O clarify the topic of a literary work
O convey the author's attitude toward a subject
O reveal an insight about human life
O teach the reader a moral lesson
Answer:
O Teach the reader a moral lesson.
Explanation:
Any form of literary work tends to have a theme that resonates with what the writer wants to relay as a message to the readers. This purpose of a "theme" is thus, to provide a moral lesson through the story.
A theme is a central topic around which the whole story revolves around. Writers employ themes to pass on a message in their stories, be it a moral lesson or any message that they want to help spread.

Read the paragraph.
Keeping my mind on my writing is not easy when I stay at my grandmother's ocean-side cottage. Just about the time that I am going along pretty well, I glance out the window and see two huge bald eagles swooping and tumbling in a spectacular aerial display. Naturally, I have to leave my desk and rush to the doorway to watch the performance as long as it lasts. Then, as if a conspiracy were trying to keep me from working, two otters poke their shiny heads out of the water and hang there motionless. They watch to see what I am doing. As soon as I return to my desk, seagulls wheel into my window view and screech as they search for scraps of food. Within minutes, this confusion of sounds stirs my aging St. Bernard out of a deep sleep, and he hauls his massive, lumbering body over to be petted. Mickey, my cat, can't stand to see any partiality, so he is soon pacing back and forth across my ankles. As I wiggle my bare toes to tease Mickey, I realize that my legs have become stiff. I remember that I have not had my daily ride. So, I slip on my sandals, step out the door, spring onto my bike, and pedal off down the beach. Meanwhile, the composition in my typewriter sits and grows colder.
In complete sentences, name four details that develop the topic sentence.
Four details that develop the topic sentence are 1. The two eagles flying outside made the narrator leave the desk 2. The seagulls in the window looking for food distract the narrator 3. The St. Bernard dog approaching to be petted interrupts the narrator 4. The stiffness in the legs of the narrator makes the narrator go for a ride.

“The term "It's not over until the fat lady sings" comes from the opera Der Ring des Nibelungen. The opera has a painfully long sixteen hour run time and ends with a character, commonly played by a large woman, singing a twenty minute solo. While the large operatic woman is commonly portrayed wearing a horned hat, a Brünnhilde is actually a winged hat.” What word or words should be inside inverted commas? A. Sixteen hour run time B. Winged hat C. Brünnhilde D. Run time
Answer:
C). Brünnhilde.
Explanation:
Inverted commas(" ") are employed to mark the beginning and end of the quotation. It is usually employed around the terms or titles in order to highlight or emphasize the readers' attention towards it.
The words that must be inside the inverted commas would be 'Brünnhilde' as it is the title of the term that is being discussed. The passage discusses that the term 'comes from the opera Der Ring des Nibelungen.' It discusses that the 'Brunhilde opera' involves 'sixteen-hour painfully long run time' which is 'played by a large woman.' Thus, option C is the correct answer.
HELP i need to turn this in today--- In at least 100 words, choose a character from Oedipus the King and explain his or her motivation.
Answer:
ANTIGONE
Antigone is the daughter of Oedipus who is as stubborn and decisive as her father. She in fact planned to defy Creon's directives and bury Polynices. The similarity with her father seemingly ended there as unlike her father she has the remarkable ability to recall events that happened in the past. Oedipus forgot all the good things the priest Tiresias did for him and went ahead to defy him, he also seemingly forgot about his encounter with Laius at the three-way crossroads. Antigone, on the other hand, recalls the things her father's actions have cost her family and the grief he has brought to them thus far.
Because Antigone is aware of the fate that her family is destined to, she is fearless about what Creon would do to her, even until the point of death because she feels she has nothing to lose. She appears to be in love with her brother Polynices (now dead) which seems to further the plot about the family being an incestuous one.
Antigone shows her great need for connection to her family throughout the book as she defies Creon to bury Polynices which could have cost her her life.

The conventions of a number of the states, having at the time of their adopting the constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its power, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.

D) They’re meant to increase the loser of the federal government and decrease the right and powers of the public.

1 Five thousand! That's about how many advertisements you are exposed to in one day if you live in a metropolitan area. Researchers' estimates of the actual number vary from three hundred to six thousand, but everyone knows that ads are everywhere. Advertising goes down the street with us; it's on trains, planes, and buses. It shouts at us at sporting events from the banners on display and the electronic scoreboards. Advertising takes the form of brand names and logos on our clothing and accessories. You can't even turn on the television or check out your favorite website without watching an advertisement. At every point, advertising shouts, whispers, or cajoles us to “Look at me! Buy me!” But how exactly do advertisements do it? As it turns out, just a few formats characterize the majority of ads. 2 One common, and very persuasive, type of advertisement is known as the association ad. This advertisement could be a picture of a famous person wearing a designer's shoes or clothing, or driving a certain type of car. It does not bother to tell or show you what the product does. Instead, the message is “you've got to have this product because of who you'll be associated with if you own it or wear it.” 7 Ads that tell a story are found most often in commercials, as a story relies on multiple images and a sequence of events. This format has infinite variations, but imagine one that goes like this: A man is driving in his old car and pulls up next to a new, shiny car at a stop light. He looks at the driver in the new car and imagines that he is the one driving the fancy new car. Images flash across the screen—images of how different the man's life would be if he had that car. Suddenly he flashes back to reality. The brand flashes on the screen or is highlighted prominently on the rear of the new automobile as the light turns green and the car speeds off in front of him. The last scene of this story? Man driving to the new car dealership for—you guessed it—that same car. Which sentence from the passage includes a coordinating conjunction? a. “One common, and very persuasive, type of advertisement is known as the association ad.” (paragraph 2) b. “Researchers' estimates of the actual number vary from three hundred to six thousand, but everyone knows that ads are everywhere.” (paragraph 1) c. “Ads that tell a story are found most often in commercials as a story relies on multiple images and a sequence of events.” (paragraph 7) d. “He looks at the driver in the new car and imagines that he is the one driving the fancy new car.” (paragraph 7)
Answer: B. Researchers' estimates of the actual number vary from three hundred to six thousand, but everyone knows that ads are everywhere.” (paragraph 1)
Explanation:
The conjunction “but” is used to create a compound sentence.
A coordinating conjunction include option A: “Researchers' estimates of the actual number vary from three hundred to six thousand, but everyone knows that ads are everywhere.” (paragraph 1)
What do you mean by Conjunctions?Conjunctions link grammatical elements. In the case of the coordinating conjunctions, which includes and, but, or, yet, etc., these are mainly used to coordinate or join elements of the same rank.
This applies to complete ideas known as independent clauses, which creates compound sentences.
This can be seen in sentence A because this contains the coordinating conjunction "but". Also, you can know this is a coordinating conjunction because each of the clauses "but" joins is a complete idea or independent clause.

Answer:
What is the best definition of intrinsic motivation?
Reasons to act that come from within a character
Explanation:
When we talk about "intrinsic motivation" we refer to something that comes from within, comes from inside. So we would say that the motivation is something that obey to intern factors. That's why intrinsec motivation is best defined by "reasons to act that come from within a caracter".
An example of this could be that a character wanted to go to the coast to have a walk because he was happy and he felt he needed to go outside. In this case, the motivation is intrinsic. An external motivation would be if, for example, a friend of him calls him to go and have a walk.

O by creating a specific description of the time and place
O by misleading the reader's sense of time and place
O by creating smooth sentence fluency that has rhythm when read aloud
Answer:
O By creating a specific description of the time and place.

This style of speaking or writing through the use of selective or some specific words helps in determining or defining the literary work.
