In "When Mr. Pirzada Came to Dine" by Jhumpa Lahiri, Mr. Pirzada gives Lilia candy every time he visits her and her family, and Lilia keeps the candy in a special sandalwood box that once belonged to her grandmother. To Lilia, the candy symbolized Mr. Pirzada's hope that his family was okay, and she saved and ate the candies in a manner of prayer because she had faith that his family was safe and being taken care of.
Thoreau uses several subordinate sentences, preventing the reader from stopping reading and having to finish a paragraph to have a complete understanding.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- Subordinate sentences are sentences that do not have full meaning.
- These sentences need a complement to get a message across to the reader.
- In this case, these sentences reinforce the need to complete the reading, as the paragraph has to be read completely to be understood.
This is directly connected with Thoreau's intention in the text because by using subordinate sentences, he reinforces the idea that the reader has to finish the paragraph to understand the relationship he is establishing between ants and human beings.

Read the passage from “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.”
<em>Mrs. Bertha Flowers was the aristocrat of Black Stamps. She had the grace of control to appear warm in the coldest weather, and on the Arkansas summer days it seemed she had a private breeze which swirled around, cooling her. She was thin without the taut look of wiry people, and her printed voile dresses and flowered hats were as right for her as denim overalls for a farmer. She was our side's answer to the richest white woman in town.</em>
The passage above describes how Marguerite thinks of Mrs. Bertha Flowers. We learn of this opinion based on the things that Marguerite chooses to highlight about Mrs. Flowers. Marguerite describes how Mrs. Flowers was an sort of "aristocrat," which implies a cultured woman. She also talks about Mrs. Flowers in ways that suggest grace and elegance. This implies that Marguerite cares about culture.
