<span>The characters' relationship to the carp changes over the course of Wang's poem, "The Carp." At the beginning of the poem, before the father is beaten and imprisoned, the characters view the carp in a positive way. The day the speaker was born, we are told her father caught a 20-pound carp. At this point, the characters view the carp as a good omen, a sign of blessing. By the end of the poem, fishing for carp no longer makes the father happy, because now carp remind him of pain and suffering. At the end of the poem, the father only catches small fish. Over the course of the poem, the characters' relationship to the carp changes, moving from a positive relationship to a negative one. That is because the carp comes to symoblize suffering and injustice.</span>

Which of the following is NOT an opinion expressed by the men on Joe’s porch?
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

C. Sykes is a violent man who has killed three women

Explanation:

This is the question regarding Zora Neale Hurston's short story "Sweat".

The story tells about Delia, a wash-woman, who is married to Sykes, an abusive, unfaithful, violent husband.

The particular question refers to the scene where few local men, after seeing Delia carrying laundry on her pony, start talking about her.

They first noticd how hardworking she is and how fifteen years of bad marriage changed her appearance.

Then they start talking about her husband, Sykes, blaming him for mistreating his wife, expressing their lack of nice words for him.

However, although considering him violent, they don't state that he has killed three women; they only say the amount of beating Delia took was enough to kill three women, which can be seen from the line:

"He done beat huh ‘nough tuh kill three women, let ‘lone change they looks,” said Elijah Moseley.

Mice21 [21]
<span>C. She lives on the twentieth floor of an old apartment building somewhere in Manhattan. 

This option is accurate since it contains articles and modifiers that are grammatically correct:

i) "the" is used before the word "twentieth" (a noun modified by ordering- i.e. first, second, third, and so on...)
ii) "an" is used before the word "old" (which begins with a vowel)
