Answer:

The literary device used in this paragraph is Comparison.

Explanation:

As its name suggests, <em>Comparison </em>is the literary device in which the author contrasts two elements to show similarity. In this text, the author explains that the character of Esperanza establishes the comparison between something that should be graceful (as a laughter of a woman) with something terrible to hear (breaking dishes).

Review the conflict from "The Glass of Milk." The boy turns down food offered to him by a sailor on the docks. How does this act
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

A) It escalates the conflict by showing that, despite being very hungry, the boy's pride prevents him from accepting help.

Explanation:

A Glass of Milk is a story by an unknown author, which recounts the experience of a boy who is poor and hungry, yet he is ashamed of his situation and does not want to receive charity from others who offers him food. The sailor situation quote in the question refers to the beginning of the story, where the sailor offers the boy food, yet he declines it, saying he is not hungry despite the fact that he is. This exchange introduces the central conflict of the story.
