svp [43]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The author wanted to introduce the book’s background and his purpose for writing.

Explanation:

N. Scott Momaday's memoir "The Way to Rainy Mountain" is a form of travelogue as well as a historical documentation of his attempt to trace his heritage. It also serves as a way of reconnecting to his past, his heritage and his background.

In the prologue, Momaday begins with the description of the mountain and how it had actually been called that. The prologue also gave an introduction to why he was writing this piece, and why he needed to focus on that. Attempting to preserve the traditions and customs of his Kiowa people, Momaday relies on the prologue to give that purpose, focusing on the importance and greatness of the Kiowa people.

The statement that best explains how knowing the definition of <em>trifles</em> is useful in understanding the given passage is the statement B. <em>It shows that older people often ignore or minimize children's feelings.</em>

<em />

Explanation:

In the given context, the noun <em>trifle </em>means <em>a thing of little or no importance.</em><em> </em>As a verb, <em>trifle </em>has a fairly similar meaning: <em>to treat without respect or seriousness. </em>If we understand the meaning of this word, we can understand the given excerpt with no problem: people tend to think that the sorrows of children are unimportant compared to those of grown-up people. If someone thinks that, it doesn't mean that it's true. That is why statement A is incorrect. Statement C is not relevant to the given passage, while statement D states the opposite of what the passage says.
