Incomplete question. But I inferred you are referring to the article "A Guide to Exiles, Expatriates, and Internal Emigrés" by Mary McCarthy. The paragraph reads;

<em>"More than anybody (except lovers), exiles are dependent on mail. A Greek writer friend in Paris was the only person I knew to suffer real pain during the events of May, 1968, when the mail was cut off..".</em>

Answer:

<u>to show an exemption</u>

Explanation:

This exemption could read this way;

"With the exemption of lovers, exiles are dependent on mail more than anyone". What this means is that lovers use mails far more than exiles because of their emotional connection. But when you are not lovers, then exiles do more of mailing than you do.

As a reader, what is it like to read the perspective of a male character who expresses his feelings more than usual?
irinina [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

It would seem that some writing council has gotten together and decided that the ideal male character has chiseled arms, a broad chest, and is unafraid of anything. And, to add some diversity, you can have your skinny nerd dudes and theLook, I have two brothers and am a bit of a tomboy. I surf (or used to, before Lyme happened), meaning that I’ve spent a lot of time with guys, since there are more dude surfers than dudette surfers. So believe me when I tell you that many fictional male characters are not only stereotypical, but inaccurate. Not to mention annoying. Here are 8 points you may be getting wrong when  it comes to writing male characters: your dark-haired flirts with smoldering eyes.

Match each type of context clue with the correct sentence. The unknown word is underlined.
natali 33 [55]

Hi. You did not provide the phrases this question refers to. This makes it impossible for me to answer your question efficiently. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

Context clue is a literary device that allows the reader to understand the meaning of a difficult or unknown word through the context of the sentence where it is inserted or the context of the text itself.

This context clue will be called definition clue when the phrase presents the meaning of the word in its composition. Ex: Uma Haberdashery, which is a men's clothing store, opened next to my mother's restaurant.

The context clue will be called example clue when the phrase presents examples to explain the unknown word. Ex: My mother could not stand people who behave in an obsequious way, like my sister who was full of flattery in relation to her boss.

The context clue will be called synonym clue when the unknown word is explained subjunctively within the sentence. Ex: My mom was happy when the new haberdashery opened because she needed to buy a new suit for my dad.

The context clue will be called antonym clue when the meaning of an unknown word is determined by the presentation of another word or a clause that presents the opposite of that word. Ex: But my mom was sad that she couldn't buy women's clothes in this store, as it was a haberdashery.
