Answer:
I won't write your essay, but I'll give you some help with it.
Explanation:
Dialogue's role is for characters in the story to be able to communicate. The role in the main conflict can be a few different things. I've read books in where the people in the conflict yelled at each other. To be able to have characters yell, you need dialogue.
Hope this helps.
What were they making in the Triangle Factory?
Say Yes to the SAT
(1) Some people are afraid of the SAT because of what it measures: general intelligence. (2)There is no need for fear, however, because as this essay will show, the SAT is a good general intelligence test. (3) Researchers at the University of Minnesota found that the SAT is not only an accurate predictor of how a student will fare during his or her first year of college but also a reliable predictor of how a student will do during all four years of college.
(4) There is no denying that sometimes the SAT does not do its job. (5) Occasionally, a student who earns a high SAT score ends up flunking out of college. (6) Occasionally, a student who earns a low SAT score ends up in Phi Beta Kappa (a collegiate academic honor society) and graduates with highest honors. (7) The SAT is not perfect, but that is not a reason to get rid of it.
(8) Like it or not, the general intelligence for which the SAT tests is what will separate students who will do well and fit in at schools such as Harvard and Princeton from students who will be better off attending community college first. (9) Unfortunately, hard work is not always enough, and that is why the SAT is here to stay.
(10) Naysayers do not like the idea of a test that cannot be mastered with old-fashioned hard work. (11) In school, a student who devotes hours and hours of time to studying for a course can typically raise his or her grade. (12) If the same student devotes just as much time to studying for the SAT, his or her score will not increase significantly.
What is the most effective way to improve the organization of this passage?
A.
Switch the fourth paragraph (sentences 10-12) with the first paragraph (sentences 1-3).
B.
Switch the second paragraph (sentences 4-7) with the first paragraph (sentences 1-3).
C.
Switch the second paragraph (sentences 4-7) with the fourth paragraph (sentences 10-12).
D.
Switch the third paragraph (sentences 8-9) with the fourth paragraph (sentences 10-12).
The most effective way to improve the organization of this passage would be:
C. Switch the second paragraph (sentences 4-7) with the fourth paragraph (sentences 10-12).
The current organization starts with an introductory paragraph stating reasons why some people fear the SAT. The next paragraph then discusses some of the drawbacks and imperfections of the SAT. However, it makes more sense to first address the counterarguments and criticisms of the SAT before discussing why it is a generally good intelligence test.
By switching the second paragraph with the fourth paragraph, the passage would flow better:
- Current Paragraph 4 addresses the criticisms of the SAT by "naysayers"
- Then current Paragraphs 1-3 could respond to those criticisms and argue that the SAT is still a good intelligence test
Overall, switching those two paragraphs - the criticisms (current P4) then the response (current P1-3) - would improve the logical organization and flow of ideas in the passage.
C. Switch the second paragraph (sentences 4-7) with the fourth paragraph (sentences 10-12).
The passage discusses the general theme of why people fear the SAT, it's drawbacks, criticisms and counterarguments. The title of the passage- 'Say Yes to the SAT' reveals that the ultimate point being made by the author is in support of the test.
Therefore, it makes sense to first discuss people's opinions countering the author's before getting to the main point of why it is a good measure of intelligence. Hence switching the second paragraph, which speaks in favour of the SAT, with the fourth, which criticizes the test, will make the flow of ideas better and the logic of the argument stronger.
The new paragraphs 1-3 would then talk about the fear, criticism and misassumptions and finally the fourth paragraph would conclude in favor of the author's argument.

You are asked to revise the following sentence so it contains no dangling or misplaced modifiers:
We hid behind the bushes waiting for squirrels holding our cameras.
Which choice is the best answer?
There is no revision needed. The original sentence is correct as it is.
Holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes waiting for squirrels.
Holding our cameras, we waited for squirrels hiding behind the bushes.
We waited for squirrels hiding behind the bushes holding our cameras.
Answer: Holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes and waited for squirrels.
Explanation:
The original sentence, "We hid behind the bushes waiting for squirrels holding our cameras," contains a dangling modifier. It suggests that the squirrels were holding our cameras instead of us. To correct this, we need to rephrase the sentence so that the subject doing the action is mentioned.
One possible revision is, "Holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes and waited for squirrels." This revision ensures that the phrase "holding our cameras" correctly modifies "we." It conveys that while holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes and waited for squirrels.
By rephrasing the sentence, we maintain clarity and remove any imprecision regarding who is holding the cameras and waiting for the squirrels. This revision improves the sentence's structure and eliminates the issue of dangling or misplaced modifiers.

Sharks' Teeth
By Langston Carter
The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.
We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.
