Discussion #7: Walker: "Everyday Use"
iogann1982 [59]

The question above wants to assess your ability to interpret a text and argue over that interpretation. For that reason, I can't write this script for you, but I'll show you how you can write it.

First, you need to understand what Dee and Magie represent in the story and what qualities they both have that make them apt to inherit the quilts. You can search for articles that analyze the two characters and give you greater insight into the two girls.

Based on that, you can write your argument as follows:

  1. Introduce who you deem worthy of receiving the quilts.
  2. Show what these quilts represent.
  3. Show the reasons why you considered this girl deserving of the quilts.
  4. Show why the other girl is not worthy of receiving the quilts.

Importantly, Dee is a woman who became involved in black activism, defending the exposure and pride of African ancestry. However, this placement is seen as something aesthetic for Dee's family. Her mother doesn't believe that Dee is actually representing black people, as black people are resilient people who take care of their families and face challenges with courage rather than ornaments like Maggie.

Identify the correlative conjunction in the following sentence.
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

B. Either... or...

Explanation:

Conjunctions are words used to connect other words, phrases, or clauses. There are three main types of conjunctions:

  • Coordinating conjunctions - used to connect two elements (words/phrases/clauses) of equal grammatical rank and importance (e.g. two independent clauses).
  • Subordinating conjunctions - used to connected elements of unequal rank and importance (e.g. one independent and one subordinating clause).
  • Correlative conjunctions - used in pairs to connect elements of equal importance (e.g. <em>both/and, </em><em>either/or</em><em>, neither/nor, not/but</em>).

Based on this information, we can conclude that the correlative conjunction in the given sentence is<em> either/or. </em>

How does the stranger's interaction with Elisa at her garden differ from Hendy's interaction with her at her garden?
mash [69]

 The stranger's interaction with Elisa was a bit awkward since they were not introduced formally and Elisa was a bit professional as she entertains the stranger. On the other hand, Elisa was comfortable with Henry since they have been friends for a while already.
