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:

By saying that she has the voice soft and sad, Judith tries to make the reader empatize with the mother and feel as she is feeling the hurt of seeing her daughter taking desicions that could affect her future, the pain of a mother knowing that she can´t make her daughter do what she wants her to do but still thinks she is making bad desicions.

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.

The answers are:

"In these opening lines, the reader is presented with a narrator who wants to kill the old man because of his eye. The author uses the lines to present a CHARACTER VERSUS SELF conflict. Based on this excerpt, this stage of the plot is most likely to occur in THE CLIMAX.

All of this because the idea entered in the man´s mind and haunted him day and night, that´s when the conflict with himself started.

And the exposition of the "Tell tale" is when the narrator insists that he´s not insane. The rising action is when he is gathering the courage to kill the old man. The climax is when he kills the old man. And the falling action is when the narrator hears the old man´s heart beating.
