Question

My gentleness and good behaviour had gained so far on the emperor and his court, and indeed upon the army and people in general, that I began to conceive hopes of getting my liberty in a short time. I took all possible methods to cultivate this favourable disposition. The natives came, by degrees, to be less apprehensive of any danger from me. I would sometimes lie down, and let five or six of them dance on my hand; and at last the boys and girls would venture to come and play at hide-and-seek in my hair. I had now made a good progress in understanding and speaking the language.The emperor has a mind one day to entertain me with several of the country shows, where in they exceed all nations I have known, both for dexterity and magnificence. I was diverted with none so much as that of the rope-dancers, performed upon a slender white thread, extended about two feet, and twelve inches from the ground. Upon which I shall desire liberty, with the reader's patience, to enlarge a little.

Which point of view is used in this passage?

First-person, because the narrator uses words such as "I" and "my"
Second-person, because the narrator speaks directly to the reader
Third-person limited, because the narrator gives just one character's perspective

Answer 6

Which of the following would best express the most objective or impartial representation of an event?

Speech
Photograph
Cartoon
Editorial

Answer 7

I believe that the answer is C because with a cartoon you can make fun of the event @Englishguy

Answer 8

any idea?

Answer 9

Jamey would know better than me.

Answer 10

who is Jamey?

Answer 11

Englishguy :)

Answer 12

I know it can't be a speech, I also don't think it's an editorial. So that leaves a photograph and a cartoon. I think it's a photograph because it's just a picture of it, you're not taking any sides of an issue in that way. With a cartoon you are making fun of an aspect of a certain thing

Answer 13

Doesn't "objetive" and "impartial" mean the opposite of something? lo like wouldn't a photograph just show the event or am i wrong?

Answer 14

so*

Answer 15

Yep, it would be just showing the event, it wouldn't be explaining anything about it or showing and partiality to any part of it
