Hi. Your question asks for a literary analysis of the texts "Response to Executive Order 9066" and "Mericans." In this analysis, you must show your perception of the themes covered in the text, the techniques used by the authors and the way in which these themes are developed.

As an analysis is your personal perception of the text, I cannot do this analysis for you, but I can show you how to do it.

Firstly, it is important that you read the texts and identify the topics covered. In general, both texts address the lives of foreigners, mestizos and people of different ethnicities in America. However, these themes are approached in very different ways. In "Response to Executive Order 9066" the author discusses how racism, discrimination and the existence of stereotypes with foreigners or descendants affect people's lives.

In this story, we meet an Nipo-American girl who is unfairly accused by her friend, a white American girl. The entire charge is based on racism and xenophobia. The author of this text, however, approaches this issue with delicacy, showing that although xenphobia is painful and present in the country, there is hope that it will be overcome through love and tolerance among people.

"Mericans" also addresses the experience of foreigners in America. The author addresses the life of Mexicans, who when living in America, begin to abandon their native customs, which are suppressed by American customs, although these people are not considered Americans by society. In this book, the author addresses themes such as acculturation and cultural identification.

After reading these two texts, you should write down your perceptions of how these themes are worked throughout the text and organize a five-paragraph essay that should be done as follows:

  • 1st paragraph: This paragraph will be the introduction, where you will briefly present the two texts and present your position in relation to them, that is, you will briefly and objectively present your opinion about them. This will be your thesis statement.
  • 2nd Paragraph: Here you can present your insights into "Response to Executive Order 9066." In this paragraph you will show what you think of the theme, how this theme is worked, how the author reinforces this theme and the types of reflection it causes.
  • 3rd paragraph: Here you will present your perceptions of "Mericans" and show how the themes are covered, their perceptions and how the author works on these themes to provoke reflection in the readers.
  • 4th paragraph: In this paragraph, you will show how these two works are similar and different, even if they approach similar themes and can be easily related.
  • 5th paragraph: Here you will complete the text and show how these issues are presented in real life and how they can be solved, leaving society a much better place.

sineoko [7]

A few other ways to reduce pollution could be to reduce the use of single-used plastics like water bottles, straws and utensils. To recycle properly,  as it helps keeps plastic out of the ocean.

Organizing Cleanup campaigns and spreading the word, for example to help remove plastic from a local beach.

To support bans, or the adoption of them in your community. There's many municipalities where there's plastic bags bans or straw bans for example.

We should avoid products containing microbeads (tiny plastic particles), we can find them on face scrubs, toothpastes and bodywashes.

Lastly, we could definitely support organization that address these situations such as Oceanic Society, 5 Gyres, Algalita, etc

Summary of the story jump away
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The boys are being challenged to jump of a bridge by a high school bully.

Explanation:

I think the theme of this short storiy is sometimes standing up to greater powers may cause punishment but it is still the right thing to do. An example of this is when Mike the bully is counting and instead of jumping on three Fenny jumps on two. Fenny didn't want to conform to Mikes rule so he jumps on his own. It's his life to control and not Mikes. Although Mike gets mad at him and punches Fenny, Fenny knows he did the right thing.

One symbol in this story is the man a girl fishing up stream from the bridge. this symbolizes calmness, of how he is about to do this stunt but is focused on these two fishers. The way he looks in the distance to focus on something so simple as people fishing while he has this mean bully yelling at him, making him jump off a bridge.
