A benefit of using allegories in your poetry writing can be:
olga55 [171]
The answer is B. They are easy to understand. 
The utilization of Allegory has started a long time ago as it was simple for the readers and audiences to understand. It uses metaphor to enhance the meaning of the piece. It would be very hard to miss a point of this kind of writing since characters are most of the time pointedly named by the qualities the portray or represent.

Are my sentences strong enough? (Do I have to change or add anything?)
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

I would change "Martin's and his family" to "Martin and his family's" and "his family" doesn't need to be in parentheses.

I would change the first commentary sectence to "Martin's Grandfather speaks in sioux which is his native language." and go into futher explanation on what he "knows". It's kind of a cliff hanger.

For the second commentary sentence, you should make sure to mention who's grandfather you're talking about if they are multiple in the story. Also I would change the sentence to "The grandfather exhibits his culture while wearing traditional clothing. The traditional clothing is typically worn by people of his tribe."

For the last commentary sentence, I would change it to "The quote states that the males in the family still follow traditions because it will eventually be passed down through generations.
