<u>______________________________________________</u>

Thanhha Lai was born in the country of Vietnam. She and her family escaped to Alabama at the end of the war. She learned English from fourth-graders there, and then spent the next ten years improving her grammar. She began her journalism career as a reporter at The Orange County Register. She shifted to fiction, earning an MFA from New York University and having short stories published in a variety of periodicals and anthologies.

Then followed "Inside Out & Back Again," a verse book that won a National Book Award and a Newbery Honor based in part on her youth as a refugee in Alabama. The following book was "Listen, Slowly," a middle grade fiction about a young Vietnamese-American girl.

It's a stark and honest tale that follows Hà as she leaves behind the only home she's ever known to journey to America by boat. Hà and her family struggle to find their footing in the United States, despite the fact that she has left the conflict behind. They're finally gaining their bearings towards the end of the year and as the book closes everyone clutching onto faith that things would get better.

The narrative takes place over the course of a year and is told in brief free-verse poems: As the Communists take over her hometown of Saigon in 1975, 10-year-old Ha and her family are forced to flee Vietnam. Ha's family arrives in Alabama with a sponsor family after covertly escaping by ship and residing in two temporary refugee camps.

They must learn a new language, attend school, look for jobs, establish friends, cope with bullying and mistrust  and figure out how to become American citizens. They must also say a final, symbolic goodbye to Ha's father, who has been missing in action for the past ten years.

Tenacity, courage, and intelligence are among Ha's characteristics in Inside Out and Back Again. She's also hesitant and frightened, which is understandable considering her family's situation.

Inside Out and Back Again's dilemma is that the Vietnam War was approaching Saigon, forcing them to flee to Alabama. Inside Out and Back Again begins with Ha arriving at her new school, unable to communicate with anybody and being ridiculed because she is different from everyone else.

Her migration to America brings with it a slew of new obstacles. All refugees confront obstacles such as bullying, prejudice, and a lack of language skills. Inside Out and Back Again is a storey about a refugee's common experience. These difficulties are depicted in Ha's narrative.

The great Gatsby figurative language chapter 1
irinina [24]

Answer:

Figurative language includes the use of figures of speech (metaphors, similes, allusions, etc.) to make the speech more effective and persuasive.

In Chapter 1 of <em>The Great Gatsby</em>, F. Scott Fitzgerald introduces the characters and the narrator, and establishes the setting. In doing so, he uses the following figures of speech:

  • Hyperbole (an exaggerated statement or claim)

Jordan, while lying on the couch, says to Tom: <em>"I'm stiff. I've been lying on that sofa for as long as I can remember. " </em>This is, of course, an exaggeration.

  • Metaphor (reference to one thing/concept by mentioning another)

<em>"My own house was an eyesore, but it was a small eyesore."</em> Nick refers to his house as an eyesore (an ugly sight in a public place).

  • Personification (giving human characteristics and traits to something that is not human)

<em>"The abnormal mind is quick to detect and attach itself to this quality when it appears in a normal person." </em>Nick, the narrator, personifies 'the mind', which detects certain qualities.

  • Simile (comparison of two things by mentioning the similarities between them, usually through the use of words 'like' or 'as')

<em> "Instead of being the warm center of the world, the Middle West now seemed like the ragged edge of the universe." </em>Nick is not satisfied with his home after the war, and compares it to "the ragged edge of the universe."
