What do you understand by the phrase, “When I wasn’t in the crow’s nest?

English

Answer:

On a ship, the crow's nest is a small platform high up on the mast, where a person can go to look in all directions.

So the phrase, " When I wasn't in the crow's nest could have many different interpretation, depending on the way you look at it. My interpretation of the phrase is that you can see all directions in the crows nest of a ship. When you aren't in the crows nest you can't see all directions. So the crow's nest could symbolise you didn't know where you were going or what you were doing something in life for. In addition, it could syblolise you were blind to your surroundings or you had no purpose in life. These are jyst a few interpretations I have of the phrase but obviously, everybody's interpretations are different.

Read the following excerpt from Sandra Cisneros’s story "Mericans."
kenny6666 [7]

The statement that describes the irony in the narrator's observation that the couple is "not from here" is "the narrator is not from 'here' either," option A.

<h3>What is irony?</h3>

Irony is usually described as a situation where the consequences or outcome is different from what we initially expected. Here, however, we are looking for the irony found in the narrator's words in the story "Mericans."

In this case, the irony is not about the situation or its outcome per se. It relates more to who is saying what about whom. The girl who narrates the story is "not from here," which means she is not completely American. She is of Mexican origin, but she still judges the couple she sees by saying they were clearly "not from here."

In other words, the irony is that everyone is "not from here" to someone. The narrator is "not from here" in the sense that she is Mexican. The couple is "not from here" in the sense that they are not Catholics.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.
