QUESTION #5353
Question 1
Text 1: Graphic novels are gaining popularity, but they shouldn't be deemed literature. Literature, by definition, uses only language to tell stories, whereas graphic novels rely on images and use text minimally. Text 2: Graphic novels use both text and imagery to tell a story. Without the dialogue, the images wouldn't be fully understood; the meaning comes from the blend of both. Furthermore, the writing in many graphic novels is as high-quality as standard prose. Based on the texts, how would the author of Text 2 most likely respond to the overall argument presented in Text 1?
Correct Answer Explanation
Text 2 argues that language is essential and often high-quality in graphic novels, directly countering Text 1's claim that they use language only sparingly.
