The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include the question. Here we just have a series of statements or an excerpt of a text. But you forgot to include the question. We do not know what you are asking for.

However, trying to help, we can comment on the following.

Thi excerpt of the story "Civil Peace," written by Chinua Achebe in 1971, describes the terror the family felt after the dark moments of the Nigerian Civil War that was fought from 1967 to 1970.  Jonathan Iwegbu, the main character of the novel, got back to his former city and realized it was not as affected as other regions due to the war. So he takes his family back to repair his home. One night, robbers enter his home and take all of his money. Jonathan thinks that the robbery was a sign of God.

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The Wakatsuki's family fishing boat is going out to sea. All of a sudden, it turns around and comes back to the island. They hear that Pearl Harbor has been bombed. Papa decides to burn the Japanese flag and any papers that he has that connects him with Japan. He is then arrested for allegedly delivering oil to Japanese submarines. He is gone for a year.

Explanation:

This is about prewar American life and it foreshadows the suddenness of the attack on Pearl Harbor and how the US entered into WW2. The father is living a life like the "american dream". Something interesting that this story points out is how so many americans were not even familiar with Pearl Harbor before it was bombed. Papa is accused of spying and betrayal again his country.

After doing a close reading, why should you analyze the figurative language in a text?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

After doing a close reading, you should analyze the figurative language in a text for the following reason:

b. to reveal hidden meanings.

Explanation:

If a reader relies only on what is denotative, that is, on what is on the surface, he or she will certainly be missing out on a lot of messages that can only be perceived and understood with an open mind and thorough eyes which also attain to what is connotative, that is, to what is between the lines and goes way beyond the core meaning of words.

In Voltaire's "Candide", the main character starts to lead a farmer's life and his friend Pangloss suggests they are living in the best of possible worlds, to which Candide responds with the classic line:

“That is very well put . . . but we must cultivate our garden.”

The author is certainly not literally talking about a garden; he is rather symbolically referring to something that is much more profound and meaningful and lies within the very essence of mankind. Therefore, there is indeed a hidden meaning in those words, and it must be analyzed and interpreted so the reader can better profit from the text.
