Which describes the most important structural similarity of “back to my own country; an essay” and “shooting an elephant”?

English
1 answer:
Black_prince [1.1K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Both of these essays are based on personal commentary and have a straight forward writing style.

Explanation:

Shooting An Elephant is an excellent heart-wrenching narration written by George Orwell. While Back To My Own Country is a thought-provoking essay written by Andrea Levy. These pieces of literature elaborate on a similar theme as well. They talk about social colonial evils.  

George emphasizes on heinous animal cruelty and exemplifies elephants as generous beings. He also sheds light on British imperialism.  

Andrea Levy talks about social injustice committed against the black people. She also describes the general air of Britain during the 1500s - 1800s. According to her, black people contributed a lot to Modern Britain.

1. How does the idea of Tan’s reconciliation with her mother’s informal English develop over the course of chunk 1?
zvonat [6]

Answer :

In the story "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan, Amy struggles with the idea of code-switching which loosely means using different forms and dialects of English language in different circumstances.

During her growing up years, Amy struggled with the concept of code switching. She feels that she is in two language zones - one is the simple, unclear and broken language of her mother and the other is the more sophisticated use of the language that she learns at school. At times, she is embarrassed of her mother's spoken English, when her friends cannot understand what she wants to convey to them. Amy does not realize that her mother is really proficient in reading the language as she could read many books in English. Her mother only lacks in speaking proficiency as English is not her native language.

Slowly, Amy starts realizing the merits of growing up in an immigrant family and starts appreciating the cultures and traditions of her two worlds.

Why have people gathered at this place in the canterbury tales?
Igoryamba

The Tabard Inn is the starting point for the pilgrims' journey to Canterbury. ... There is at least one more reason for having the pilgrims gather in the Tabard Inn, though: an inn could easily be a gathering place for people from diverse walks of life, accommodating commoners and more elite members of society.
