The story 'Mericans' depicts how Hispanic and Mexican immigration was having an impact on the fabric of American society and how it had created a new population which was unsure of its identity.
In some cases, the majority white population was racist towards the Mexicans while in other cases it was not.
However, even if the language and food of Mexicans was being celebrated by the majority white population, there were still several identity crises within the young.
The story gives the example of two Mexican kids who speak English and want to embrace the ways of America. However, their traditonal grandmother wants them to focus on the church, speaking Spanish and live a more 'Mexican' Life.
Such identity crises were experienced by many immigrants and still has a huge impact on first-generation immigrants from China, Pakistan, India etc
The correct answer is B.
Using indirect dialogue allows Twain to compress and shorten the conversation. By using fewer words (instead of including the exact dialogue), Twain can keep the scene short and move on to a more interesting part of the story.
If the dialogue were written out exactly as it was spoken, it would take a lot longer to read, since many animals are speaking to the donkey in this scene.
Answer:
The author writes with great scientific detail.
Explanation:
Simon Singh's "The Code Book" presents a detailed account of the history of cryptography through the tracing of its evolution and how secrecy came to be. The idea of a secret code for messages is what intrigues everyone and thus, this book delves into the how of such coded messages.
As seen in the given excerpt, the author Simon Singh states how scientific details such as <em>"p and q"</em> and the factoring of <em>"the public key, N"</em> are all processes to learn about Alice's private key. The inclusion of details such as <em>"check[ing] each prime number one at a time to see if it divides into N"</em> are all scientific approaches that will lead to the understanding of the private key.
Thus, the correct answer is the last or fourth option.
