Answer:

“Eleven” by Sandra Cisneros, uses many literary devices to characterize a complex eleven-year-old. Rachel, the ingenuous 1st person narrator, relates the details of her humiliating eleventh birthday. Although her diction reflects her age, Rachel conveys the difficulty of growing up with adult precision. She is embarrassed and feels helpless, but knows she will soon be home with her parents, and her terrible day will drift away. Rachel’s age is given away not only by the title, but by her word choice. She employs numerous similes, describing crying like uncontrollable hiccups, drinking milk to fast, and little animal noises. Her confidence rattles like “pennies in a tin Band-Aid Box,” and she is always on the edge of lapsing into another session of tears. However, Rachel’s diction does not simple betray her.

Hello, could you please help me with a few questions I have with English?

This is either Gum from k12 or plain English right? Ok first things first. 

You know the difference between Complex and Compound correct?

Complex: A sentence consisting of at least one dependent clauses and at least two independent clauses

For example: "The expert who examined this scroll said that it was more than one thousand years old."

Compound: A compound sentence is made up of two or more independent clauses, usually joined by a conjunction and, or, but, though.

For example: "I wanted to walk the dog, but it was raining."

Having this knowledge in mind you have to realize that complex is not the correct answer. Compound is the correct answer. 

2.<span> Dangling modifier is the error in the sentence.</span>

3. <span>Most of the teachers are Americans, though a few came from England and France. Main clause: Most of the teachers are Americans. Subordinate clause type: Adverb</span>

4. You must remember that a <span>modifier is a word, phrase, or clause which functions as an adjective or an adverb to describe a word or make its meaning more specific. The one mentioned above, for example is: pick. You are definitely correct. </span>

8. How does Maupassant develop the narrator's character
olga_2 [115]

This story is not a usual one. It talks about how our views and ideas can be judgmental and hurtful. It puts us (readers) in a point where we start thinking about our own perspectives.

Explanation:

This story has two main components as symbols - belief and honesty. The author wants to describe the entire scene in darkness. He excludes elements that give us 'hope' in our lives.

The woman who the narrator loved deceived him. She portrayed to be a faithful, honest and innocent woman who loved him deeply. This was an impression that everyone had about her including the narrator.

The story starts off with an exclamation of grief, where he yells 'I had loved her madly!'. From this part of the story, he continues to talk and express his love/emotion towards his lover. He continues to suffer in her loss, goes to places where he can relive moments, visits her grave and sits there for hours. He reads the messages on the tombstones where the story ends.

The entire course of story makes us understand that he understand how she deceived him from the beginning till the end.
