The writer demonstrates that is is aware of his audience by writng sentences that <em>flow smoothly from the beginning to the end</em>, including the right punctuation. Sentence fluency refers at <em>how a group of sentences sound</em> when read one after the other, which shows a cohesive writing and the writer's ability to use a variety of structures and sentence lengths.
Answer:
B. The writer is introducing an idea by comparing it to a situation most people would understand or experience.
Explanation: We can tell that the writer is using the first sentence to introduce an idea by comparing it to a situation that most people would understand because that sentence is followed by the statement that, “This is similar to what happens in a community.” The writer explicitly states that the situation outlined in the first sentence is “similar” to what happens in a community. The rest of the paragraph is the writer elaborating on that statement and drawing attention to the shared concept between the two situations of sacrifice for the will of the majority.
Answer:
The sadness of death.
Explanation:
Sandra Cisneros' <em>The House on Mango Street</em> is a collection of short narrative stories about a young girl Esperanza. The book contains numerous short stories under different titles telling a story of specific parts of her life.
The vignette "Papa Who Wakes Up Tired Early in the Dark" tells the story of how his hardworking father had to go to their ancestral home for the death of her abuelito. She saw her "poor papa" crying as if he had just heard the news all over again.
"Born Bad," tells the story of how Aunt Lupe lived her life in darkness, for she was blind. And when she died, Esperanza declares "And then we began to dream the dreams".
"Geraldo No Last Name" is a story about Geraldo who had died in an accident and Marin was the last to see him alive. She did not know his last name, nor does she know a lot about the dead guy for why does it matter? But the narrator states <em>"the ones he left behind are far away, will wonder, shrug. remember. Geraldo-he went north ... we never heard from him again".
</em>
All three vignettes have a common theme of the sadness of the death of a person and how it affects others no matter what they may have thought of him/ her while he/ she was living.
