Let’s say you want to go to one of the theaters for an afternoon performance. If you are heading to the Swan, the Rose, or the Globe you will cross London Bridge or take a wherry across the river and then walk through Paris Garden. All sorts of people will be heading in the same direction: working men in groups, shop owners, gentlemen, householders’ wives accompanied by their servants or husbands, foreign tourists, boys and girls. As you approach the theaters you will notice that they all seem to be round; in fact, they are polygonal—the Globe is twenty-sided, the Rose fourteen-sided. Whichever one you choose, you can expect to queue with two thousand other people to get in. –The Time Traveler’s Guide to Elizabethan England, Ian Mortimer Use the drop-down menus to choose the phrases that reflect each element of Mortimer’s style.

After reading the excerpt, we can answer in the following manner:

- Second-person point of view: "Let's say you want to go to one of the theaters."

- Precise language: "in fact, they are polygonal"

  • In writing, a second-person point of view makes use of second-person pronouns (you, your, and yours).
  • It is used to give readers an explanation, offer them some advice or, as is the case here, to provoke their imagination.
  • When the author says, "Let's say you want to go. . .", readers picture themselves in Elizabethan England, going to one of the theaters.
  • Precise language is the use of words that describe something in detail, in order to make its visualization easier by the reader.
  • The author says that the theaters are polygonal. He even mentions that the Globe is twenty-sided.
  • With that, readers can form a more precise picture of what the theaters looked like.
  • In conclusion, the answers given above are consistent with the definitions of second-person point of view and precise language.
