Answer:

A) Dee has distanced herself so much from her mother and Maggie that seeing their house was like seeing an exhibit in a museum.

Explanation:

One of the major themes of the story "Everyday Use" by Alice Walker is the importance of culture. The story reflects on the issue that a culture can be best preserved and respected by living it in its way instead of preserving it and carrying it away. Culture isn't preserved by distancing oneself from it and holding it under the veil of preserving it. Dee clicked the pictures of her mother, Maggie, and the house so that she can preserve those as a symbol of her culture.

Which term refers to words or ideas that are clearly expressed and leave no question as to their meaning?
Drupady [299]

Answer: A. Explicit.

Explanation: Explicit means something fully revealed or expressed without vagueness, implication, or ambiguity, it is the opposite of implicit (something suggested but not communicated directly). So the definition "words or ideas that are clearly expressed and leave no question as to their meanings" is referring to the meaning of "explicit", therefore the correct answer is the corresponding to option A.

“Two Kinds'' and “Daughter of Invention” deal with characters seeking to fit into American life.
babunello [35]

In both texts, mothers try to create behaviors in themselves and their children that they perceive as representative of the American dream, as shown in the last answer option.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The two texts show how cultural heritage, immigration, and the difference between generations are something in conflict in people's lives.
  • In the texts, the main characters struggle to integrate into American culture, maintain their origins and respond to the expectations of their fathers, especially the mothers.
  • Writing moms have a strong vision of the American dream and what it represents.
  • Both want their children to realize this utopia, as they see it as a form of success and parental quality.

However, this vision of the American dream, and the way these mothers want their children to fit into American culture, can hinder them in creating a proper cultural identity and life in society.
