A&P significance of the quote “young married screaming with her children”

English
1 answer:
Sholpan [36]2 years ago
7 0

As much as Sammy seems to disapprove of them, he knows the rules in the A&P. After describing at length how much skin Queenie is showing above the top of her bathing suit and how white her naked shoulders are, he finally describes her hair, face, and how she holds her head. Her hair is in a bun, which, although "unravelling," is still a more conservative hairstyle. Her face, he says, is "kind of prim." Thus, Queenie's hairstyle and expression look proper. She also "held her head so high her neck ... looked kind of stretched, " which suggests to him she is elegant and self-contained, and which only enhances her beauty to Sammy. Since the rest of her is at odds with A&P propriety, Queenie's proper hairstyle,"prim face," and confident posture may act as a shield against the shocked looks of other customers. The contrast also suggests that looking at Queenie as either proper or improper may be simplistic, when he has never seen her before she entered the store.

The correct answers are B. To learn about traveling to Italy and D. TO learn about Mark Twain

Explanation:

In the excerpt, Mark Twain describes his experiences while visiting Italy; this includes a detailed description of the places he visited such as the Leaning Tower and the Duomo (cathedral), as well as his impression of the places. For example, in "makes your flesh creep, and convinces you for a single moment in spite of all your philosophy" Twain describes his thoughts and emotions when he tried to see the base of the leaning tower.

According to this, the two purposes that fit the content of this text are to learn about traveling to Italy because the text focuses on describing important touristic places in this country; and to learn about Mark Twain because the text is a memoir of Mark Twain, and therefore shows readers the life, emotions, and experiences of this writer.

Aleonysh [2.5K]
Although using the POV of a story can be helpful in determining the author's point of view (especially in light of who the main character is in the story), it also helps to consider the background details of the author and the story itself. Things like knowing where the story takes place and what the climate (political and social) where like as at the time, can add to the background and understanding of the author and his viewpoints.
