answers2: Charles Dickens is a good example of an author who used his
words to change things. He used his words/novels to bring societal and
systemic injustice to light so people would know about it and rise up
and change it. His book, The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby,
was instrumental in closing down so-called schools that were little
better than tyrannical institutions where children were malnourished
and abused. Another good example would be Harriet Beecher Stowe when
she wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin. She really showed people the horrors of
slavery (not long before the Civil War). To Kill a Mockingbird by
Harper Lee was another book that had a great influence, because it
portrayed the reality of racism. I hope this helps.
answers3: The correct answer is A. In a Author and You QAR you are
using information that would not be found in the text, personally
knowledge. At the same time it requires information out of the text or
passage as well. These question are almost always based on comparing
yourself to the author.
