should be to understand literature.

Read the paragraph from Lucy’s narrative.
rusak2 [61]

The correct answer is C. She could start with the last sentence instead, allowing suspense to build as the reader wonders why she is hesitant to ask if Grandma June needs help.

Explanation:

In literature, the suspense is a common device used by the author to engage the audience in the story and increase the interest of it. Suspense mainly occurs when the audience or reader wonder about the outcome of events, the following event or the wait events are connected and wait anxiously to know it, because of this, the author of a text can create suspense by using a slow pace in the text, provide only limited information, present the outcome first without the background or use dilemmas.

Considering this, in the case presented the author can create suspense if she starts with the last sentence, because this would make the audience wonder about why the narrator is helping Grandma June and why this seems quite important for the narrator, which means the author could build suspense by presenting the outcome and not providing the background information. Thus, if Lucy wants to create more suspense "She could start with the last sentence instead, allowing suspense to build as the reader wonders why she is hesitant to ask if Grandma June needs help".
