Read the following excerpt from Leslie Marmon Silko’s story "The Man to Send Rain Clouds." They turned off the highway onto the
sandy pueblo road. Not long after they passed the store and post office they saw Father Paul's car coming toward them. When he recognized their faces he slowed his car and waved for them to stop. The young priest rolled down the car window. "Did you find old Teofilo?" he asked loudly. Leon stopped the truck. "Good morning, Father. We were just out to the sheep camp. Everything is O.K. now." "Thank God for that. Teofilo is a very old man. You really shouldn't allow him to stay at the sheep camp alone." "No, he won't do that any more now." What does this dialogue reveal about the priest’s standing within the community?
<span>The young priest is respected in the community despite his age as
evident in the passage. When he “waved for them to stop,” they stopped their
truck and greeted him calling him “Father.” When the priest suggested that they
should not leave Teofilo at the sheep camp alone, they replied to him
positively “No, he won’t do that anymore now.”</span>
Explanation: Malcolm isn't really an angel. She's just comparing him to one because he was nice. Metaphor is when you say someone is something when they aren't, without using the words "like" or "as".
When it comes to language, a word or word part can change in form and/or sound. Alternation is the same thing as allomorphs in morphology. Also called change.
