Answer:

D. I tried to guide my raft with the pole but it spun around

Explanation:

In the story, By the Waters of Babylon by Steven Vincent Benet, the narrator says "I do not know the customs of rivers—we are the People of the Hills", yet he works hard to guide his raft with the pole. Since "the current of  the great river is very strong—it gripped my raft with its hands", the narrator is afraid, "swept down the stream" , but then his heart feels strong. The narrator cries "I am a priest and the son of a priest" and he was able " to paddle with the pole on one side of the raft. The current  changed itself—I drew near to the Place of the Gods". The narrator's character is shaped by the physical environment.

Explanation:

An editing effect is the cross dissolve. It can signify the changing of a scene, softly, as in the passage of time. Another editing effect is the cutaway, which can be used as a sneaky way to get rid of an unwanted part of the previous shot. But mainly the cutaway can be a comedic way to show another character's reaction to something.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

In “Everyday Use,” Alice Walker argues that an African-American is both African and American, and to deny the American side of one's heritage is disrespectful of one's ancestors and, consequently, harmful to one's self. She uses the principal characters of Mama, Dee (Wangero), and Maggie to clarify this theme.

Explanation:

” are the Black Consciousness movement, rural versus urban Black identity, and tradition, heritage, and ownership.But Walker's main purpose in the story seems to be to challenge the Black Power movement, and black people in general, to acknowledge and respect their American heritage. The history of Africans in America is filled with stories of pain, injustice, and humiliation.

What is a summary of the hydrophobic skunk
lorasvet [3.4K]

When creating a summary, you will want to begin the summary with the name of the piece, who wrote the piece, then follow it up with the thesis of the piece to be summarized.  When providing a summary, it is important to be as objective as possible.  What this means is that you will want to exclude any and all opinion from the summary as well as any analysis.  You should only include a bland retelling of the facts and nothing but the facts, which, again, should be free of your opinion.
