TIMED!!!!!! HURRY PLZ¡¡¡ Read the excerpt from "Dwaina Brooks.” Coupons helped cut the prices for sandwich wrapping, cookies, an

d mayonnaise. Dwaina's uncle got them discount lunch meats from the store where he used to work. Thursday night was bargain night at the bakery in nearby Lancaster. They drove away with six big loaves of day-old bread for $1.78. "Mama, do you think anyone at the shelter will really eat day-old bread?" Dwaina asked. "We eat it," Gail replied. "If it don't kill us, it won't kill them." The baker gave them twenty free boxes, too, when he heard how they would be used. Dwaina's aunts and uncles brought over huge sacks of chips and big bottles of salad dressing. What idea is emphasized through repetition?
Dwaina was overwhelmed and unsure what to do with the additional food.

Many people in the community were nervous about helping Dwaina.

Dwaina wanted to make the meals without help from the community.

Many people in the community contributed to Dwaina’s cause in their own way.

Answer:

Many people in the community contributed to Dwaina’s cause in their own way.

Explanation:

Dwaina Brooks had formed a group of volunteers comprising of friends and family members in order to help feed the homeless and poor people in her home Dallas in Texas. She first started this charity work when she was in the fourth grade, helping however she can.

From the excerpt from "Dwaina Brooks", the passage shows just how she had managed to get things for everyone, however much she can. The repetition also is for emphasizing the efforts of the people in the community in helping her. They contributed to her cause in their own way, some providing leftover bread. One "<em>baker gave them twenty free boxes, (and her relatives) brought packets of chips and big bottles of salad dressings</em>".

HEEEEEELP ASAP!!!! 20POINTS FOR THE ANSWER
notsponge [240]

Answer:In this passage, Stowe is discussing the passage of time. His point -- and the lesson he is trying to teach -- meshes nicely with the technique he uses to get this point across.

Stowe makes the point that when looking back on bad times ("looking back to seasons which in review appear to us as those of deprivation and trial") we often remember that there were moments of happiness ("diversions and alleviations") that prevent us from being totally unhappy.

Stowe is also trying to indicate that time passes almost without our being aware of it. While it is true time passes "a day at a time," days accumulate without our being aware of it. And so, the year will end when it feels it has barely begun. The time jump Stowe uses is a perfect way to illustrate this point.

Although Tom has to live one day at a time, and even though he is not entirely happy, before he knows it "two years were gone." Thus, this time jump allows Stowe to do two things.

First, this time jump has a practical application. This drastic time jump of two years allows Stowe to fast forward quickly in time without describing all the little and unimportant events that happened over the course of two years. (It is enough to know that Tom lived through times of deprivation but had moments of happiness.) Second, this time jump allows Stowe to illustrate the theme of the passage of time that he is discussing in this excerpt.
