Read the excerpt from act 1 of The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street.

STEVE

The two of us can go, Charlie.

(he turns to look back at the car)

It couldn’t be the meteor. A meteor couldn’t do this.

He and Charlie exchange a look then they start to walk away from the group.

What do the stage directions tell the reader about Steve’s and Charlie’s point of view?

They do not want to leave their homes and walk into town.
They suspect something strange may be going on.
They know what caused the flash of light but do not want to say it.
They are angry at the group of people for making them leave.
Mark this and return

Answers

The correct answer is B. They suspect something strange may be going on.

Explanation

According to the fragment, it can be inferred that the central theme of the discussion between Charlie and Steve is about a strange fact that caught their attention and they are going to check what has happened. In addition, they discard the option that it was a meteorite as Steve says "It couldn't be the meteor. A meteor couldn't do this". According to the above, the correct answer is B because they can not explain the event that just happened.

What is one reason for a writer to choose descriptive words and details?
O to connect thoughts logically
O to keep the audience engaged
O to develop a clear thesis statement
O to make the writing seem more formal

Answers

Answer:

to keep the audience engaged

Explanation:

One major reason a writer would decide to choose descriptive words and details is to keep the audience engaged.

Descriptive words are those words that are used to give greater detail about something and writers use this technique in order to have a clear thesis statement.

Explanation:

According to the excerpt from Tell Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe, the narrator talks about how his senses were sharpened and not dulled as most people would imagine. He considered taking the old man's life, not because of some personal slight or to take his property, but because he wanted to end the man's life and rid himself of the pale blue eyes.
