Answer:

In "Once Upon a Time." For example, she writes, "my windowpanes are thin as rime, could shatter like a wineglass." In this example, she uses a simile comparing her windowpanes to rime, or the frost that forms on surfaces, to convey how thin her windows are. Later, she writes, using personification, "the arrhythmia of my heart was fleeing, knocking this way and that against its body-cage." In this example, the author compares her irregular heartbeat to a creature who's trying to escape from its cage.

Answer: Gordimer´s political beliefs are reflected in this story in a way that she puts her view with the device os negatie dialects. For example: “art is the negative knowledge of the actual world” (“Reconciliation Under Duress” ). Rather, art explores what is not known and as Adorno explains, “art does not become knowledge with reference to mere immediate reality” . Throughout her novels, Gordimer avoids references to the “immediate reality.” As Ettin explains, we never get a full picture of the plot and instead the reader must orient himself by  considering what has not been said. As Gordimer draws on the theories of Adorno, she portrays  the strong appeal of this German, Jewish theorist, further distancing herself from the genre of black authors and redefining the objective of a political novel.

2. Which quotation from the passage best demonstrates the impact of the Greensboro Four's protests ?
sveta [45]

Answer:

D but read below.

Explanation:

I think it is D.

The problem is that none of the others, good as they are, do not summarize what actions were taken.

D doesn't really either. What it summarizes is that some of their actions had international implications.

C talks about the nature of the people, not the effect of their actions.

B talks about what was there that they had to fight against. It is wonderful to know that that was what motivated them to be who they were, but it does not answer the question.

A goes along with B. It was an incident that showed what was there. It does not fully answer the question.

This is a very difficult question to answer because none talk about what really happened that made their actions international. I am in awe of what they did and said and what they thought, but only D says what the effect was.

I can be wrong, but I'd still stick with D. If you get it wrong, you can claim it is a poor question (which it is). But I wouldn't push it.
