What is nonfiction? made-up stories true stories long stories short stories

Answers

it is: True Stories

fiction means fake
non-fiction means real
Non-fiction is based around real and true aspects in society. You can find Non-Fiction in library's, shops and many other places, however they are mostly about real artefacts that happened years ago. Non-Fiction is mostly long, but not short stories so don't go thinking about fiction because they are the total opposite!
An example of Non-Fiction is: Vikings! Vikings were real so some people make books about them and what they did in the past.

**Although it was raining fairly hard**, the team played its best game ever.
a.) Noun clause b.) Adjetive clause c.) Adverb clause d.) Independent clause C? Because of the description ?

Answers

1.) A because the phrase is incomplete. 2.) let's see: not noun or independent automatically. No noun found and the phrase doesn't stand alone.
adverb asks how when where or why
Adjective asks what kind how many which one
I would go with Adverb.

1. The answer is A: Phrase fragment.  It doesn't have the complete idea, it is not an independent clause.

2. The answer is C: Adverb clause or Adverbial clause are dependent clause that has the function of an adverb, and connects to the rest of the sentence with a subordinating conjunction. (Description) In the sentence there is the subordinating conjunction Although (making contrast with the main idea).

Which of the following could be used to slow the pace of a story?Parallel plot

Well-known words

Answers

I believe that flashbacks could be used to slow the pace of a story. If you are telling one story, and then decide to introduce a flashback, that would only slow down the story you are already telling. 

When a poet changes the meter in a poem, it forces the reader toA. paraphrase the meaning.
B. emphasize key words.
C. overlook some syllables.
D. focus on figurative language.

Answers

The correct answer should be B. emphasize key words

By changing the meter you change the accentuation pattern which automatically emphasizes some parts of the lines.

Answer: B. emphasize key words I think

Explanation: section 4.3 in Brief History of Poetry in the Meter paragraph it states "Meter is the Greek word for measure. In poetry, we measure by the foot. A poetic foot is composed of two or more accented or unaccented syllables, and the different types of feet describe different patterns of stressed (accented) and unstressed (not accented) syllables. The most common type of foot is the iamb, which consists of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable".
