One of the bolded words is: "the roar of a bulldozer..." and this is used to create imagery and dramatic effect of the careless action of the construction company and their apparent disregard for the gopher tortoise that is listed as a protected species.

Another bolded part is shown in: "the darkness hugs you tightly in its arms and you are gone" as imagery is used again as the speaker wants to be as visually descriptive as possible to show the audience just how helpless the tortoises were and how callous the construction company was.

<h3>What is Imagery? </h3>

This refers to the use of visually descriptive words to show and create a mental image in the minds of the readers about the thing that is being described.

Hence, we can see that another bolded part goes thus: <em>"yes—they were very responsible" </em>which makes use of sarcasm to show the irresponsibility of the construction company and also how they were responsible for the loss of over a dozen gopher turtles who called Open Prairie their home.

The narrator visits her new school for the first time .what does the narrators first encounter with the school setting indicate
Bad White [126]

Answer:

I think its based on perception. Like if the narrator comments on the people, setting, look, then you could say they're superficial however this could also mean that they value their own image or how they look to others.

If the narrator comments on the "aesthetic" and the aura they get, (the typical stepping into a new area and a gust of wind flies through their hair), this could mean they're easily intimidated or passive.

Lol this is a very vague question but I hope this helped!
