Read this excerpt from "Collision Course.” Now I felt like a friendless alien in this wide-open suburb. The openness of it just

made me feel small and more alone. In our apartment in the Richmond District, there were always people walking around, and the neighborhood was always humming with fruit sellers, taquerias, and restaurants, especially Chinese restaurants and my favorite, dim sum bakeries. And you could rely on the street noise and interesting smells. The Geary and Clement bus lines ran late into the night and started up again early in the morning. Something was always happening. Our neighborhood was alive. It was my dream childhood.
In this excerpt, the author uses descriptive language mainly to

appeal to the reader’s sense of taste.
explain many of the things he misses.
share his favorite places in Richmond.
appeal to the reader’s sense of smell.

What is the speaker suggesting in the lines below from Walt Whitman's poem
valkas [14]

Answer:

In this passage, Whitman is celebrating how the death and life of his self and his body are interconnected with the natural world.

Explanation:

When we die, the physical substance of the body—literally the molecules of the flesh—rot away to become once again a part of the natural world. But the same thing is true when we are living. We breathe in the molecules of the air, which become a part of us, even as they began as a part of other things. "Song of Myself" is all about these kinds of transcendent connections. Whitman is celebrating his "self" ("I celebrate myself, and sing myself"), but he's doing so by acknowledging the ways his self relies on the forces and energies and bodies of the natural and human worlds around him.

3. The biographies discuss Orwell’s different experiences in Spain and Burma, which forever affected his political views. Based
Gwar [14]

Answer and Explanation:

Orwel abhorred imperialism and saw it as a source of misery, submission, exploitation and oppression by the peoples. For him, imperialism caused problems that were very difficult to solve and very violent, being an unfair and immoral political game.

Orwell was a progressive and was faithful with fidelity to freedom and social well-being and for that reason he criticized all political aspects, although he was sympathetic to the leftist and socialist ideas, he criticized the utopian idea that these two aspects defended, because they knew that the political, social and economic problems of the world were difficult and needed solutions that were also difficult. As he defended the citizens' freedom, he also criticized communism and the limitation and control that it emitted in the peoples he dominated.
