Common Points:

  • In “The Black Ball” by Ralph Ellison is a story that focuses mainly on racial discrimination and prejudice.
  • In “Why, You Reckon?” by Langston Hughes is also focused on the struggle of the African Americans in American society.

Differences:

  • In “The Black Ball” by Ralph Ellison uses metaphors and allegories and characterization to show how racism and discrimination affect people in their way of being and thinking. The story happens in a Hotel, John works at it and has a conflict with the Hotel Manager and The Union worker.
  • In “Why, You Reckon?” by Langston Hughes uses slang words that were used in the 1930s and also uses a lot of suffixes like “ing” and “in”. He also uses a lot of symbolism even though he speaks about real places like Harlem and the darkness of the furnace. The story takes place in Harlem New York a place of extreme poverty in the 1930s.

<em>The main difference between both stories is that Hughes wants to show the pursuit of happiness despite adversities. In the Black Ball, Ellison tries to show that there is no differences between people.</em>

Hello. You didn't attach the poem or even say the title of the poem, which makes it impossible for me to answer your question accurately, but I will help you as much as I can by showing you how to find your answer.

The simile makes comparisons between elements that have different contexts, but that has a characteristic between both that can be related creating a new meaning and concept between one of these elements. In other words, the simile aims to show a concept shared between two different elements. This type of comparison, within a poem, can create a message pattern, where the entire poem is aimed at maintaining the tone that the simile projected during the comparison.

An example of this can be seen in the phrase "My heart fell in life like a star wounded by a hunter's arrow," where the hunter's heart and arrow are different elements, but promote the feeling of pain and sadness when compared.

Stels [109]

Answer:

Encourage women to join the armed forces

Explanation:

WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service) was a branch of the U.S. Navy created by Congress during World War II, on July 30, 1942. Due to the severity of the war, women, despite the previous social resistance, got the right to join the armed forces. Before WAVES, they could only serve as nurses in the navy. Women in WAVES (over 100,000) served in support positions - they held clerical positions, served as aviation instructors for male pilots-in-training, engineers, scientists, intelligence agents. Many of them were college-educated, especially scientists and engineers, who were tasked with complex operations such as determination of bomb trajectories.
