Your correct on everything
The correct answer is C.
A possible theme of Ovid's "The Story of Daedalus and Icarus" is how human creativity can lead to amazing discoveries, gagdets and inventions; but at the same time these can easily lead to pain and suffering if used in the wrong way.
In the story, Daeadalus was a great inventor, but it was his own device that caused his son's death. Icarus' recklessness lead him to ignore his father's warnings about flying too high or too low, and his wrong usage of the man-made wings lead him to his doom.
Because of the people who encouraged and supported her.
Answer:
The answer is hyperbole.
Explanation:
It's a familiar question.
Also, Hyperbole is an exaggeration. The most blatant display of exaggeration here is the author's description of her laughter.
The following lines show this:
"...and it nearly killed her laughing"
"...she laughed herself lame--she did, indeed;"
She couldn't have possibly laughed herself lame of course but the hyperbole is used in showing how hard she must have laughed at what he was telling her.
Tan uses the word “impeccable” to describe her mother's English.
Answer: D
Explanation
In the story, Tan describes her mother when she shouts a stockbroker's boss using in impeccable English.
This means that even though Tan's mother is not fluent in her English, he still believes that her English is still well enough.
Tan felt the band when he described his mother's English as broken.
This always bothered him and thought it was destroyed and was to be implemented since it lacked sound and wholeness.
Therefore this is the reason why he described it as impeccable.
