Question 522 • Crowley Credit Recovery Algebra II B
Read the passage from Sophie’s paper on Response to Erik of Sweden.Although Queen Elizabeth is polite, she also seems a bit annoyed. For example, she says, "It seems strange for your Serene Highness to write that you understand from your brother and your ambassadors that we have entirely determined not to marry an absent husband; and that we shall give you no certain reply until we shall have seen your person.”
Answer
A
clarifying the overall purpose of the text.
B
adopting a second-person point of view.
C
adding implicit information to her conclusion.
D
using textual evidence to support her inference.
Explanation
Sophie makes an inference that Queen Elizabeth is both polite and annoyed, then quotes a specific line from the response as evidence. The quotation supports her interpretation of Elizabeth’s tone, so she is using textual evidence to support her inference. The example does not mainly clarify the paper’s overall purpose or shift to a second-person point of view.
