During the trip, the grandmother showed her true perception of African Americans when she called the child at the shack a pickaninny and said they (blacks) don't have things that white people do. The grandmother lied about the house she knew as a child. She felt that she had to lie in order to get her way. The grandmother told Bailey to make a turn to a house which she remembered was the wrong house but she did not admit she was wrong. She tells the story about how her watermelon is eaten up when it is left on her porch. She also tells the Misfit that he does not have common blood as if her blood was better than common. Because the Misfit is white, he has to be a good person in the grandmother's opinion.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The author couldn't follow his dreams because of the job market failure. He was an English major and wanted to be a writer but couldn't get the job. He tried for several months to get a job with no luck until he heard about an opening in a newspaper business. Nobody wanted the job so he took it. He didn't believe he could be a reporter because he never thought about it before. He wanted to write, not ask questions.

The failure of the job market shaped a motivator externally in the short story. If the job market was thriving, he would have probably found a writing job somewhere else instead of the reporter job he took. He would have never found his true passion for reporting with the failure.

Write an descriptive writing about a beach using sensory details. Try to use Figurative devices as well. (e.g simile metaphors)​
3241004551 [841]

Answer: The sea was like a rippling blanket of brochure-blue. Squabbling seagulls flew overhead, harassing the beachgoers in their endless hunger. Gannets were dive-bombing the stretched surface of the sea far out from shore. The horizon was edged with a silver tint and a cormorant was flying into that place where sun and water meet. His wings were a blur of motion and he soon faded from sight. The opera of the sea washed over me and the wave-music was welcome.

What conflict, or problem, does Tom Sawyer face in the story?
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The correct answer is <u>A</u>: He has to whitewash a fence and does not want to.

Explanation:

One morning, Aunt Polly asks Tom to whitewash a fence. Tom does not want to do it, and he tries to convince Jim to do it instead of him when Aunt Polly arrives and says Tom has to do it by himself. However, Tom manages to convince another boy, Ben Rogers, to do it instead of him. Ben accepts and gives Tom an apple in exchange because Tom convinced him that whitewashing a fence is a task only for privileged boys.

By the end of the day, the fence is whitewashed and Tom gets a lot of different things from each boy who tried to whitewash a fence.
