Read the excerpt from the interview with E.Y. (Yip) Harburg.

English
1 answer:
ratelena [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is a. Like Harburg, many expected that they could maintain their possessions through the Depression.

Explanation:

E. Y. -Yip- Harburg was an American songwriter, known by working with many popular artists as well as movies; he is the author of <em>Over the Rainbow</em>, from <em>The Wizard of Oz</em>.

The correct answer is letter A since the excerpt could be divided in two different ideas: the first one describes the American dream, compared with the Rock of Gibraltar due to the idea of its strength; there are some other elements that reinforce this idea, such as the marble outside of houses and the though of permanence. The second idea is the last sentence, where everything vanishes into nothing by exploding. This way, it is understood that many people expected to keep their possessions, but it did not happen.

Read the paragraph from Sora’s narrative essay.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

C.) Then my stubborn streak kicked in, and I decided that failure wasn’t an option.

Explanation:

The four sentences talk mainly of the cause and effect of Sora's narrative essay. This part of the essay would be placed in the middle of the essay for it contains the major turning point of her life and the plot of the story. The beginning of the essay may have been about her 'before' life, practicing the game but didn't quite succeed. Then comes the middle part of the narration where she decided to have inner reflection and made up her mind to change her approach. The ending of the essay may deal with the success story or the outcome of the reflection.

The passage provided the best support for placing this part in the middle of her essay. For this part contains the crucial part of the narrative where she changed her perception and approach and the eventual improvement. This claim is supported by the line - Then my stubborn streak kicked in, and I decided that failure wasn’t an option. This particular line provides the transition from the 'before' to 'after' of her narration.

rosijanka [135]
