in the book a long walk to water, from what tribe are the additional members that join Salva’s group?
kari74 [83]

<u>Answer:</u>

In the book "A long walk to water", the additional members that joined Salva’s group are from Jurchol Tribe.

<u>Explanation:</u>

'A Long Walk to Water' is story which is partially based on true story of Salva Dut. He was a Somalian from the Dinka tribe who wanted to escape the war that had destroyed his land. So, he trekked across his country and entered Ethiopia. Though they had no idea where they were going, had no food to eat but they kept moving. Salva was joined by a neighbouring tribe, Jurchol.

Salva led a group which had around 1,500 “lost boys”. They walked miles for more than 18 months through desert and three countries. Then they reached “Kakuma refugee camp” in North Kenya. Only 1,200 boys could reach Kenya. From here they got a sponsorship to go to U.S. in 1996.

 does anyone know the figurative language being used in women by alice walker. and what quote it is.
swat32

Answer:

Implied metaphor.

<em>"How they battered down </em>

<em>Doors </em>

<em>And ironed </em>

<em>Starched white </em>

<em>Shirts </em>

<em>How they led </em>

<em>Armies </em>

<em>Headragged generals </em>

<em>Across mined </em>

<em>Fields </em>

<em>Bo oby-trapped </em>

<em>Ditches"</em>

Explanation:

Alice Walker's poem "Women" is a poem about women in general and how they fight for their children's right to education. The poem is written in short, at times, monosyllable lines, where the speaker talks of mothers and their hard work to get an education for their children.

Figurative languages are the elements of writing that writers employ in their writing to give more 'color' and 'body' to their work. And in this poem, Alice Walker uses an implied metaphor. This element can be seen in the lines

<em>How they battered down </em>

<em>Doors </em>

<em>And ironed </em>

<em>Starched white </em>

<em>Shirts </em>

<em>How they led </em>

<em>Armies </em>

<em>Headragged generals </em>

<em>Across mined </em>

<em>Fields </em>

<em>Bo oby-trapped </em>

<em>Ditches</em>

Here, the speaker makes a comparison between the women/ mothers and several personalities like army generals, or army commanders, and other daily workers. These efforts by the mothers are for their children to <em>"discover books, desks, a place"</em> to get an education which they themselves weren't able to access.

Thus, the figurative language used in this poem is an implied metaphor.

Could someone help write a theme statement for "Lamb of the Slaughter" around the motif of manipulation?
solong [7]

‘‘Lamb to the Slaughter’’ tells of at least one betrayal: Patrick Maloney’s unexplained decision to leave his pregnant wife. This violation of the marriage-vow is obviously not the only betrayal in the story, however. Mary’s killing of her husband is perhaps the ultimate betrayal. Her elaborately planned alibi and convincing lies to the detectives also constitute betrayal.

Put this in your own words.
