English

ratelena [41]3 years ago

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.

Answer:

to make a comparison to something all readers can understand

Explanation:

The user mentions the color red in order to make a comparison to something all readers can understand. Everyone has been taught colors from an early age. The reader is using this expected general understanding of the color red to compare to the logic and principles of geometry. Stating that what we are taught as a principle is what it is because we are taught that way and no other reason. The author uses the color red because in the same way as lines in geometry, we have been taught what red is and what it looks like.
