Answer 1

Answer:

The sentence from "Fish Cheeks" that is meant to entertain readers is the following:

A. A slimy rock cod with bulging fish eyes that pleaded not to be thrown into a pan of hot oil.

When authors wish to entertain readers, they strive to write something funny and interesting.

In "Fish Cheeks," a short story by Amy Tan, the author seeks to entertain readers by describing the food being cooked by the narrator's mother in a detailed and interesting way.

Of course, a living fish could not plead, much less a dead one. But such a description evokes an image for the reader.

We can imagine the poor fish with its big eyes, begging not to be fried.

Impossible as it is, the description is funny and entertaining.

1. Choose the sentence that is punctuated correctly. (Points : 1) "It's a sunny day. Let's go for a picnic, she said. I'll make lunch."

"It's a sunny day. Let's go for a picnic," she said. "I'll make lunch."

"It's a sunny day." "Let's go for a picnic, she said. I'll make lunch."

"It's a sunny day." "Let's go for a picnic," she said. "I'll make lunch."
