Answer:
E. Drunken.
Explanation:
Frank McCourt's 1996 memoir "Angela's Ashes," tells the story of his own childhood, involving his father Malachy, Sr. and his mother Angela. The memoir covers the life of Frank and his family’s condition during his childhood, the stories from that time, and more majorly his own life in Limerick, Ireland.
There are many terms by which Malachy, Sr. can be described. But as the memoir presents, it is best to describe him as a drunkard. He is not pious, nor litigious or inviolate. He is somewhat of a poltroon, which is another term for a coward. But Malachy, Sr. isn't exactly a coward for even though he did not seem to do things in the right way, he still gets them done in as much as he can manage. He married Angela after being pressured and because of their Catholic faith. Moreover, he also instills the fondness of storytelling in his child and we also come to know that his drinking is a way to hide his bereavement and misfortune.
Thus, the <u>correct description for Malachy, Sr. is option E</u>.
Answer:
"The span of my hips",

Explanation:
The poem "Phenomenal Woman" by Maya Angelou is a poem about a woman confident of her looks and doesn't care about what other people may think or say. She is happy with herself, contented and confident of her own uniqueness.
Irony is a literary figure of speech where what is said differs from what is actually meant. The actual meaning of the thing meant is opposite to how it was said. She uses irony in the poem to assert the fact that beauty is just skin deep, no matter what the perception may be. By refuting the theory that beautiful women are born in a specific way, she asserts that all women are beautiful in their own ways. They just need the confidence to accept that. Contrasting to the normal norms of beautiful woman being fair skinned and tall and thin, Maya exclaims that she, even though an African-American, is beautiful too. This is seen in the lines <em>"The span of my hips", "the flash of my teeth", "the swing of my waist", "the stride of my breasts" </em>etc. She is confidently refuting the perception of a beautiful woman as a thin, tall, fair body.
