Oh and why did you put a lot of points?
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
2. (RL.2.4) Read the excerpt from the passage from " “By Any Other Name” by Santha Ramu Rau
“‘Come along,’ she said, frowning slightly. ‘What’s your name, dear?’‘I don’t know.’ I said flatly.”
How does the Rau’s word choice impact the meaning of the passage?
a.It reveals the language barrier that exists between the British and Indian people.
b.It conveys the teacher’s disinterest in her Indian students.
c.It highlights the loss of identity felt by the Indian people.
d.It affirms that the British people are superior to the Indian people
Answer:
c.It highlights the loss of identity felt by the Indian people.
Explanation:
“By Any Other Name" portrays the loss of the essence of indigenous individuals when forced to live in British "reformatorios", where they were forced to use Christian names and assume British customs seen as correct and civilized. In the excerpt shown in the question above, we see that one of the "teachers" of the reformatorio asks an indigenous girl what her name is. The girl was taught not to use her indigenous name anymore, what makes her confused about what name she has and who she really is.
The author's choice of words for this passage highlights the loss of identity felt by the indigenous people.
I don't see any underlined words in the sentence. However, I'll just post my answer based on my understanding.
Where there is water ⇒ subordinate clause
There are mosquitoes ⇒ independent clause
Independent clause is a complete sentence. It has a subject, a verb, and expresses a complete thought.
Subordinate clause is a dependent clause that starts with a conjunction. It also has a subject and a verb but it is dependent on the main clause.
