"stage manager:

well. now we're ready to get on with the wedding.

there are a lot of things to be said about a wedding; there are a lot of thoughts that go on during a wedding. we can't get them all into one wedding, naturally, and especially not into a wedding at grover's corners, where they're awfully plain and short."

what is significant about the language in this excerpt from our town? select all that apply.
a) it lacks specificity.
b) it creates an enthusiastic tone.
c) it makes weddings seem dull and uninspiring.
d) it encourages the audience to make inferences about weddings.

The correct answers are:

A), C) and D)

Explanation:

A) Lack of Specificity: The speaker in this excerpt suggests that there are a lot of things to be said about a wedding but makes no mention about any of them.

C) The speakers language does not create any enthusiasm towards weddings at all. His choice of words such as "awfully", "Plain", "Short", rather than enthuse the receiver of such an information would rather make them uninterested.

D) Stimulating Inferences about weddings: The mind is wired to fill in blanks and recognise patterns. When the speakers states that there are a lot of things to be said but says none, then goes on to say that they are awfully, plain, and short, it leaves room for one to create a picture for themselves about what he or she actually means.

Cheers!
