Read the excerpt from Flannery O'Connor's "The Life You Save May Be Your Own."
The daughter could not see far in front of her and continued to play with her fingers. Although the old woman lived in
this desolate spot with only her daughter and she had never seen Mr. Shiftlet before, she could tell, even from a
distance, that he was a tramp and no one to be afraid of. His left coat sleeve was folded up to show there was only
half an arm in it and his gaunt figure listed slightly to the side as if the breeze were pushing him. He had on a black
town suit and a brown felt hat that was turned up in the front and down in the back and he carried a tin tool box by a
handle. He came on, at an amble, up her road, his face turned toward the sun which appeared to be balancing itself
on the peak of a small mountain.
What technique does O'Connor use in the paragraph to create compelling characters?
detailed descriptions

believable motivations

Read the passage from a vindication of the rights of woman. that the society is formed in the wisest manner, whose constitution is founded on the nature of man, strikes, in the abstract, every thinking being so forcibly, that it looks like presumption to endeavour to bring forward proofs; though proof must be brought, or the strong hold of prescription will never be forced by reason; yet to urge prescription as an argument to justify the depriving men (or women) of their natural rights, is one of the absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense. does wollstonecraft maintain an objective tone in the passage? yes, because she uses objective language such as “society is formed in the wisest manner.” yes, because she uses objective language such as “it looks like presumption to endeavor.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “though proof must be brought, or the strong hold.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense.”
