The answer is: A. “But you wasn’t satisfied wid me de way Ah was. Naw! Mah own mind had tuh be squeezed and crowded out tuh make room for yours in me.”

In this part of the story Janie is telling Joe about a way that men keep women down, by silencing them and she recognizes that Joe’s attempts to silent her are invasion of her thoughts, this is showing her look for identity in the story.

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

At the end of World War II the Allies Powers sent a message to the Japanese demanding surrender. The Japanese responded with the word mokusatsu, which translates as either "to ignore" or "to withhold comment". The Japanese meant that they wished to withhold comment, to discuss and then decide. The Allies translated mokusatsu as the Japanese deciding to ignore the demand for surrender. The Allies therefore ended the war by dropping the bomb and transforming the world we live in forever.

The effect that words can have is incredible: to inform, persuade, hurt or ease pain, end war or start one, kill thousands or even millions of people. They can get your point across, or destroy any hope of your ideas ever being understood. A major element of advertising is the words, which ones and in what order. The following is a discussion of words and how to use them to the greatest effect in advertising.

At the end of her speech Congresswoman Jordan uses a quotation by Republican President Abraham Lincoln. What strategy lies behin
Svetradugi [14.3K]

What strategy lies behind the use of this quotation? B. Using a quotation by this respected president would link Jordan's words to the much revered President Lincoln's words in the minds of the listeners, giving her credibility. The quotation gives her speech validity.

(...) Well I am going to close my speech by quoting a Republican President and I ask you that as you listen to these words of Abraham Lincoln, relate them to the concept of a national community in which every last one of us participates:  

"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master." This -- This -- "This expresses my idea of Democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no Democracy."

<em>Barbara Jordan was a politician (feminist) and leader of the black civil rights movement in the United States.</em>

ANIMAL ADOLESCENCE IS FILLED WITH TEEN DRAMA AND PEER PRESSURE - COMMONLIT
olganol [36]

Answer:

The statement which expresses the central idea of the passage is:

B. Animals and humans all go through a necessary phase of adolescence.

Explanation:

By Duncan Strauss, the article "Animal Adolescence is Filled with Teen Drama and Peer Pressure" discusses the similarity human teenagers and animal teenagers have.

<u>Throughout the article, the author mentions different kinds of animals - elephants, dolphins, even birds and wolves - and explains how they all have some things in common among themselves and with humans</u>: during their adolescence period, all of them show risky and reckless behaviors; they all enjoy socializing with other adolescents; and their moods and preferences are frustrating to the older members of their packs or families, etc.

<u>This phase is necessary for humans as well as animals. Although tragic consequences may ensue - an animal can get killed, for example -, it is during adolescence that they all learn and develop skills that will keep them safer as adults.</u>

The part in the fable that was in bold is called denouement. This the last part of the plot in which the story is drawn together. This the part where things get resolved and things are explained. It is usually the resolution of the story. So the correct answer is denouement. I hope this answer helped you
