The answer is: The reader gets a sense of the author’s feelings about the dogs that were a major part of Kiowa culture.

In the excerpt from "The Way to Rainy Mountain," the author Scott Momaday uses the first-person point of view to make readers understand and be aware of the narrator's feelings and motives. In other words, the first-person point of view makes the reader go inside the character's mind. As a result, they are able to learn the narrator's thoughts and see the events of the story through his or her eyes.

The rest of the alternatives are incorrect because the passage does not provide information about the role of dogs in the Kiowa culture.

Identify the concept of "unchangeable truth"
s344n2d4d5 [400]
"Unchangeable truth" is something that must be accepted; it must be faced in order to be conquered. Whether it is a prejudice someone holds against you, or a mistake you made in the past, you must be willing to address it in order to change it. The truth cannot be denied, but it can be changed. Hope this helps!

In the poem marriage is a private affair, why does nnaemekas father at first resist meeting his grandchildren
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

He refused to meet his grandchildren for he is of the opinion that his son, Nnaemeka had gone against his will in marrying a girl from another tribe.

Explanation:

Chinua Achebe's short story "Marriage Is A Private Affair" tells the story of the protagonist Nnaemeka's conflict with his father after he decided to refuse his father's choice of his wife and instead married a woman from another tribe.

His father had first suggested a woman from the same tribe to be his wife but he refused, insisting that he didn't love her and he's already engaged to another girl from the Nene tribe. Even after years of marriage couldn't bring the father to forgive his son. But the letter sent by Nene to him at the end of the story, telling him of how the children wanted to meet their grandfather, was enough to stop his hard heart from being arrogant as usual. He did not want to deny the children anymore, questioning in his mind "<em>How could he shut his door against them?</em>". Thus, the refusal of Nnaemeka's father to meet the children was his initial anger and resentment of his son's refusal to marry a girl of his choosing and instead marrying someone from another tribe.
