That day a quarter of a century later when I visited him on the plantation—he was standing against the sky, smiling toothlessly,

his hair whitened, his body bent, his eyes glazed with dim recollection, his fearsome aspect of twenty-five years ago gone forever from him—I was overwhelmed to realize that he could never understand me or the scalding experiences that had swept me beyond his life and into an area of living that he could never know. What does the excerpt most clearly demonstrate about Wright's attitude toward his father?

Answer:

Wright was apparently hurt and unhappy when reflecting on his father's  past dealings with him.

Explanation:

The excerpt portrayed Wright's father as a person who did not truly treat him lovingly during his younger days. This can be found in the sentence where he talked about his 'fearsome aspect of twenty five years ago'. Old age apparently made his father vulnerable according to his descriptions such as his 'bent body', and him 'smiling toothlessly'. This was not the way his father was during his younger days.

Wright also talked about some scalding experiences which swept him beyond his life. These scalding experiences may have been caused by his father.

Help me with this as soon as possible plz and thank you
zhuklara [117]

The correct answer is B) The counterclaim is supported by strong evidence.

Even if the claim is valid (which excludes option A), it does not offer other evidence than the author's perception that crowds disturb the city and looks for the audience to agree on that. This lack of strong evidence supporting the author's claim also invalidates option C.

On the other hand, there is a counterclaim (excluding option D) that actually offers strong evidence supporting it. The fact that the festival attracts lots of tourists and generates revenue for the city, including the local businesses that support the festival, is strong evidence that supports the claim that the festival should be maintained.

So the only correct answer is option B.

What contributes to someone becoming a bully? What can help stop someone from bullying?
rosijanka [135]
Harassment, exploiting people, any form of physical contact (hitting, shoving, kicking, etc.), mean text, threats and talking about people behind their back is a contribution to bullying. To stop someone from bullying, the victim can tell an adult. Standing up for yourself is common, but usually the victim gets in trouble as well.
