Answer:

Baldwin in his story 'Sonny's Blues' has encouraged sympathy and disdain for certain characters.

Explanation:

'Sonny's Blues' is a short storyy written by James Baldwin. The story is centered around the unnamed narrator and his drug addict brother, Sonny.

The author managed to encourage sympathy or disdain for certain characters in the story by the unnamed narrator. The narrator disdains Sonny's friend who always ask him for money. This was evident when Sonny's friend said that he would have killed his life to which the narrator dissented. The narrator disdained drug addicts of his brother, his brother's friend, and also his students.

The other incident when narrator disdains a character was when he saw a man and tthree woman singing and testifying. He disdained his heritage there. The narrator developed sympathies for the characters when he came to know about their sufferings. For instance, after his daughter's death, he began to sympathise with his brother's sufferings.

Which word in the sentence is the INDIRECT OBJECT ? Will Cheryl show Patricia the pictures of her trip?
STatiana [176]
The correct answer is: B: Patricia. Object in the sentence is the entity that is acted upon by the subject. In this sentence, subject is "Cheryl", and "Cheryl" is doing the action of showing upon "the pictures". "Patricia" is indirectly affected by this action, and so she is the indirect object. Direct object is "the pictures". Types of object are: 1) direct object: entity acted upon. Example: Suzan is making a CAKE. 2) indirect object: entity indirectly affected by the action. Example: Tom sent HER flowers. 3) prepositional object: o<span>bject introduced by a preposition (to, for) Example: Tom is waiting for GEORGE.</span>
