Answer:
In the novel Grapes of Wrath, the American Dream has been portrayed as a failed proomise by the author. The characters were able to relate to this failed promise of American Dream when they came to America in search of occupation during the Dust Bowl.
Explanation:
'The Grapes of Wrath' is a novel written by John Steinbeck. The novel narrates the story of Joads and their migration to California in search of work from their homeland Oklahoma during the Dust Bowl.
The author has tried to portray the failure of American Dream in the novel. For most people, American Dream has been a promise of liberty, freedom, and success. But the author depicted the picture of failing of American Dream for thousands of immigrants who came to American cities from Oklahoma, Texas, etc during the period of Dust Bowl.

The dreams of success or work, with which the immigrants came to California was broken when they were charged more for their stay at the farms then they could earn</u>.
She just keeps practicing it.
1. The phrase that directly states the purpose of the Declaration of Independence is "declare the causes". That is precisely what this document did - it declared the causes for American people to break loose of British colonialism and domination, and to claim their political independence and self-determination.
2. The theme of this passage is best described as: "the British legislature extended an unwarranted jurisdiction over the colonies". The British colonial politics have transcended the boundaries, endangering the Americans' right to self-governance. That is precisely why the Americans wanted to become independent.
3. These lines are an example of ethos. Jefferson uncovers a deep ethical problem that is the basis of the British domination <span>of </span>America. He says that Americans had petitioned (therefore, they had made formal requests, they had tried all the peaceful procedures), but instead of being answered, they had suffered an even greater oppression. His conclusion that such a prince is a tyrant is ethical in nature.
4. These lines are an example of a thesis. He proclaims that they are declaring freedom and independence, so this is a thesis that needs to be explained, argued, expounded - which the document does further below. This statement is a premise which has yet to be proved with facts and arguments.
5. I believe these lines are an example of pathos. He says that people are prone to tolerating their own suffering, in order not to change the situation they are accustomed to. Pathos, as a rhetorical technique, is supposed to provoke an emotional reaction with the listeners/readers. In this case, the audience would identify with the sufferers from the passage, but would also get scared that their suffering might not come to an end. This emotional reaction is supposed to provoke action and support for Jefferson's ideas.
There are struggles along the way
