What is the author’s purpose in using a mirror as a symbol??

English
1 answer:
Alik [6]3 years ago

Author's purpose for using a mirror varies. For example Laurie Halse Anderson, in her book Speak, uses the mirror as a symbol, to show Melinda's frustrations towards herself, such as appearance.
Seeing that Melinda was rap ed, she after avoids the mirror at all times. This can be interpreted as her inability to face her feelings. She also states "she can't see herself", and that shows us that her sense of identity has been altered by the rap e.
It's safe to say that a mirror can be a symbol of physical and spiritual reflection. Hope this helps.

Which sentence does not contain any errors in punctuation or capitalization?
Ymorist [56]
Well,

Let's start with these rules:
1. There should be a comma before a(n) direct/indirect quotation.
2. The ending punctuation should be before the close quotation.
3. The quotation should begin with a capital letter.

Option A does not have a comma, and does not capitalize the first letter, so it is eliminated.

Option C does not have a comma either.

Option B's exclamation mark is outside of the quotation marks, which excludes that.

The only option left is D, which is the correct answer.
