When a motif gains larger significance throughout a text, it becomes a theme, something larger that you talk about in your work. But since theme is not a listed option, I would say the correct answer is 5) a thesis.

The answer is 5: a thesis

 The <em>repetition of a specific theme dominanting</em> of things that have a significance in a literary work is what this literay device, motif, is about. It helps to develop the central theme.  And, being a <em>recorring </em>element, it can be used as a <em>reminder of certain ideas</em> for the readers; <em>it's like the claim or main argument about a topic.</em>

Write one paragraph to compare and contrast how the two texts by Sonia Nazario present similar ideas but in different genres. In
omeli [17]

Answer:

Both the editorial and the biography support the author’s purpose of drawing attention to the plight of refugees. The two pieces work to create emotions in the reader and empathy for Enrique and other young migrants from Central America. However, the author uses different approaches in each text. The editorial includes words with strong connotations to persuade readers. In this text, the author works to convince readers the United States should change its refugee policy. On the other hand, the biography relies on narrative techniques and figurative language. The author uses setting, characterization, and personification to educate readers on the topic.

What is the symbolism in the book, "Persepolis"?
worty [1.4K]

"The gold key is a pretty horrific symbol of the lengths the government will go to in order to brainwash children into enlisting in the military. They tell them that this key will get them into heaven if they die at war. This harkens back to ancient religious wars, like the Crusades, where dying a martyr was the best possible thing a boy could do. Although, in reality, all it means is that they died as pawns of the government.

This key is an especially repulsive symbol because it holds absolutely no intrinsic value—it's "a plastic key painted gold" (13.34). The Iranian military couldn't even give kids something of value to lure them into war, something they might be able to melt down for money. Of course, what value does money have to a martyr? You can't spend it when you're in the theoretical halls of heaven, with more virgins for the taking than you know what to do with."
