Reverend Buckminster sighed. "It doesn't matter if it's true. It matters what people think. It matters that my congregation can

tell me what to think when my son goes out to visit a Negro girl on Malaga Island. It doesn't matter at all how she got you out there."

Answer: Turner's age is not allowing him to fully understand his father's concerns over the racial conflict

Explanation:

Even though the reader is able to see how important Lizzie’s friendship is to Turner, the factor that is most likely affecting Turner’s perspective in this excerpt is that Turner's age is not allowing him to fully understand his father's concerns over the racial conflict.

This can be seen in the excerpt as Reverend Buckminster sighed and was worried about people seeing that his son was going out to visit a Negro girl on Malaga Island.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Which are features of myths? Check all that apply.
EleoNora [17]

 </span>3. Setting is a previous proto-world (somewhat like this one but also different)
.4. Plot may involve interplay between worlds (this world and previous or original world)
.5. Depicts events that bend or break natural laws (reflective of connection to previous world)

8. Evokes the presence of Mystery, the Unknown (has a “sacred” tinge).
9. Reflective and formative of basic structures (dualities: light/dark, good/bad, being/nothingness, raw/cooked, etc.) that we must reconcile. Dualities often mediated by characters in myths.
10. Common theme: language helps order the world (cosmos); thus includes many lists, names, etc.
11. Metaphoric, narrative consideration/explanation of “ontology” (study of being). Myths seek to answer, “Why are we here?” “Who are we?” “What is our purpose?” etc. – life’s fundamental questions

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

C.  A performer relies on being in the public eye for success but still yearns for privacy.

Explanation:

The irony is when what happens is contradictory to what is expected or wanted. In other words, the irony is a rhetorical device that occurs when what one expects and wanted does not happen but rather, the contrary/opposite happens.

In the given passage about performers, the irony is that they rely on public opinion and the public's support for their success as performers. But then, they wanted privacy and to be away from the public. So, this is a complete irony in that while they desire the public for their success, they also yearn for privacy.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
