Answer: the correct aequence is 1.- No one of the alternatives given 2.- A) Destiny chose to take art instead of music because she enjoyed art more. 3.-First person 4.-The author's purpose can help the reader see the author's viewpoint. 5.-To entertain the reader with a thrilling story about traveling through the desert. 6.- Extreme heat causes the travelers to need more water than they brought with them. 7.- Desperate 8.-the tone shifts from anxious to excited 9.- I live in Atlanta, Georgia with my mom, dad, and siblings. 10.- In high school, students learn subjects like Science, Math, English, and Social Studies.

Explanation: In number 1, all of the alternatives are point of views but the third-person omniscient is more complex because it is a method of storytelling in which the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of all of the characters in the story. The narrator doesn't offer a point of view but all the points of view, that's why I consider all of the alternatives as point of views.

In number 7 the narrator is desperate because he says: "... struggled up, but my leaden feet almost refused to bear me..." the he says:“I can do no more; I am done!” meaning he is getting to the point of despairing.

Answer 1:

(B) Third person omniscient

This point of view still practices the "he/she/it" narration but now the narrator knows everything. The narrator isn't defined by what one character understands, sort of like the storyteller is God. The narrator can know everything that others don't, can make observations about what's happening and can see inside the thoughts of other characters.

Answer 2:

(B) Destiny chose to take art instead of music because she enjoyed art more.

A third-person objective narrator is one who narrates a story from the third-person point of view (''he/she'' as narrator). Here, the storyteller is an unbiased observer: readers can only obtain knowledge about the roles and plot events in a descriptive, objective manner. An objective narrator holds in opposition to an omniscient narrator, who can explain events and other characters to an extensive degree.

Answer 3:

(A) First person

Answer 4:

(C) The author's purpose can help the reader see the author's viewpoint.

Te story tends to promote the beauty of African and its people. It also talks about the travelling experience that they had while reaching the through a lot of deserts. It also helps the reader to understands the over all hurdles that comes while travelling to deserted areas.

Answer 6:

(C) Extreme heat causes the travelers to need more water than they brought with them.

As the authors talks about the trilling travelling experience they had in this story, like wise in this question the travelers explains that they got short on the amount of water they bought. This was due to extreme hot conditions which made them drink more and more water,and as last thirsty.

In the passage above Muhammad firstly yelled in anger by pointing towards the south. In the meantime the train/caravan stopped and everyone was prepare to run. But then suddenly the tone of anger shifts to excitement when Muhammad sees the palm trees.


Answer 9:

I live in Atlanta, Georgia with my mom, dad and siblings.

The main purpose of capitals is to give consideration to appropriate elements within any group of people, places, or things. We can address a lake in the centre of the country, or we can be more particular and say Lake Michigan, which separates it from every other lake on earth.

In high school, students learn subjects like Science, Math, English, and Social Studies.

Capitalization is the writing of a statement with its first letter in uppercase and the other letters in lowercase. There are few rules used in this process:
