Prior to Dee leaving home, the everyday objects in her household were just that- everyday objects. She took no special notice of any of them. However, once she returns home, all of these objects represent great culture significance to her. She is incredibly enthused about how great the wooden benches and old quilts are because she thinks it is in-style to be in touch with her own culture.

Answer:

The name Dee represents the ancestral heritage to the narrator.

The narrator is the mother of the two daughters in the story "Everyday Use" written by Alice Walker. The two sisters Maggie and Dee are very distinct from each other. The younger one was Dee whose name was symbolic of the hardships and struggles which their ancestors had gone through. On the other hand, for Dee, her culture was a means to preserve it and keep it for reference in the future.

xeze [42]

Answer: "Then we ate pizza and played video games with my family"

Explanation:

"Then I invited Hailey to spend the night at my house." wouldn't make sense due to the previous sentence stating that they already discussed unpacking Hailey's sleeping bag.

"Finally, I helped Hailey pack up her belongings in the morning." also wouldn'y make sense because "Finally" doesn't work in the middle of a sentence. Same thing with "Finally, Hailey’s mother agreed to let Hailey sleep over."

If you say to your significant other, "I see you didn't put gas in my car after borrowing it", the relationship level of meaning
Sati [7]

Answer:

- You don't respect me .

- You are too lazy to refill the gas tank.

Explanation:

'Relationship level of meaning' is associated with the connotative meaning which is intended to be displayed by the speaker which is contrary to the content level meaning that reflects the literal or explicit meaning of the message. 'Relationship level' of meaning reflects the type of relationship shared by two people.

According to the description given, the relationship level of meaning would involve 'you don't respect me' and 'You are too lazy to refill the gas tank' which implies that the speaker shows his/her authority(implied by 'you don't respect me') and at the same time, the remarks('you are too lazy..') reflect that he well knows the person he/she is communicating with. This implies that the two share a positive bond.
