Explanation:

'The Man Who Never Lied' is an African folktale. The tale narrates about a man named Mamad, who is wise aand never lied. When the King get to know about him, he tried to trick him but Mamad passed this trick and proved himself to be a man who never lies.

The author in this story has used dialogue to create an element of surprise for the characters in the story and the reader of the story. The dialogue that illustrates this element best in in option C. This dialogue is spoken by Mamad while having conversation with the Queen. After the King ordered Mamad to tell the Queen to prepare a meal that he will have that noon, Mamad discreetly informs the Queen about the Kings message.

should you be the one doing this journal entry? it says "your special talent or skill". are you gonna lie 'bout your talent and make us fake a talent for you?

also this is a really easy journal entry, you can just think of a skill your good at and write did you work hard to become good at this skill (ex: drawing, writing, math, playing music, etc.) or does it come naturally (like a cool trick that you can do with your body). you can do all of that in 150 words. just try and think of a talent and even if your bad at this talent just say your working hard to become good at it.
