Answer: The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

     The word <em>convention</em> means the accepted way of doing things. This can be applied to the Engish language and its rules. The rules of English or conventions are a set of widely accepted standards or practice. For instance, in writing a narrative, we can find the convention  of including characters, setting and a plot and in writing a letter there is a layout to follow. In both cases, people will know that they are reading a narrative or a letter because of the conventions included.

Write two to three sentences explaining how the image reinforces the text
Ludmilka [50]

When answer questions like this, it is important to think about what you are visualizing while reading the text.  This should help with your explanation.  To reinforce means to "back up or prove" with evidence.  For example, how would a picture of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. exhibit in Washington D.C. reinforce the speech he gave?  The picture proves that the speech as well as Dr. King himself were a powerful presence to all.  He was so important to the change of Civil Rights in our country that the monument is a testament to that change.
