write a paragraph analyzing the text structure in the excerpt from a good place for maggie. use textual evidence commentary to answer these questions: why does the author use a flashback in this excerpt? what effect does the flashback create in the plot? how does it create this effect?

In A Good Place for Maggie, the author uses a flashback to create a sense of tension. For example, in one flashback, Maggie describes writing her mother a letter because “her mom and stepfather were away on business.” In her letter, she describes why she chose to leave and asks her mother to “please don’t be mad” at her. This flashback creates a sense of tension between Maggie and her mother. The reader can infer that Maggie did not ask permission to drive to Twisted Creek and that her mother will most likely be upset when she discovers that Maggie is gone. The flashback also builds tension by revealing that Maggie is upset with her mother for being away a lot.

Sample Answer

hey there!

the reasoning behind university’s having students create prompts is to mainly get to know the person better. they want to know their interests, goals, personality,

it’s also a good way for the university to see the persons focuses in life. for example, if someone’s room is very organized and clean, usually all aspects of their life are the same.

so really, having people prompting to apply to a university is so the college can get more information about that person.

hope this you! if you need any more details, i’d be happy to
