At the beginning of this excerpt, we see the narrator (Theodore Dreiser) reflecting on the nature of his brother. The excerpt then switches to the narrative storytelling of an event that clarifies and supports this reflection. Because this is a work of nonfiction and Dreiser is recounting real people and their experiences, he makes it known that it’s almost impossible to use words to capture the essence of what his brother was truly like. He proceeds to narrate an incident that helps the readers get a better understanding of his brother and his nature. Dreiser describes the incident as though he is telling a fictional story. He provides descriptive details about the atmosphere and the character (his brother) in the scene, just like a scene from a piece of fiction. He draws on his factual knowledge of his brother’s traits and uses this brief, real-life incident to help readers understand his brother and how he was generous, sympathetic, and a tad bit mischievous. He uses descriptive language to add depth to the incident and maintain readers’ attention.
Hello! :)
Connotative words are words that arouse feelings inside the reader, rather than literal, dictionary definitions.
Home: having a safe shelter—a place to live and grow up or could mean somewhere you feel safe like maybe in your mother’s arms when she holds you.
Dwelling: a safe area for you and might be a mound type of thing and protects from outside harsh environments.
House: a safe shelter; a place to live and reside. A place where you are sure it’ll guard you and keep you safe. Not worrying because it’s the safety of your own home we’re talking about!
Residence: residing or staying somewhere—could be permanently or nomadic-styled. An area where you might grow up but reside in a comfortable area.

The correct answer here would be <u>Beware the pursuit of luxury as it will surely barricade the path that leads to self-awareness.</u>
The author clearly states his claim in the beginning of this excerpt:"<em>Most of the luxuries, and many of the so-called comforts of life, are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind</em>."
What he means by this is that we do not need as much we think we do and, in order to make progress as mankind, we should care less about luxury and rely more on reason and judgment.
