Hey there!

That's an amazing question.

Below's my answer:

Let's compare and contrast these books (focusing on education and communication).

<u>The Story of My  Life</u>

  • Written by Hellen Keller
  • Author discusses her many constraints in growing up
  • Education was available, but, until she learned Braille, life was hard
  • She found it hard to communicate
  • 1st person autobiography
  • Describes how her life was changed with Anne Sullivan
  • Has extraordinary language (high-leveled)

<u>Maniac Magee</u>

  • Written by Jerry Spinelli
  • Talks about an White orphan who runs away to a small town in Pennsylvania, Two Mills
  • Education was there, Grayson offered, Maniac refused (he was the only White)
  • Is shy
  • Describes how Maniac's life was changed when he went to Two Mills (Mars Bar, Amanda Beale, et cetera)
  • Uses slang to convey tone, mood, and theme

Looking at the above points, we can presume that both <u>Maniac Magee</u> and <u>The Story of My Life</u> discuss the struggles that occur when growing up (education and communication) when you are seen differently.

MRS. HALE. I’d hate to have men coming into my kitchen, snooping around and criticizing. Which word has a meaning similar to “sn
Softa [21]

Intruding

The overall tone of Mrs. Hale's dialogue is negative. She does not want the men in her kitchen. This is one way which intruding is the answer because she sees the men as intruders. There is nothing to indicate the men are searching for something. Peering has the negative connotation; however, peering usually indicates the person is not directly looking at something or rather trying to secretly look. Substituting the word "looking" is not enough. It doesn't contain the negative connotation that the rest of Mrs. Hale's dialogue indicates.
