Excerpt from) the creation james weldon johnson and god stepped out on space, and he looked around and said, “i’m lonely— i’ll make me a world.” and far as the eye of god could see darkness covered everything, blacker than a hundred midnights down in a cypress swamp. then god smiled, and the light broke, and the darkness rolled up on one side, and the light stood shining on the other, and god said, “that’s good! ” then god reached out and took the light in his hands, and god rolled the light around in his hands until he made the sun; and he set that sun a-blazing in the heavens. and the light that was left from making the sun god gathered it up in a shining ball and flung it against the darkness, spangling the night with the moon and stars. then down between the darkness and the light he hurled the world; and god said, “that’s good! ” then god himself stepped down— and the sun was on his right hand, and the moon was on his left; the stars were clustered about his head, and the earth was under his feet. and god walked, and where he trod his footsteps hollowed the valleys ouy and bulged the mountains up. then he stopped and looked and saw that the earth was hot and barren. so god stepped over to the edge of the world and he spat out the seven seas; he batted his eyes, and the lightnings flashed; he clapped his hands, and the thunders rolled; and the waters above the earth came down,40 the cooling waters came down. read the passage on the left to answer the following questions: 22) the speaker presents god's creations primarily through a) foreshadowing to prepare readers for each miraculous component. b) sequential narration propelled by conjunctions and transitions. c) fragmented dialogue and informal word choices to establish familiarity. d) descriptions of each spiritual element in order to evoke awe and intrigue.

B is correct just got this wrong on testprep

the hunger games, written by  suzanne collins, is fiction in the young adult genre, which is not my age group, but i found myself unable to put it down. its combination of nerve-racking tension, thrilling action, and engaging love story kept me up until the wee hours. i was surprised at how completely engrossing the plot was. like  brave new world, this story is set in a future where the government oppresses its people, but the book also borrows ideas from the greek myth of theseus and the minotaur.

divided into 12 districts, ruled by an oppressive government located at the  capitol. katniss everdeen, a 16-year-old girl from district 12, takes her younger sister’s place as one of 24 “tributes” selected every year to participate in the hunger games at the capitol.

while i found this book absolutely enthralling, i was surprised it was aimed at an audience of young adults. it seems extremely intense for anyone younger than 16 or 17. for example, there is a scene where one young tribute is slowly eaten alive by wolf-like creatures all night long, and katniss has to finally throw a weapon at him to end his misery. i found this a little too disturbing when i considered the age of the character.

the intensity of the action was something one would find in a more mature book, but the age of the characters and the simplicity of the prose were aimed at a much younger audience. in addition, this book was written in present tense, which i found annoying, but that’s more of a personal preference than a stylistic fault. it was also edited somewhat poorly, but that rarely distracted from the plot. for example, the author often spoke in sentence fragments to describe how katniss felt, which might have been an attempt to reflect on her thought process, but i found it disorienting to read a lot of really short sentences all together. it would have been better to vary the sentence length on occasion, but the story was still coherently.

overall,  the hunger games  was an excellent, enthralling read that i highly recommend. if it was more clearly marked for older teens, it would have been better, but it was a fantastic book with a wonderfully creative plot.

happy to .
