This question is about "Killers of the Flower Moon", by David Grann.

Answer:

1. Greed is the motivation for Ernest's actions.

2. Grann does this through the constant fear and dread that Mollie feels throughout the plot.

Explanation:

1. Ernest Burkhart is a very greedy man and this is his only motivation to continue his evil actions towards Mollie, her family and her people. Ernest Burkhart pretends to be an affectionate and loving husband so that Mollie does not distrust him and he can continue his plans to kill her and possess her fortune. The construction of the family, in this case, is only a facade, since Burkhart's plans go beyond that.

2. Grann uses highly descriptive language, which shows the constant dread and the psychological horror to which Mollie is subjected as her family members are being murdered. This emotional imbalance creates a lot of anxiety and creates a lively relationship in relation to the particular horror of crimes committed within a family and a united community.

1. Why does the narrator lie to his daughter, and how does he justify it? Do you think she will ask him the same
julsineya [31]
1. The narrator's nine-year-old daughter, knowing that her father writes war stories, asks him if he has ever killed anyone. The narrator says no but resolves to tell her the truth when she is grown (so yes she might ask the same question when she is older.)
2. because he wants his writing to be heard.
3. because it was his thing to kill anyone he saw, so his body reacted way before he has time to think whether or not he should kill or not. I probably would’ve done the same.
4. he focuses on the deaths because those thoughts aren’t easy to go away.

Aleks04 [339]

The main idea of the biography is that Dorothy deserves credit as a pioneer for her accomplishments at NASA. The sentence that confirms this is:

“…Vaughan was both a respected mathematician and NASA's first African-American manager.”

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Dorothy Vaughan's biography wants to show why she was a scientist and someone so important to American society.
  • In addition to having contributed a lot to the work of NASA, Vaughan was a pioneer in that institution.
  • That's because, NASA was an institution dominated by white people, who had more access to higher education and administrative positions.
  • However, Dorothy Vaughan became the first African-American manager that NASA had, in addition to being one of the first women to occupy this position, which makes her a pioneer.

As the central idea of a text is the main subject that the text intends to address, we can affirm that Dorothy Vaughan's pioneering spirit is the central idea of her biography.
