The correct answer is D) his explanations depict him as a bit defensive.

<em>The narration affects the narrator’s credibility in the excerpt because his explanations depicts him as a bit defensive. </em>

The statement refers to an excerpt of “Infinite Jest”. The narrator’s credibility is affected when he says “I cannot make myself understood. I am not just a jock, I said slowly. Distinctly. My transcript for the last year might have been dickied a bit, maybe, but that was to get me over a rough spot.” So he explanations depicts him a bit defensive, affecting his credibility by the way he is responding.

<em>“Infinite Jest</em>” is a novel written by David Foster Wallace in 1996.

I believe that the correct answer that affects the narrator's credibility in this excerpt is that his explanations depict him as a bit defensive.
He keeps explaining why he had a rough patch, but that he was always good prior to that.

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is said to be a novel of its time, meaning that it reflects the values and issues of
Lilit [14]
This statement is correct because the novel accurately and vividly depicts the gap between Victorian moral ideals and their absolute subversion and degradation. When deformed and hideous Mr. Hyde knocks down a little girl in the passage, it is almost a metaphor for his knocking down everything that is sacred and valued within his society - and the girl herself is a symbol of innocence. A couple of months later, he beats a man to death, displaying his urge for violence. But the most disturbing fact is that he is the same person as Dr. Jekyll, a well respected and decent man of high standing in his society, who can't bear to give up on his evil alter-ego. It depicts the fact that the more the society tries to restrain our dark urges, the stronger and more irresistible they become.
