Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:is C

Explanation:
Answer 2
Answer: I am not too sure there is a clear answer to this question: in principle, you could hold a speech of 10 minutes on any topic, but the depth of the treatment of the topic would have to be adjusted.

I would choose answer C. the history of modern interior design: describing a history of anything requires a lot of details, and those need time.


Specifically, I find that options A and B are very easily condensed for 10 minutes: they are in any case not good options.

D. depends on whether this is just a general introduction or a very detailed, practically oriented, tutorial.

If the story "Two Kinds" had been told through Suyuan's point of view, what type of narration would be appropriate? A. first-person or third-person limitedB. first-person or third-person omniscient
C. second-person
D. third-person omniscient

Answers

B. first-person or third-person omniscient

If the story "Two Kinds" had been told through Suyuan's point of view, first-person or third-person omniscient type of narration would be appropriate.

If Suyuan would have been the narrator of the story, then the readers would have been more sympathetic towards her than her daughter Jing-mei. The narration of feelings, emotions, and love would have been more in the story. Jing-mei’s frustration and pain of not been the perfect one gets highlighted more through her narration. In the third person omniscient narration, many character’s points of views are kept by the writer.
The correct answer of this question is option A. The type of narration that is appropriate would be first-person or third-person limited. The narration type of story would not be altered. However, there is a change of the tone of the story since Suyuan is the mother of Jing-mei who is the narrator.
