Type of Speech

Purpose

Answer 1

I don’t have the text of paragraph 34, so I can’t pick definitively. Paste that paragraph (or tell me whether Katherine is speaking alone or with others and whether she’s addressing the audience) and I’ll choose.

Meanwhile, here’s a quick guide so you can drag the correct answers yourself:

- Type of Speech
- Choose "soliloquy" if Katherine is speaking alone (or thinking aloud to the audience) with no other characters responding.
- Choose "dialogue" if she’s speaking with other characters and they interact.

- Purpose
- Choose "to share Katherine’s inner thoughts directly with the audience" if the paragraph is Katherine revealing private thoughts/feelings to the audience (typical of a soliloquy).
- Choose "to share Katherine’s thoughts and feelings with other characters" if she’s telling other characters how she feels (typical of dialogue).
- Choose "to help readers sympathize with Katherine" if the paragraph’s main aim is to elicit the reader’s sympathy (this can be true of either soliloquy or dialogue, but is a rhetorical purpose rather than a speech form).
- Choose "to show Katherine’s interaction with other characters" if the paragraph focuses on back-and-forth with others (this points to dialogue).

If you paste paragraph 34 I’ll put the exact answers and a brief rationale.
