Sidana [21]

Answer:

The option which best explains how Nye's text structure helps establish her voice in the excerpt is:

A. Nye relates a story about something she heard to emphasize the point she wants to make about heritage.

Explanation:

In "Speaking Arabic," Naomi Shihab Nye discusses heritage. In the particular excerpt we are analyzing here, she relates something she heard a man say once about wanting to have a heritage. Her purpose in relating his words is to address people's need to have a fixed, specific identity. Being of mixed ethnicities, Nye wants to show that diversity is also an identity, a heritage. That is why she also mentions the different food stores and the American trees. The man is surrounded by heritage but is blinded to it by his need to define and specify it.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Lord Capulet compromises that if Paris manages to win Juliet's love, then he will let them marry.

Explanation:

Paris has shown great interest in Juliet and has been seeking the approval of her father, Lord Capulet repeatedly. What happens is that Juliet is still too young and her father does not want her to get married yet, since she is still his little girl.

In turn, Lord Capulet also does not want to reject the offer of Paris since he is aware that he would be the best suitor of his daughter and is even related to the prince of Verona.

In response to Paris's request, Lord Capulet finally agrees that Paris go to the ball and try to conquer Juliet. If he wins her love, then he will give them his blessing for the two of them to marry.

Identify the oxymoron.
Lorico [155]

Answer:

I believe the answer is silent speakers scream.

Explanation:

An oxymoron is a sentence that sort of contradicts itself. The words "silent" and "scream" mean the complete opposite thing, yet they are used in the same sentence to express something. I really hope this helps!! :)
