The House on Mango Street deals with personal identity and coming into your own, but also shows how that personal identity is sh
Anit [1.1K]

The first chapter talks about economic instability, the fourth chapter talks about sexism, and chapter 22 talks about the difficulties of living far from home.

<h3>How do these chapters establish this in the narrator's view?</h3>
  • In the first chapter, Esperanza, the narrator, has to move to a neighborhood with little infrastructure and a very small house.
  • This change must be made because her family is having financial problems.
  • Change makes everyone live with few resources, limitations, and problems.
  • The fourth chapter highlights how Esperanza's grandmother was forced to marry a man she didn't want.
  • This chapter highlights the lack of respect that women were subjected to in the Mexican community.
  • This lack of respect prevented women from fulfilling their desires.
  • Chapter 22 shows Esperanza's father receiving the news that his father, who lives in Mexico, has died.
  • Esperanza's family is living in the USA, which prevented her father from having contact with his father, in his last days of life.
  • This distance makes the sadness and grief even greater.

Although Esperanza is a teenager, the difficulties of living as a foreigner with few resources force her to have a very mature view of the society around her. At this point, we can see that Esperanza recognizes the problems of her family and her community in a very objective way and with thoughts away from childishness and innocence.

This underscores Esperanza's desire to seek a better future for herself and not live by what the community has established as right.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question. [Janie] was stretched on her back beneath the pear tree soaking in the alto chan
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Because for her this represented the idealization of love and what she seeks in a romance.

Explanation:

The text shown in the question above is an excerpt from the book "Their Eyes Were Watching God" where we meet the character Janie, who, while trying to dream of love and romance, finds herself trapped in unhappy marriages, where she is exploited and her position as a woman is devalued.

The excerpt shows what Janie's vision of marriage was like, before she was married. When she observes the reciprocity and intimacy between the bee and the flower, she sees this encounter as the idealization of love and romance. She is thrilled to watch the bee and the flower, because that's what she expects from a wedding and that's the kind of experience she wants to have.

Which statement makes the best counterclaim for this claim?
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

A) Financial aid for college students should be based on each  student's financial need.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, you need to know the definition of a counterclaim. A counterclaim is a claim the is opposite of yours in an argument.

Now, we need to look at choices. B cannot be correct because it is the same statement, only re-worded. C cannot be correct because it is a fact supporting the original claim.  D is also a fact supporting the original claim, so we can rule it out as well. This leaves us with A.

<em>Hope this helps! :-)</em>
