i was always taught to say attempt instead of does, because you dont KNOW if the writers words have x effect on the reader. eg "through this, the writer attempts to elicit x response in the reader" instead of "through this, the writer elicits x response in the reader"

Thanks :D

Good luck everyone - 3 hours of intense concentration and writing until your heart bleeds and your hand cramps...and then remember - no more VCE English. Ever. Again. Although if your heart actually bled then the English exam would be the least of your concerns...

Such vicious attacks, such unbridled aggression. Truly a savage of our times.
