How does alice walker utilize literacy devices to create her theme in the story “Everyday usage”

English
1 answer:
Dimas [21]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

She employs the literary device of "irony". Dee's ill-equipped understanding of her own heritage supports this claim. She tells her mother "that she does not understand her heritage." There is also irony in the lack of appetite for the food that has been prepared by her mother.  

Explanation:

This is the most prevalent device Alice Walker uses.

PLS HELP ASAP THIS IS DUE TODAY. Write a sonnet about nature .​
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

(NOT MY SONNET)

Explanation:

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimm’d;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;

Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st;

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

According to "Astrophysicist Chronicles Battle over Pluto," why did Dr. Tyson
zimovet [89]

Answer:

According to "Astrophysicist Chronicles Battle over Pluto," Dr. Tyson decide to exclude Pluto from the exhibits of planets, because it displays the characteristics of an icy body rather than a planet.

Explanation:

Astrophysicist Chronicles Battle over Pluto is a story of one of our solar system planet ‘Pluto.’ When Will Galmot visited the American Museum of Natural History, he noticed that it included hundreds of planet except Pluto. So he sent a letter to the museum authorities as to why Pluto isn’t included.

In 2006 when Dr. Tyson excluded the planet Pluto and labeled it as ‘dwarf planet’ he was criticized my many and he gave a justification by stating that, Pluto is no more than just a icy body, we cannot label Pluto a planet. If Pluto takes the place of earth, from the rays coming from sun will would dry up that ice and what will remain will just be a piece of its tail.’
