Which statement about a memoir's narrator is true?
The narrator only appears in works of fiction.
The narrator is the person telling the story.
The narrator is the author of the memoir.
The narrator tells the author's story.

Answers

The correct answer is B. The narrator is the person telling the story.

Explanation:

In literature, the narrator is always the person or character telling the story, this concept is closely related to the point of view because a story can be told in the first person, second person, or third person. The concept of the narrator also applies to memoirs that focus on describing personal experiences of the author or experiences he/she witnessed. This is because even when the content of the memoir is the experiences of the author the narrator or person telling the story can be different. Thus, the statement about a memoir's narrator that is true is "The narrator is the person telling the story".

Read the poem "Travel" by Edna St. Vincent Millay.


The railroad track is miles away,
And the day is loud with voices speaking,
Yet there isn't a train goes by all day
But I hear its whistle shrieking.
All night there isn't a train goes by,
Though the night is still for sleep and dreaming,
But I see its cinders red on the sky,
And hear its engine steaming.
My heart is warm with friends I make,
And better friends I'll not be knowing;
Yet there isn't a train I wouldn't take,
No matter where it's going.

The narrator spends many hours traveling by train.

The narrator is frustrated by the noise of travelers.

The narrator has fond memories of her travels.

Answer:

The narrator is preoccupied by a desire to travel.

Explanation:

In the poem "Travel," by Edna St. Vincent Millay, the speaker expresses an intense yearning for traveling. In fact, she is so obsessed and absorted in her dreams and eagerness about traveling, that during the day she can hear the whistle of a train. Besides, at night she cannot sleep but sees the train's "ciders red on the sky" and hears the sound of a steaming engine. Thus, she has a fascination with traveling, since she would take any train and go anywhere, and she believes she would make the best of friends.

In other cases, the censoring has been direct and brutal. On February 28, 1981 the morning newspaper carried a story about the burning of my novel, Bless Me, Ultima. The book was banned from high school classes in Bloomfield, New Mexico, and a school board member was quoted as saying: “We took the books out and personally saw that they were burned.”

Which best describes the rhetorical appeal used to illustrate the destructive nature of censorship?

Answers

Answer:

Factual evidence was used to appeal to logic.

Explanation:

The absence of options makes this question a dicey one but based on previous experience with this question, I'll answer what I know.

Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry is a book by Rudolfo Anaya.

In this excerpt, Anaya gives an example of the censorship that his book had to endure.

He gave an account of how a high school class took the books outside and saw that they were burned as shown here: "...and a school board member was quoted as saying: “We took the books out and personally saw that they were burned.”"

This is an appeal to the reader's sense of logic because it uses concrete evidence to sustain the argument.

The correct answers are 1. The weather is warm and sunny, and 2. My mother and I shop for warm clothes in winter

Explanation:

As it is indicated in the chart for a sentence to be correct it requires the subject and verb to agree in number, which is known as subject-verb agreement. This means both the subject (agent of the action) and verb (action) need to be either plural or singular.

In the case of the sentence "The weather are warm and sunny" the subject "the weather" is singular, and therefore the verb form should be singular. According to this, it is completely correct to replace "are" by "is" which is the singular verb form of the verb to be. On the other hand, in "My mother and I shops for warm clothes in winter" the verb "shops" should be replaced by "shop" because "My mother and I" is a plural subject, and therefore it is incorrect to use "shops", which is singular.
