<u> It uses figurative language. 1</u>

<u> It expresses the girl's longing. 2</u>

“Hills Like White Elephants,” by Ernest Hemingway is a story about a young couple and the issue of whether doing an abortion or not. Even though the author never explicitly says that abortion is the polemic issue, he gives the reader enough information so they can infer it and be involved in the story.

This excerpt is significant because it uses symbolism (a figurative language) through the description of the setting, and it expresses the girl's logging.

The fields of grain and trees and The Ebro River represent fertility and fruitfulness: the unborn child she carries in her womb. And the “shadow of a cloud” symbolizes the polemic issue, the abortion of the fetus. And as she sees all the panorama, she realizes her wish for having the baby: <em>"And we could have all this," she said. "And we could have everything and every day we make it more impossible."</em>

mojhsa [17]
The first one is a choice. Dickens always educates or entertains with his descriptions.

The last one and the second one are much the same thing.

Answer: leave out the 3rd one. Accept all the rest.

What is the purpose of a thesis statement?
Lady_Fox [76]

The purpose of the thesis statement is to inform the reader what the essay/paragraph is going to be about.

<u>A thesis statement needs to be clear and specific in order to fulfill its purpose, which is to present the reader what the essay/paragraph will be discussing</u>. In other words, the thesis statement addresses the topic of a piece of writing. For that reason, the information that comes after the thesis statement must be closely related to it. A thesis statement is made up of one or two sentences.

HELP ASAP 50 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Elena L [17]

Answer:

2. Extrovert

3. Avert

4. Traverse

Explanation:

All you have to do is take the prefixes, mix them with the roots, and search what the words mean. For example, I found the answer to number three because the prefix "a-" means away from (as the word box tells you) and then I put "a-" with both "vert" and "verse". I knew that "avert" was correct because avert means to turn away. But you could simply put "a-" with "vert" and "verse" and search what the words meant.

I hope my explanation wasn't too confusing :)
