The antagonist in the story is:

  • Captain Beatty
  • He opposed Montag by making him believe that reading was not important. Beatty discouraged Montag in his quest to begin reading because he narrated a distorted history that explained why book burning was necessary.
<h3 /><h3>Who is an antagonist?</h3>

An antagonist is a villain in a story. In the book Fahrenheit 451, we learn of Montag who was convinced of the importance of reading by a young 13-year-old girl.

When he was confused about the idea of reading, Captain Beatty came to corrupt his mind by telling him that reading was not vital. The irony here is that Captain Beatty read books.

Which of the following claims does Eric Deggans develop in the text ?
Reika [66]

Assuming the text is "Learning How to Code-Switch: Humbling, but Necessary" (2013) and you had to choose between the following claims:

<em>A. Code-switching keeps people from expressing themselves by promoting one correct style of communication.</em>

<em>B. It is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity.</em>

<em>C. The United States consists of great cultural variety and no one should be discriminated against for speaking a certain way.</em>

<em>D. Many successful people have used code-switching, but it is unfair to expect minorities to have multiple communication styles.</em>

Deggans' thesis is that it is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and  celebrate all aspects of their identity (B).

<u>Code-switching</u> means alternating between languages or communication styles according to the context (cultural, professional, casual, etc.).

Deggans' testimony shows that being able to code-switch is what has helped him to integrate social groups which were different from the poor black neighborhood he came from, while maintaining his identity.

This answer is supported by such such quotes as:

  • "expertly navigating another culture wasn’t a  rejection of where I’d come from or a signal that I was any less authentically black;"
  • "it’s a reminder to be fully who you are at all times, while making sure you’re understood well enough to  be valued, respected and considered."

In the story "The Neglected Senses", what does Choden think caused her blindness?
quester [9]

Answer:

Choden believed that when her mother was pregnant with her, a cow kicked her mother's stomach and that led to her blindness.

Explanation:

Choden was a young blind girl who was <em>pink-cheeked</em> and <em>loves to smile.</em> She was one year younger than Yangchen, who was also blind. It is said that most of the time, her eyes were shut but sometimes, s<em>he would open her left eye </em>as if it were consuming the color and light that it sees.

Choden responded to the narrator when asked about what caused her blindness while Choden and Yangchen were guiding the narrator. This belief of hers shows how Tibetan people were conscious about <em>reincarnation</em> and<em> karma. </em>

So, this explains the answer.
