Answer:

b) Metaphor

Explanation:

Using one object to symbolize another is known as a metaphor. One of my favorite lines from the poem "Queen of the Cats" describes how the cat's eyes would literally "spark with firelight fantasies" as she gazed into the flames.

Because the cat's imagination is represented by the firelight, this is a metaphor. Poets may employ metaphors to help their readers envision their work in a new manner. Firelight serves as a metaphor in this poem for the cat's eyes, which seem bright and full of imagination.

In about 250 words, describe how the themes in "The Man Who Was Almost a Man" interact and build on each other.
vesna_86 [32]

There are two main themes that dominate the story "The Man Who Was Almost a Man" by Richard Wright. These two themes interact and build on each other throughout the story.

The first theme is that of power. This is clear throughout the story in all the decisions Dave makes. In the story, Dave wants to own a gun. However, the gun is seen as a way to become powerful and masculine, something he has been denied. He cannot keep the money he earns, he has to obey his parents, he is not respected among his peers. This leads him to want to accomplish power in any way he can find. Moreover, he is denied this autonomy because of racial reasons.

On the other hand, the story also has a component of a coming-of-age story. Dave wants to achieve autonomy, and he wants to be able to act freely. He also wants to be more independent and more of an adult, which in turn signifies more power. This is why he gets the gun. And in this way, both themes are related and build on each other. However, Dave discovers that having more power does not equal being more of an adult.

what misunderstanding occurs early in the story between the grandma and the narrator. please use evidence from "the horned toad"
Paha777 [63]

The misunderstanding that occurs early in the story "The Horned Toad" by Gerald Haslam between the grandma and the narrator is generated by communication barrier.

The grandma does not speak any other language except Spanish.  This was too hard for the narrator to understand.  There is a lack of communication caused by language barrier between the grandma and her grandson, the narrator.

Thus, the narrator felt insecure about the presence of his grandma, who came over to live with the extended family in California.
