Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about "The Glass Castle".

Answer:

The author decided to include the scene with Dinitia and the pool to show how the blacks who already suffered a lot of discrimination were more tolerant of people with bad life situations. This is a defining moment in Jeannette's life, because it allows her to befriend and allows her to recognize tolerant, friendly and good behaviors.

Explanation:

The Glass Castle is a book written by Jeannette Walls, where she tells the stories of her childhood, living in a dangerous environment, with dysfunctional parents and intense family problems. In this story the author Jeannette tells how the other children refused her company at the pool because they said that she lived in the garbage (the house she lived in was very old and worn out) and that it would be a source of illness, since she had a family situation and economics so bad. Jeannette is very sad about the situation, but finds a friendship with Dinitia who says that she can use the pool with black children.

Jeannette is well received by black people who use the pool, since they understand what it is like to be discriminated against, besides, she makes a good friendship with Dinitia, which influences her childhood positively.

In at least 150 words, discuss the contrasts that exist in “Aunt Imogen.”
Ray Of Light [21]
<span>Edward Arlington Robinson wrote a poem called “Aunt Imogen” which takes into deep consideration the life of a woman who lives in the city far from her sister's farm but every now and then she visits her sister. His poem is considered part of early modernism because of his use of traditional verse form, but rather than describing actions of the character the poet looks into consideration Aunt imogen's reflection on her life, her realizations, and her attempt to cope with her circumstances. His work is much different because of his use of connotative and figurative language, and the themes of alienation and of self-reflection of the life of Aunt Imogen, a the end of the poem aunt imogen learns to cope with her feelings stating that “<span>They were not hers, not even one of them: She was not born to be so much as that, For she was born to be Aunt Imogen”</span></span>

Which is the BEST definition of package as it is used in this sentence
Marina86 [1]

A) First Option

Reason: I did Process Of Elimination. The last definition talking about London, is not it, the one before the last one talks about a charge made for goods, which is also not it. Also, a bundle made for transportation, that's not money, that's like Carrots being sent to the store. So, to me, it has to be the first option.
