The answer is D. I feel that the catalogue is very important to Dave. He holds the book under his arm. If he didn't care about the book, he wouldn't hold it so tight.

Match the definition to the word. 1. a thing that represents itself and something else]a. symbolb. imageryc. metaphord. metonymy

mojhsa [17]

A thing that represents itself and something else – symbol. An example would be the dove, or the colour white, symbolizing peace.
One thing IS another – metaphor. What distinguishes the metaphor from the simile is that the metaphor is directly introducing the imagery in the text without a comparison word. An example would be: "he is such a pig."
One thing is like another – simile. The simile introduces the comparison with a word such as "like" or "as." "He eats like an ogre" could be an example.
Mental pictures created through descriptions which appeal to the senses – imagery. In literature, the purpose of imagery is to enrich the text by enabling the reader to picture elements of it in their mind.
Use of one word in place of another word associated with it – metonymy. A common type of metonymy is the designation of something by where it is contained, for example "the White House" for the President's administration.
A word which imitates a sound – onomatopoeia. Such as woof, crack, bang.
Exaggeration – hyperbole.
Apparent contradiction – paradox.
Repetition of initial consonant sounds – alliteration. This is often used in poetry, but also in prose, to help the reader imagine the sounds of the scene which is being described (like lots of Ls when writing about water, or Ss when writing about a snake).

What insight do we get into Curley's wife's way of life? Do you have newfound sympathy for her?

Sauron [17]

Answer:

From the beginning it was his intention to have her killed by Lennie.

Explanation:

. From the beginning it was his intention to have her killed by Lennie. Lennie has to do something terrible and unforgivable in order for George to decide to shoot him. This is what the story is about: a man kills his best friend out of compassion. Naturally we feel sorry for Curley's wife--but Steinbeck doesn't want us to feel too sorry for her because that would make us feel less sorry for Lennie as well as for George. Steinbeck inserted that memorable scene in which the girl frightens and humiliates Crooks in order to make her seem somewhat less sympathetic. Otherwise she is just an unfortunate, unhappy, very young girl who is an innocent victim of Curley, Lennie, and an underprivileged background. Steinbeck was trying to make the girl seem like a real person, trying to make her sympathetic but not too sympathetic, cruel but not too cruel, immoral but not too immoral. He did not want her to steal the spotlight from Lennie. If we feel too sorry for Curley's wife when she is killed, then we won't feel sufficiently sorry for Lennie when he gets killed; we would feel that he got just what he deserved. That would spoil Steinbeck's great dramatic ending, which was what he was aiming for from the time he wrote the first sentence of his book. Of Mice and Men is George and Lennie's story.
