Some nights, though, if she got a good idea, she rushed into Yoyo's room, a flushed look on her face, her tablet of paper in her hand, a cursory knock on the door she'd just thrown open. "Do I have something to show you, Cuquita!"

–"Daughter of Invention,"
Julia Alvarez

C) some nights; knock on the door

Which words in the dialogue should you emphasize when reading aloud this passage?

Respuesta :

B) rushed into; thrown open

This is the correct answer for the first question. The words "rushed into" and "thrown open" show the eagerness of the girl to share her news. The other choices do not help you understand the tone. While "a good idea" tells you it is something positive, "Yoyo's room" does not give any indication of tone, however.

C) I; you; Cuquita

These are the only words from the excerpt that are dialogue. Dialogue is what a character speaks out loud. All of the other options are part of the narration. The words "I", "you", and "Cuquita" should also be emphasized to clearly indicate the excitement the speaker feels for her news that she is to share.

Certain words in a passage help to impact meaning into a text. The words that help me to understand the tone of the text is;

  • 2. C) I; you; Cuquita

The terms "rushed open" and "thrown open" impact the idea of urgency in the text. Thus, the reader feels the excitement and speed with which the girl rushed into Yoyo's room.
