English
1 answer:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago

Answer:

A conjunction is used for connecting two or more clauses, words, phrases or sentences.

Explanation:

In English language, a conjunction can be defined as an English word that is typically used for connecting two or more clauses, words, phrases or sentences.

Basically, conjunctions are mainly considered to be transitional words. Thus, they help to make sure that the contents of a literary work are logical and in harmony.

Hence, conjunctions are used by writers to connect (join) sentences together and create a flow of their ideas and thoughts.

Some examples of conjunction are but, and, although, because, or, yet, etc.

Why do you think Mae was upset with the man in the yellow suit for taking Winnie against her will, even though she had done the
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The scene is similar in that they both took Winnie Foster away from her safety zone, displacing her from her own comfortable place.

But then again, the situations are different as Mae had no evil intention behind her decision to take Winnie. But the man, on the other hand, had far more sinister ideas in mind behind the 'offer' to 'rescue' Winnie from the Tucks.

Explanation:

Natalie Babbitt's children novel <em>Tuck Everlasting</em> tells the story of how a family came to be immortal from their accidental drinking of water from a stream in the forest. And it is this 'immortality' that led to the disastrous event which led to the loss of a good friend Winnie.

When the<em> "man in the yellow suit"</em> took Winnie against her will to return her back to her family, Mae/ Mother Tuck took her husband's shotgun. She fired and killed the man, for she knows that the man wanted nothing but evil intentions. When asked why she did what she did, she replied that <em>"he was taking the child against against her will"</em> which is also exactly what she did.

These two situations of Winnie being taken away against her will are similar in that the two adults took advantage of her, without asking for her approval. Winnie had no choice but do what she is told to do so.

But for Mae, she had no evil intention except reveal the truth about her family's immortality and also provide a chance for her family to have an interaction with a real, living <em>"natural child"</em>. But the man had wanted to 'trade' on the water, trying to get it t more deserving people. That is how different the two situations are.

s revealing the outcome of the plot in the prologue an effective technique for creating suspense, or would you prefer not to be
Agata [3.3K]
Revealing the outcome in the prologue dilutes the story of any suspense. It is mandatory for any reader to read the prologue to know the basics of the story. And being told what is going to happen is like knowing that Darth Vader is Luke's father before you even watch the movies. I would prefer not to be told what happens in the story, because it gives the novel or section of writing the upper hand in obtaining and keeping the readers attention throughout the story.

I hope this helps you!

What are the writer's purposes for using irony in "Arrangement in Black and White"? Select all that apply.
Mademuasel [1]
I would say the writer is using irony in Arrangement in  Black and White to emphasize the woman's contradictions that basically while she says she loves "colored" people then she says she loves them because they are "just like children" always singing and laughing so while she says she loves them she shows she has a condescending attitude towards them even though later on she says basically we are all humans aren't we so is obviously of two minds.
