in the year of our lord seventeen hundred and twelve, at
the village of christchurch, the members of our
congregation were first visited by the spirits.
which statement best explains the relationship between the author's choice
to begin the story this way and the effect it has on the reader?
o
a. the inclusion of a supernatural element leads the reader to
recognize this story as being concerned with spiritual matters.
o
b. beginning the story with something that happened in the past
leads the reader to assume that he or she will be familiar with the
events to come
o
c. the inclusion of a specific location leads the reader to suspect
that the story will be a social critique.
o
d. the tone of the language leads the reader to understand that love
story will be relayed by a figure of authority.

a, b, and c are all correct.

hmm, sadly there is no dialogue. there is no place in the story where he is talking to anyone. it's more of just describing what he eats and where he sleeps. you have to become anne frank, give details of where you are, what other folks look like, how the environment is. have a little bit of dialogue tell of what people are specifically saying. anne frank talked about her entire household including the people, the objects, the lighting, the food they ate, and even the smell in the air. there has to be more to your diary entries, the whole story in its current state is only about peter van daan, the food, the sounds, and where he sleeps. also he seems to be writing only once a year yet more than that happened from day to day. for a friend, i can you write it out, if you want.

may i you with anything?
