The subject of both passages is:

The circumstances under which Trujillo died.

Passage one and two state that Trujillo was assassinated by a group of plotters. In the first passage, the facts are stated and one of the army officers who killed him said that murdering him was the only way out. On the other hand, in the second passage, the child of one of the people who assassinated Trujillo states that the assassination was seen as a way to bring justice.

<em>Passage one never discusses how Trujillo's death affected individuals, it does not say anything about bringing justice back to the people. Neither one of the passages mentions how Trujillo improved the Dominican Republic or how life was under the dictatorship. </em>

The correct answer is alternative one.

Both passages by Mark Memmott and Julia Alvarez reveal the situation and condition under which Dominican dictator Rafael Trujillo passed away, and they also justify it. In the first excerpt, the author quotes an army officer who murdered him. In the second text, Alvarez admits her father was involved in Trujillo's assassination.

LITERARY ANALYSIS: Heart of Darkness is narrated from the perspective of a European exploring Africa. The passage conveys his pe
GuDViN [60]

The author characterizes the narrator as a man who was strongly shaken by everything he witnessed in Africa.

This can be seen because:

  • The book's narrator, Marlow, is very excited to participate in the journey to colonize Africa.
  • This excitement is created by a strong influence of the setting where he finds himself.
  • This scenario is a prosperous Europe, due to strong colonization.
  • However, the narrator's excitement ends when he arrives in Africa.
  • The setting in Africa is very different from the setting in Europe.
  • In Africa, the narrator interacts with a scenario of poverty, exploitation, violence, devaluation, and decadence, all created by European colonizers.
  • The narrator is very shaken by this scenario and shows himself to be a physically and mentally ill man. He becomes weak, distraught, and unable to act normally.

This change in narrator characterization is very significant for "Heart of Darkness." This is because the author wanted to present an anti-colonial story, as he wanted to show that all people involved in colonialism and imperialism were negatively affected.
