Read the following excerpt from the article "Vision, Voice and the Power of Creation: An Author Speaks Out," by T. A. Barron, and answer the question that follows:

Yet deeper than character, or even place, is another concept: voice. More than any other doorway to the imagination, I find this one the trickiest to open-and the hardest to close. For a character's true voice is heard, its tones, cadences, and ideas are long remembered.

The ancients [people from ancient history] used anima, in fact, to describe breath as well as soul. That is wholly appropriate, for in the breath-the voice-of a character lies its essential spirit. If the writer can truly hear the voice of a character, so will the reader.

Which phrase explicitly states the author's attitude about voice?

It is the trickiest door to open.

The ancients invented it.

Only the writer hears it.

The reader will always hear it.

Urgent will give brainliest to the first correct answermeee major test (1) wayne gretzky once said, “you’ll always miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” (2) life would be dull and boring if no one took risks. (3) many people have accomplished astonishing things because they took a risk. (4) in other words, my mind is set on the belief that it’s worthwhile to take risks. (5) one reason to take a risk is that you can learn from your mistakes, and that allows you to accomplish your goal correctly the next time. (6) for instance, the wright brothers dreamed of being able to fly. (7) they decided to invent the airplane. (8) certainly, they weren’t able to construct it perfectly the first time, so they took a risk and kept trying until they finally got it right. (9) because they learned from their mistakes, that encouraged them to continue to work hard and succeed at inventing one of todays most convenient inventions, the airplane. (10) another reason to take risks is that you can form relationships. (11) a good example of this is the play, “novio boy” by gary soto. (12) rudy, the main character, asks patricia, his crush, to go on a date with him. (13) he took a risk because she is older than him, and rudy wasn’t sure of what she would say. (14) fortunately, patricia agreed to go out with him. (15) therefore, taking risks can be positive and you form relationships. (16) in conclusion, you never know what you are capable of until you take a risk. (17) there could be many motives that could make you want to take a risk. (18) the result could turn out to be either good or bad. (19) despite the consequences, you never know what you could achieve before you take the risk. the word "before" does not appropriately connect the two clauses in sentence 19. which word should replace "before"? unless although since after
