Which one of these is an example of an idiom?

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Her abuelito's death reminds her that her father could die, too.

Explanation:

Sandra Cisneros' The House on Mango Street from which the short narrative "Papa Who Wakes Up Tired in the Dark" is taken from is about a young girl Esperanza. Her and her family's life in Chicago in Mango Street and her eventual maturity covers the whole book in short stories/ narratives.

In the part "Papa Who Wakes Up Tired in the Dark", Esperanza recalls how her father had woken her up to tell her about her abuelito/ grandfather. She recalls seeing her "brave Papa" cry, a new side of his father that she had never seen or observed. This train of thought led her to think about her own father's death, which made her decision to "hold my Papa in my arms. I hold and hold and hold him." It reminds her that her own father could die too.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Answer and Explanation:

I was only twelve. The gymnasium seemed so big, but this time it did not intimidate me. This one as well as others had intimidated me for weeks, but now I had conquered them. It had been my very first time competing in a volleyball tournament for my school, and we had won. All the nervousness and anxiety, all that yelling from the coach and teammates had been worth it. We lined up, side by side, facing the seats. My mother and younger brother were there, smiling, happy to see me happy. My mother had made a point of driving me to every single game and watching them to the very end. Somehow, it felt as if the medal I was about to receive was hers as much as it was mine.

All of a sudden, her presence was made even more important. Someone had the idea of inviting the parents onto the court to place the medals around our eager necks. No one else’s parents were there; at least for my team. I was sorry for them, but there she came. She was now everyone’s mother, giving each of my teammates their respective medals and a congratulatory hug. We were all her children for a moment, and sharing my mother had never made me happier.

NOTE: I based this in my real-life experience. Feel free to change anything in order to adapt it to your life.

I need a scarecrow after what you did 

'Cause all of the birds know that I'm almost dead 

I'm barely breathing 

I'm barely awake 

You left me in pieces 

There's no more to break 

Don't wake me up 

Not in this century 

Don't wake me up 

'Cause you're just a ghost inside my head 

You're just a ghost you're never there 

You're just a memory on my lips 

You're just a ghost inside my head 

Oo-oo-oo-oh 

'Cause you're just a ghost inside my head 

I need an angel after what you did 

'Cause you were the devil you messed with my head 

You lied to my mother 

You lied to my friends 

You said that you'd be there 

But this never ends 

Don't wake me up 

Not in this century 

Don't wake me up 

'Cause you're just a ghost inside my head 

You're just a ghost you're never there 

You're just a memory on my lips…
