Question

1. how might a mostly text account of a news story differ from a mostly visual account of the same event?

a mostly visual account will probably be longer and contain more minor details than a mostly text account.
a mostly text account is more likely to include background information, such as possible causes or effects of the event.
a mostly visual account may include interviews with eyewitnesses, while a text account can contain only description.
a mostly text account gives the author more control over what the audience sees; a mostly visual account is vague about details.

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option A: A mostly visual account being longer with more minor details than a text account is incorrect. Visual accounts (like images, videos) are concise, while text can elaborate more.
• Option B: A text account including background info (causes/effects) is more accurate. Text allows for in - depth explanation of context, while visual accounts focus on the event's visual aspects.
• Option C: A visual account can include interviews (e.g., video interviews) and text can have more than just description (e.g., analysis), so this is wrong.
• Option D: A visual account isn't necessarily vague, and text doesn't give "more control" over what the audience sees in a way that makes this correct. Text can be descriptive, but visual can show details clearly.

Answer:

B. A mostly text account is more likely to include background information, such as possible causes or effects of the event.
