What type of detail does Child use in the passage?
What information does Child intentionally leave out of
the passage?
Readers are human, and humans seem programmed to
wait for answers to questions they witness being asked. I
learned that fact in my first job. I worked in television
production from 1977 until 1995, and the business
changed radically during that time, mainly because of one
particular invention. It was something that almost no one
had in 1980, and that almost everyone had in 1990, and it
changed the game forever.
