To complete the activity, you should categorize the paragraph based on its writing style. Here’s how you can classify it:
-
Descriptive: The paragraph uses detailed imagery to convey the emotions and setting of the moment. Words like "slowly walked out," "heads down," and "mind focused" provide insight into the characters' state of mind and the atmosphere surrounding the game.
-
Active: The actions of Ben and Chris, as they approach the bench and interact with their coach, create a sense of immediacy and engagement. Their confident declaration of "We've got this!" adds a dynamic element to the narrative.
So you would place "descriptive" and "active" in their respective response areas:
- Response area 1: descriptive
- Response area 2: active
