Schach [20]

Answer:

"The Wedding Gift" by Marlen Suyapa Bodden revolves around the life of a woman named Clarissa and her 'wedding gift' slave from her father. And one of the main themes in this story is that of slavery and how discriminatory or inferior the slaves were treated in the South parts of America.

Explanation:

Marlen Suyapa Bodden's "The Wedding Gift," tells the story of how a woman named Clarissa and her 'wedding gift slave "Sarah" who turned out to be her half-sister, a product of their father's secret sexual affair with his slave Emmeline. This story delves into the issue of slavery in the American South, the positions of slaves and their hardships and the issue of class/ belonging among different races, and also especially on the 'inferiority' of the female gender compared to the males.

<u>One dominant issue in the story is that of slavery</u>. This is seen in the lives, the different lives of the two sisters Clarissa and Sarah. While Clarissa, as a white woman, is an accepted daughter of Allen and have full access to her father's world, Sarah, on the other hand, is just a small slave girl who is passed on like a piece of property. She was given by Allen to Clarissa as a wedding gift, and when her husband divorced her, she remained a part of Clarissa's 'belongings' that she takes along with her wherever her life leads.

In discussing Gary’s story about an animal rescue operation, Sally said:
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

"Instead of focusing on how well the story works, Sally voices her personal opinion about the story’s subject matter." (2nd choice)

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, you need to understand the passage/quote completely. Once you do that, you look at all of the answer choices and find which one is the most relevant. It isn't the first choice because Sally never shows that she wants the writer to explain anything. It isn't the third choice because she doesn't focus on the positive points or the negative points of the story; she only focuses on her opinion. It isn't the last choice because Sally never says anything about any grammatical errors. This leaves the second choice.

<em>Hope this helps! :-)</em>

In the story "The Neglected Senses", what does Choden think caused her blindness?
quester [9]

Answer:

Choden believed that when her mother was pregnant with her, a cow kicked her mother's stomach and that led to her blindness.

Explanation:

Choden was a young blind girl who was <em>pink-cheeked</em> and <em>loves to smile.</em> She was one year younger than Yangchen, who was also blind. It is said that most of the time, her eyes were shut but sometimes, s<em>he would open her left eye </em>as if it were consuming the color and light that it sees.

Choden responded to the narrator when asked about what caused her blindness while Choden and Yangchen were guiding the narrator. This belief of hers shows how Tibetan people were conscious about <em>reincarnation</em> and<em> karma. </em>

So, this explains the answer.
