Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read this excerpt from james baldwin's "notes of a native son":the day of my father's funeral had also been my nineteenth birthday. as we drove him to the graveyard, the spoils of injustice, anarchy, discontent, and hatred were all around us. it seemed to me that god himself had devised, to mark my father's end, the most sustained and brutally dissonant of codas. and it seemed to me, too, that the violence which rose all about us as my father left the world had been devised as a corrective for the pride of his eldest son.which sentence best explains how the structure of the excerpt supports the author's purpose?
a.it ties baldwin's father's funeral to his birthday and shows that the author is angry that his father died on that day. b.it compares a term signifying the end of a musical piece with his father's death to illustrate the finality of death. c.it contrasts the somber mood of a funeral procession with the happy memories baldwin has about his father. d.it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Answer:
d. it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Explanation:
The text above was taken from the autobiography of a black author, who wanted to show the violence, intolerance and injustices that racism caused in a society. He presents these themes well in the excerpt shown above, where the structure allows the author to interweave elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hate is destructive and how it shook his family and transformed a moment of celebration into a moment of mourning.
Nathaniel is correct because all fractions r rational
Answer:
okay so i wrote you an introduction on "Frosty the Snowman". You can pretty much change around the words so it fits a lot of circumstances. Change december to summer... that kinda thing. Fit the vibe you're going for. Pretty much just add extra words, spice it up, just try and get the word count up.
Good luck! :)
Explanation:
There's nothing like sitting down with your family, getting close, all laughing together. Just being in eachother's presence, and spending time together. Some of my happiest memories from childhood were spent just like that. Surrounded by the people I love, making memories that I didn't know would last a lifetime. Every year when December rolls around, I get so excited. It is for a very specific reason.
From as young as I can remember, my mom was obsessed with 'Frosty the Snowman'. It was not only a classic film, but it is her favorite. Each year on December 1st my mom would reveal the old, classic, Christmas movie while we all gathered around. We would get blankets, and she would make hot chocolate. Everything about December 1st movie night is magical to me, and I owe it all to 'Frosty the Snowman'.
A) is right because the way you set goals is have a goal use an action plan to reach it but keeping a detailed journal is nagging you about it 24/7
