Chinua Achebe was a Nigerian novelist. He had a title of chieftain of Igbo tribe and wrote novels about its customs. That was portrayed as sophisticated, passed down through generations.
Westerners may mistaken them as ‘primitive and savage’. But Achebe showed Igbo people's rich cultural background through his narrations. Igbo proverbs, ‘the art of conversation", were frequently quoted in his novels.
The non-violent nature of Igbo was demonstrated by events like the peaceful agreement with the Mbaino tribe during a murder in Igbo by a Mbaino man.
D. "Neither my friends nor my family cares about me," said Finlay.
In this sentence there are two subjects, "friends" and "family". Since the conjunction "neither...nor" is used, the subject-verb agreement gets a little tricky. If both subjects were singular, as in he or she, the verb must agree with a singular subject. This is because it is either one or the other not both. In this sentence, one subject is plural, friends, and one subject is singular, family. Family is considered a collective noun, so even though there are many people in the family, there is only one family. Since family is closest to the verb and it is singular, "to care" must be in the singular form. Option B and C are wrong because the verbs "were" and "are" are plural verbs.
Answer:
Explanation:Therefore, option D all of the above is the correct answer.
Answer:
C. Anaphora
Explanation:
An analogy is a comparison of things using figurative language/imagery. So Choice A is incorrect.
Logos is a persuasive technique. It appeals to people's <em>logic. </em>The phrase "He has" doesn't appeal to logic. So Choice B is incorrect.
Parallelism means a close connection between two things/two things that mirror each other. "He has" does not parallel anything. So Choice D is incorrect.
A Red Herring is a misleading or false statement meant to negate or confuse the audience. This doesn't make sense in terms of "He has," so Choice E is incorrect.
By process of elimination, we're left with C. Anaphora. An anaphora is the repetion of a word or phrase at the start of several sentences. This makes sense and is the most logical answer.
