I say D. when using an ellipsis, it should first of all be used in the quote. in D it is not used in the quote, but is used before, which is incorrect as far as i know.

An ellipsis is used incorrectly in sentence D, "Abigail confessed that she..."loved the novel by Jane Austen more than the novel by Mark Twain."

An ellipsis (or three dots) is used to delete unimportant information. In sentence D the elipsis is not necessary because the speaker is not eliminating anything from the quote. In options A and C, the ellipsis is at the end, symbolizing that there is more to the quote than what is written. Also, in option B, the speaker is eliminating the first names of the author. While the sentence would be fine without the ellipsis, it is not incorrect.

What did Ron do on the telephone when talking to Mr. Dursley?
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

<em>Well, Most wizards are unfamiliar with this piece of technology, with Ron Weasley calling it a "fellytone," and believing he had to shout into the receiver to be heard. Consequently, the wizarding world prefers to use owls and the Floo Network for communication. </em><em>Good Luck!</em>

The following are all components of what?
My name is Ann [436]
They answer cannot be D, because the positioning of actors on the stage isn't one of Aristole's elements of drama. 
It cannot be C, because costumes aren't a part of stage directions.
It can't be B, because costumes aren't a part of dialogue.

Therefore, the answer must be (A) staging, because it's the only one that includes them all.

In a five-paragraph literary analysis essay, explain how each author develops the common theme. Compare and contrast how the aut
Snowcat [4.5K]

Hi. Your question asks for a literary analysis of the texts "Response to Executive Order 9066" and "Mericans." In this analysis, you must show your perception of the themes covered in the text, the techniques used by the authors and the way in which these themes are developed.

As an analysis is your personal perception of the text, I cannot do this analysis for you, but I can show you how to do it.

Firstly, it is important that you read the texts and identify the topics covered. In general, both texts address the lives of foreigners, mestizos and people of different ethnicities in America. However, these themes are approached in very different ways. In "Response to Executive Order 9066" the author discusses how racism, discrimination and the existence of stereotypes with foreigners or descendants affect people's lives.

In this story, we meet an Nipo-American girl who is unfairly accused by her friend, a white American girl. The entire charge is based on racism and xenophobia. The author of this text, however, approaches this issue with delicacy, showing that although xenphobia is painful and present in the country, there is hope that it will be overcome through love and tolerance among people.

"Mericans" also addresses the experience of foreigners in America. The author addresses the life of Mexicans, who when living in America, begin to abandon their native customs, which are suppressed by American customs, although these people are not considered Americans by society. In this book, the author addresses themes such as acculturation and cultural identification.

After reading these two texts, you should write down your perceptions of how these themes are worked throughout the text and organize a five-paragraph essay that should be done as follows:

  • 1st paragraph: This paragraph will be the introduction, where you will briefly present the two texts and present your position in relation to them, that is, you will briefly and objectively present your opinion about them. This will be your thesis statement.
  • 2nd Paragraph: Here you can present your insights into "Response to Executive Order 9066." In this paragraph you will show what you think of the theme, how this theme is worked, how the author reinforces this theme and the types of reflection it causes.
  • 3rd paragraph: Here you will present your perceptions of "Mericans" and show how the themes are covered, their perceptions and how the author works on these themes to provoke reflection in the readers.
  • 4th paragraph: In this paragraph, you will show how these two works are similar and different, even if they approach similar themes and can be easily related.
  • 5th paragraph: Here you will complete the text and show how these issues are presented in real life and how they can be solved, leaving society a much better place.
