Answer:

D. By describing the voice of Elenita's mother as soft and sad, the author emphasizes her hurt, leaving the reader sympathetic to her.

Explanation:

Ortiz Cofer's work explores the breaks and holes that emerge between her split cultural legacies. Her initial drenching in both Puerto Rican and American culture molded her multi-kind methodology, which incorporates works of fiction, writing, verse, and some of the time a mix of the three. Her work The Latin Deli, which was selected for a Pulitzer-Prize, investigates different types, joining verse, short fiction, and individual account. She was additionally a writer of children's books.

Mice21 [21]

Almost all assignments, no matter how complicated, can be reduced to a single question. Your first step, then, is to distill the assignment into a specific question. For example, if your assignment is, “Write a report to the local school board explaining the potential benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade class,” turn the request into a question like, “What are the potential benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade class?” After you’ve chosen the question your essay will answer, compose one or two complete sentences answering that question.

<span>Q: “What are the potential benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade class?”A: “The potential benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade class are . . .”</span>

OR

A: “Using computers in a fourth-grade class promises to improve . . .”

The answer to the question is the thesis statement for the essay.
