Answer :
In "My Father's Song" by Simon Ortiz, the mice serve as a symbol for the next generation of children. The option "They represent the next generation of children and suggest the need for protection." is the correct option.
The answer is clear from the following lines of the poem :
"Very gently, he scooped tiny pink animals
into the palm of his hand
and told me to touch them.
We took them to the edge
of the field and put them in the shade
of a sand moist clod."
Well uh 1st off.
You gotta choose between 1 or 2 then write an essay.
2nd off
If you are going through an online school using anyone elses words even if they write it for you or you get them off say a different site you might get in trouble (possible kicked out cause that happened to me even though i wrote the thing myself XD)
so uh yeah.. just saying, not tryna be rude.
The correct answer is D. Using someone else’s ideas and putting them into your own words.
I hope this helps! Have a terrific night.
