How is the family’s flight from the Dominican Republic foreshadowed in the poem?

English
1 answer:
kupik [55]3 years ago

Answer:

A. The girls are dressed in their “best party dresses” to go to the beach.

Explanation:

Ju lia Alvarez's poem <em>Exile</em><em> </em>recounts the time her parents had got them ready to leave the Dominican Republic and move to America. The secret journey, the truth behind the lie, and the realization that she will no longer see her home for another decade are all revealed in the poem which reveals the poet's real thoughts about their move.

Starting the first line with <em>"The night we fled the country, Papi"</em>, Alvarez comes directly to the issue. His parents had planned on moving secretly, talking in hushed voices, and telling the children that they are going to the beach. Their flight away from the country is foreshadowed in the way the girls were told to wear their <em>"best party dresses"</em> to go to the beach.  

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Which sentence has correct capitalization? A. Tom Hanks is a famous Actor who has appeared in such films as Philadelphia, Forres
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A isn't correct since it capitalized the word Actor. Actor isn't a word that needs to be capitalized unless it's at the beginning of a sentence.

B isn't correct since Tom Hanks name isn't capitalized.

D isn't right since Philadelphia, a movie and city, wasn't capitalized.

C is the only sentence that had all the movie names and Tom Hanks name capitalized without any other unnecessary capitalizations.
