Question

1. what is the most likely reason the author uses a chronological structure (order of happening) in paragraphs 5-25 of \good enough\?

to emphasize how much joey has improved since the beginning of the basketball season

to reveal how joeys thoughts about his teammates change over time

to show how an ordinary day becomes meaningful through small moments

to demonstrate how joeys regret motivates him to improve his basketball skills

Explanation:

A chronological structure (order of happening) in a narrative often unfolds events as they occur over time. If the paragraphs 5 - 25 of "Good Enough" follow a day's events, showing how small moments in that day give it meaning aligns with using chronology to depict the progression of a day and its significance. The other options: emphasizing improvement since the start of the season would likely need a structure comparing start and later, not just a day's chronology; revealing thoughts about teammates over time would focus more on Joey's internal thoughts across time rather than a day's events; demonstrating regret motivating improvement would focus on Joey's regret and action, not a day's chronological events.

Answer:

To show how an ordinary day becomes meaningful through small moments
