Norrator point of view about the life of an adult her culture in the "excerpt from minuk :ashes in the path way
Explanation:
Hill's (The Year of Miss Agnes ) finely detailed novel set in a Yup'ik Eskimo village in the 1890s feels mesmerizingly authentic.
Minuk, the narrator, is 12 the spring that the missionary family arrives, and like the other children she is fascinated by the sight of her first kass'aq (white) woman and child. She can't imagine what the "sort of pink butterfly" hanging from the clothesline is (a corset, which astonishes her still further), and when Mrs. Hoff invites her inside for a cup of tea, she sits on a chair for the first time (and tips hers over) and slurps loudly, "to be polite." These initial misunderstandings may be comic, but the encounters between the Hoffs and the Yup'ik have grave consequences. Mr. and Mrs. Hoff condemn the villagers' rituals and practices. Yet, as seen through Minuk's eyes, the customs make sense, and Hill demonstrates that the Yup'ik belief systems are at least as coherent as Hoffs' version of Christianity ("If your god is love," Minuk asks Mr. Hoff, "why does he make people burn in hell?"). The author penetrates Yup'ik culture to such an extent that readers are likely to find the Hoffs more foreign than Minuk and her family. At the same time, the author doesn't glamorize the villagers, in particular exposing the severe conditions facing women. Not only the heroine but the vanished society here feel alive in their complexities. Ages 9-12. (Oct.)

A. brief examples
B. synthetic examples
C. repetitive examples
D. enumerated examples
E. informative examples
Answer:
The kind of supporting materials being used in the excerpt is:
A. brief examples
.
Explanation:
<u>The purpose of using brief examples is to simply further illustrate or demonstrate something to the audience that they may not know, that is not so obvious to them. That is precisely what we have in the excerpt we are analyzing here. The speaker merely wishes to show his/her audience that there are several couples in Hollywood who have been married for quite some time. There is no need to used, for instance, an extended example here. What has been said so far is not so complex as to demand a lengthy example</u>. Notice that the speaker is not necessarily enumerating the couples, nor is he/she providing two much information about them. Their names and how long they've been married are briefly stated, which is enough for the purpose of illustrating the affirmation that "Not all Hollywood marriages are doomed to quick failure."
