1In short prose fiction, what does 'show, don't tell' most accurately require of the writer?
A.Reveal character and situation through concrete action, dialogue, and sensory detail rather than abstract summary
B.Never use any exposition or backstory in the entire story
C.Write only in present tense so events feel immediate
D.Replace all adjectives with adverbs for stronger emphasis
Explanation: Showing dramatises experience through scene, gesture, dialogue, and sensory particulars so readers infer meaning. Telling summarises states or judgments.
2Which statement best describes narrative point of view in a short story?
A.The grammatical person and epistemic stance through which the story's events are filtered for the reader
B.The author's real-life biography printed as a footnote
C.The physical location where the story is set
D.The publisher's preferred house style for italics
Explanation: Point of view combines person with how much the narrator knows and how reliable that filter is.
3In creative nonfiction, what does the 'truthfulness' obligation most carefully mean for ENS315124 writers?
A.Avoiding personal voice so the piece reads like a lab report
B.Inventing scenes freely as long as the emotional arc feels authentic
C.Compressing research, lived experience, and reflection without fabricating facts presented as true
D.Copying encyclopedia entries without attribution because nonfiction is public knowledge
Explanation: Module 2 may shape scene and chronology, but material presented as fact should not be invented.

A.To argue briefly where, why, and for whom the piece would be published, signalling professional awareness
B.To list every draft filename and software version used
C.To summarise classroom attendance and workshop hours for TASC
D.To replace the creative text if the folio exceeds the word range
Explanation: Each folio text has a pitch situating audience, publication context, and purpose.
5Which revision move most clearly strengthens manuscript-standard prose?
A.Leaving first-draft clichés because authenticity requires unedited language
B.Changing fonts randomly between paragraphs to create 'visual energy'
C.Cutting redundant phrases, clarifying pronoun reference, and tightening syntax for precision
D.Adding more abstract intensifiers such as 'very', 'really', and 'extremely' throughout
Explanation: Manuscript polish targets clarity, economy, and control.
6What does 'diction' refer to in writing craft?
A.The writer's patterned word choice and register shaping tone and meaning
B.The number of chapters in a novel
C.The page margins required by a publisher
D.The chronological order of workshop feedback rounds

A.Language that appeals to the senses to create vivid mental pictures and atmosphere
B.A list of every image file embedded in a multimodal folio
C.The copyright status of photographs used in research

A.The arrangement of words and clauses that shapes rhythm, emphasis, and meaning
B.The genre label printed on a magazine cover
C.The spell-check dictionary installed on a laptop
D.The total word count of a Writer's Folio submission
Explanation: Syntax governs how phrases combine; revision often targets sentence structure.

B.A physical fight that must occur on the first page
C.A disagreement between the writer and the teacher about grades
