The story “<em><u>Broken Chain</u></em>” is written by <u>Gary Soto </u>and it deals with the teenager struggles that arise in Alfonso’s life. He doesn’t like the way he looks but he wants so badly to impress a girl named Sandra.
Question: A student is writing a paragraph about "Broken Chain" that makes the point that Alfonso’s conflict in the story is mainly an internal one. What would be the best illustration of this point?
Answer: A. He hates the way he looks and spends hours “trying to herd his teeth into place with his thumb.”
Answer:
Monsieur Ratignolle's reaction to Arobin's remark reveals:
D. Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
Explanation:
In Kate Chopin's "The Awakening", characters Monsieur Alphonse Ratignolle and Alcée Arobin seem to function as each other's foil. That is, they are each other's opposite, one seeming to enhance the qualities of the other precisely because of such difference.
<u>Arobin is a womanizer - a Don Juan type. He has a more carefree way of viewing and facing life. As a matter of fact, he becomes the main character's - Edna - lover. On the other hand, Monsieur Ratignolle is a role model of character and faithfulness. He and his wife seem to represent the ideal married couple. Ratignolle is regarded by his community as an example of integrity.</u>
With that in mind, we can easily choose letter D as the best option: Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
The correct answer is C. There is no shame in needing help. The boy who was very very proud refused to ask for help, however, when he was near starvation, he finally did ask for help and was given a glass of milk. The girl who helped him asked nothing in return and showed that people can be good to other people, and that he should have simply asked for help, any good person would have helped him.
Odysseus taunts Polyphemus and he tells the giant his name.
Hope this helps! :)
