inysia [295]1 year ago

The author's choice of words shows society's disregard for the neediest people, which is different from the message about cannibalism that is explicitly described.

<h3>How does the author make the text satire?</h3>
  • He criticizes a social situation.
  • He criticizes in an acidic, but humorous way.
  • He exposes the culprits of the situation.
  • He writes sarcastically and ironically.

A satire is a criticism, made in a subjunctive way, but very acid, violent, and expository, as it shows a serious social problem, its culprits, and the negligent way in which this problem is treated.

In this text, the author shows how cannibalism can be favorable to society, because rich people, who see the poor as social problems, can use them as food and raise them like cattle. That's because rich people are one of the causes of extreme poverty in society, but they don't feel responsible for solving the problem, so it would be better if they consumed the poor.

The author is not defending cannibalism but using this subject to criticize the irresponsibility of high society and the tyrannical and problematic way they act with social problems that do not affect them.

Do a compare and trast of a normal day going to class at school and going to class online Please focus your MOOD, be very clear
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

When I go to class at school, I am most often not excited to be at school, but more or less excited to see my friends. Being strictly in online classes, has mad me very anxious to arrive back at school and get back to my normal social life. I miss being able to talk to my friends and get help on my homework questions. When I do my online courses, I sit alone and the work is extremely tedious. I feel like I am only getting busy worked, which makes the school day feel ten times longer. I do, however, enjoy being able to stop and take breaks whenever I want. It makes me feel more relaxed knowing I am doing my homework at my own pace and am not being rushed. Most often at school, I am anxious over the amount of time I have left for an assigment, while at home I am calm and relaxed because I am on my own schedule. Overall, online classes make me feel at ease, but I feel dismal not being able to see my friends everyday.

Explanation:

- Hope this helps! Although, this is on how you compare online learing versus in-school learning. I would suggest modifying it to fit what you feel.

To what does she compare rituals?in the story rituals of metaphor
RoseWind [281]
In an extended and well-developed metaphor, Blaeser compares the rituals to a loop. In the first paragraph, it is the loops of curly hair that can't ever be brushed and tamed. Any attempt at doing that will cause pain, and fingers can't go through them without getting stuck. She then proceeds to explain that "family, place, and community" are the loop of our identity. We can't get hold of it, we can't unravel it, but we will always be compelled to return to it. They constitute our private "rituals of memory". Those rituals are connected, repeated, and intertwined just like braids of curly hair. If we were to cut them, we would destroy our own identity.
