Question

1. what is wrong with the following theme statement? choose all that apply. you should always speak up for others when you see injustice occurring. it specifically mentions the text. it contains an absolute. it contains a cliché statement. it addresses the reader (using you, us, or we). it doesnt include the authors information.

Explanation:

• The word "always" is an absolute, making the statement too rigid.
• The idea of speaking up against injustice is a common - place or cliché sentiment.
• Using "you" addresses the reader directly, which is not ideal for a theme statement that should be more universal and less directive.

Answer:

It contains an absolute.
It contains a cliché statement.
It addresses the reader (using 'you', 'us', or 'we').
