Answer:
The quote is about how when we are young, we are told to savour our youth because it's fleeting. When you're young though, it can feel like forever and it's harder to see how fleeting youth truly is. I believe this was included at the start of the novel because the book later follows Connor, who is only a boy.
The underlined phrase is this one:
"<span>fog rolling down the river"
The correct answer is this one: "Absolute Phrase." </span><span>Absolute phrases do not directly connect to or modify any specific word in the rest of the sentence; instead, they modify the entire sentence, adding information. </span>
Answer:
I disagree with the statement that "Crooks is NOT a victim of racism". This is because, the possession of books, furniture, and having his own room doesn't give him the freedom to mingle with the other ranch hands. Rather, they keep him alone so that he won't be among them, and they won't have to be near him.
Explanation:
Crooks is the black stable buck in John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men". He lives alone in the stable and not among the other ranch hands who stay in the bunkhouse.
The statement that "Crooks . . . is NOT a victim of racism" is not true. According to me, even with all the personal possessions (own room, furniture, and books), his living quarter is in the stable, with the animals and not with other human beings in the bunkhouse. His statement to Lennie <em>"I ain't wanted in the bunkhouse, and you ain't wanted in my room</em>" is evidence of how class/ race disparity is there even among the workers. He also added <em>"They play cards in there, but I can't play because I'm black. They say I stink."</em> This clearly shows the division among the workers, though they are all under Curley.
Therefore, it is <u>wrong to say that Crooks is NOT a victim of racism</u>.
