1 answer:
Fudgin [204]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Tan uses a nonstandard version of english with her husband because it is the language she spoke as a child and it expresses intimacy.

Explanation:

Growing up in a multilingual household or speaking English as a second language can lead to interesting speech patterns. Even when we are adults and realize that certain phrases or idioms are not grammatically correct, we often use them anyway because of the fond memories they bring or because of the contexts or people we associate them with.

I need someone to help!!!! Write a short story using 5 of the following words
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mary was fleeing from the robber. She was running through the ally evading the man who was trying to exploit her. Mary kept looking over her sholder trying to gauge when he would catch her. Suddenly the ally opened onto the street. She saw a cop who seemed engrossed in his donut. She ran to his car and pounded on his window. He oppened his door and steped out. He saw the man run out of the ally. The man stoped and took in the scene. He knew that if he kept running it was a given that the cop would capture him. The man turned and ran back into the ally. Mary was safe.

Which statement BEST expresses the theme of this poem?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

B) Nature enriches us through memory even when we are far from it.

Explanation:

The question is from William Wordsworth's <em>I Wondered Lonely as a Cloud.</em> Wordsworth, being a romantic poet, appreciates the beauty and liveliness of nature. The major theme of the poem is the impact of nature on humans. The poet describes one of his solitary walks and his encounter with "A host, of golden daffodils". He describes the sight as, "Beside the lake, beneath the trees,  Fluttering and dancing in the breeze."

Wordsworth then says that he envisions the sight again in his mind whenever he feels lonely. Now, even though he isn't currently watching them, just the thought of them of remembering them, puts him in a state of nostalgia.
