Writing an Argumentative Essay about the Nobel Prize in Literature

Question 1 • English 10 B E-Learning

Which detail from the passage demonstrates an extrinsic motivation?

Answer
A
The narrator imagines being different.
B
The narrator realizes that she tends to sulk.
C
The narrator wants her parents to adore her.
D
The narrator thinks she could become perfect.

Explanation

Extrinsic motivation comes from wanting an outside reward or approval. Wanting her parents to adore her depends on other people’s affection, so it demonstrates extrinsic motivation. Imagining being different or becoming perfect focuses on changing herself, while realizing she tends to sulk is an observation rather than a motivation.
