00:44

one into primarily through what I have no choices metaphors

00:49

illusions hyperbolic statements juxtaposition in percent of kids Alright let's

00:53

skim back the lines one and two way up here

00:56

No one who had ever seen Catherine Morland in her

00:59

infancy would have supposed her born to be an heroin

01:04

You can tell this is written in British Americans All

01:07

right well let's think about it Throughout passage the narrator

01:09

make statements about Catherine Moreland's family personality and you know

01:13

inclinations which she immediately contrast with those of a heroine

01:18

The author states that everything was against her in line

01:21

01:24

rest of the first three paragraphs well they serve as

01:26

a list of reasons why no one would have supposed

her born to be an heroine So the answer here

01:58

used to illustrate Katherine's own attempts to be a heroine

02:01

was we say not and but they don't support the

02:05

point made in her first two sentences So get rid

02:07

of B If anything narrator understates Katherine's abilities calling her

02:11

occasionally stupid in line thirty five So we just get

02:15

rid of that in a duck with a left hook

02:17

that's coming in our heads So that's it The answer 00:02:19.118 --> [endTime] is D is in dog
