America has a deeply confused image of itself that is in perpetual tension. We are a nation that takes pride in our ethnic diversity, recognizing its importance in shaping our society and in adding richness to its existence. Yet, we simultaneously insist that we can and must function and live in a race- and color-blind way that ignores these very differences that in other contexts we laud.

Answer:
I began timidly to make up to the humbiest official connected with the boat-the night watchman. he said he was the sone of an English nobleman-either an earl or an alderman, he could not remember which, but believed was boh, his father, the nobleman, loved him, but his mother hated him from the cradle. By and by his father died and his mother siezed the poperty. And from that point my watchman threw off all trammels of date and locality and branched out into a narrative that bristled all along with incrediable adventures; a narrative that was so reeking with bloodshed, and so crammed with hair-breadth escapes and the most engaging and unconscious personal vilanies, that I sat speechless, enjoying, shuddering, wondering, worshiping. It was a sore blight to find out afterward that he was a low, vulgar, ignorant, sentimental, half-witted humbug and an untraveled native of the wilds of Illinois. He had absorbed frontier literature and appropratied its marvels, until int ime he had woven odds and ends of the mess into this yarn, and then gone on telling it to fledglings like me, until he had come to believe it himself. How are these two paragraphs unified-that is, what logical structure ties them together? a. they are unified because the first part provides a general description of the night watchman and the second gives specific exampes. b. they are unified by space; the first discribes the night watchman's face and the second his body c. they are unified by contrast-the second contradicts what we learn in the first d. these paragraphs are not unified ---------------------------------------------------------------- I had to name to methods other than transititon words and give specific examples of each method that Mark Twain uses to achieve coherence. Is this correct? 1. Method -- Subordinating Conjuctions Example -- He had absorbed frontier literature and appropriateed its marvels, until in time he had woven odds 2. Method -- Cordinating Conjuctions Example -- ends of the mess into this yarn, and then gone on teling it to fledglings like me, thanks
