Svetllana [295]3 years ago
4 0
She initially admits that she doesn't feel much toward Thanksgiving, but then progresses to reflecting on the unique memories from her childhood that stick out; she realizes that her perception of tradition was surrounded by a desire to explore and see more variation in the world, experience the new. As she grows older she sees the blatant consumerism and the beauty of 'togetherness' marred by expectations of spending lots of money. As she spends more time with friends and others, they begin to see differently how Thanksgiving can be viewed from multiple perspectives; as she then marries to a husband with a larger family, more diverse, she sees the dichotomy of willing to be in a group of people but also alone. Through reflection she realizes that she actually yearns for the solitude that her childhood Thanksgiving's brought her, and the quiet time with family.

garri49 [273]

Two or more adjectives which modify the subject

Answer: Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Adjectives modify or affect the meaning of nouns and pronouns and tell us which, whose, what kind, and how many about the nouns or pronouns they modify. The adjectives come before the noun or the pronoun they modify.

They add basically a quality to the noun or the pronoun which describe what kind of noun it was. For example if the particular sentence talks about a girl, the adjective will say that whether the girl was tall or pretty or short or any other quality about the girl.
