The reader can tell that "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is written in the first person point of view because the main character speaks as herself.
In this story, we can see from the very first sentence that a first-person point of view has been selected. The narrator refers to "myself" in the first line and, in the second line, uses the pronoun "I." The narrator depicts the world as she sees and understands it. The style of writing makes it clear that the narrator is describing the world from her own perspective and understanding: "I would say," "I will proudly declare."
A) through
B) swept
C) devastating
D)valley
Answer:
The answer is indeed letter C) devastating.
Explanation:
Devastating is a present participle. Present participles are formed by adding -ing to a verb, and they can be used as adjectives to indicate that someone or something causes a certain feeling or reaction over someone or something else. For example, from the verb "to exhaust", we can form the present participle "exhausting". If a marathon is exhausting, it means it causes that feeling, it makes people incredibly tired (exhausted).
In the sentence "A devastating fire swept through the valley", "devastating" is the adjective modifying the noun fire. The fire now has a quality - it causes devastation.
The correct salutation is given in option (B): "Dear Dr. Jefferson:" as it denotes a formal tone by using "colon."
"After the salutation, a punctuation mark is used."
In a personal letter, use a comma; in a business letter, use a colon; and in an email, use either punctuation mark. (The colon is a formal punctuation mark.)
But keep in mind that the word "dear" isn't necessary for email, even if you're writing to a stranger.
A salutation often consists of two parts: a greeting or an adjective, and the name or title of the person to whom you're writing.
The salutation in the previous example is made up of an adjective and a name, with no comma between them. A comma should, however, be used to separate a straight greeting from a person's name.
