Unit 4: A Fictional Place

Question 2 • *OO-Creative Writing-Cohrs-Q4

Darko’s editor told him he needs to find a way to better convey elapsed time. What is MOST likely the issue with Darko’s writing?

Answer
H
He does not orient readers by providing an exact time of day for each scene.
H
His descriptions lack the texture brought to writing through references to seasons.
H
His imagery lacks sensory information as it fails to mention time of year.
H
He does not give readers a way to measure the length of an action.

Explanation

Elapsed time means how much time passes during an action or between events. If Darko’s editor wants him to convey elapsed time better, Darko likely needs to give readers cues for measuring how long actions take. Choice D describes that issue; the other choices focus on time of day, seasons, or sensory detail.
