NeX [460]

Answer: The image of the penny in line 14 is appropriate because the narrator refers to herself as a new-minted penny, meaning that she is young and vigorous, and is willing to offer her help to the listener; the old lady.

Explanation: The poem speaks to an old lady, describing everything about her with tenderness. She refers to the elderly woman as “beautiful and faded", and compares her with old lovely things. In line 14, the narrator refers to herself as a new-minted penny, implying that the fact that she is young and vigorous, does not make her any better than the old lady, just like a penny does not have a big value. However, she offers her help and enthusiastic "sparkle" in whatever she needs.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer: The author is emphasizing the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them

Explanation:

Here's the remainder of the question:

What is the purpose of the author’s description of the beauty of the combs?

a The author is emphasizing the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them.

b. This description is included as a part of the setting of the story.

c. The author is contrasting Della’spoverty with her extravagant tastes.

d. The author wants the reader to understand Jim’s disappointment in Della..

From the excerpt, we can deduce that Della had always worshipped and craves for the beautiful combs, which were pure tortoise shell, and had jewelled rims which she could use for her hair.

We are further told that even though the conbs were expensive, and that she had craved and yearned for them, she has them now but that the tresses that would have adorned the coveted adornments were gone.

This illustrates the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them.
