The correct answer is B. The McCarthy Hearings

Explanation:

Arthur Miller was an American writer and essayist who lived in the 20th century (from 1915 to 2005). One of his most popular works is "The Crucible" a playwright in which Arthur Miller focused on the Salem witch trials that occurred in the Massachusetts Bay colony during the 17th century. However, this theme is only used as an allegory of McCarthyism (one story or message is used to represent another).  McCarthyism refers to Senator Joseph McCarthy (from 1940 to 1950)  who promoted political repression that led to multiple accusations of treason and communist with no evidence and fear in the U.S. for Communism. In this way, "The Crucible" is based on McCarthy hearings as he promoted the persecution of alleged communist, similar to the persecution of the Salem trials, which were used as an allegory of the situation promoted by McCarthy or McCarthyism.

Question 4 (1.5 points)
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Her abuelito's death reminds her that her father could die, too.

Explanation:

Sandra Cisneros' <em>The House on Mango Street</em> from which the short narrative "Papa Who Wakes Up Tired in the Dark" is taken from is about a young girl Esperanza. Her and her family's life in Chicago in Mango Street and her eventual maturity covers the whole book in short stories/ narratives.

In the part "Papa Who Wakes Up Tired in the Dark", Esperanza recalls how her father had woken her up to tell her about her abuelito/ grandfather. She recalls seeing her <em>"brave Papa"</em> cry, a new side of his father that she had never seen or observed. This train of thought led her to think about her own father's death, which made her decision to <em>"hold my Papa in my  arms. I hold and hold and hold him."</em> It reminds her that her own father could die too.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
