Answer:

B.) They employ figurative language.

Explanation:

Note, the word figurative language basically refers to the used of words to communicate in a way that what is said or written does not follow a regular (literal; simple) meaning rather is to be understood in a more complex or unique (symbolic) way.

In the first excerpt, the use of the phrase <em>"he took the tortillas out of his poetry"</em> is to be understood symbolically. Similarly, in the second excerpt, the expression <em>"the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head," </em>the reader observes a personification of the object, 'tree', this is a good example where figurative language can be observed.

What is the summary of the coyote and the buffalo by morning dove?
xenn [34]

Answer:

Coyote and the Buffalo is a Native American Legend that explains why there is no buffalo in Swah-netk'-qhu.

Explanation:

The story begins by telling how Coyote was to blame for the absence of buffalo in Swah-netk'-qhu country.

Coyote had always been afraid of Buffalo Bull, and while he was walking over the plains beyond the big mountains, he found the skull of his great enemy and decided to make fun of him. He threw it into the air, kicked it and spat on it, and it went on his way.

After that, Buffalo Bull came back to life and wanted to kill Coyote. But they reached an agreement, where Coyote would make him new horns so that Buffalo Bull could take revenge on Young Buffalo for killing him and keeping his herd, his former wives and their children.

Coyote makes magnificent horns for Buffalo Bull, who manages to kill Young Buffalo and recover what was his. He was so grateful that he decided to give Coyote a cow, with which he would be able to feed himself all his life, but he was forbidden to kill her.

He said <em>“When you get hungry, just slice off some choice fat with a flint knife. Then rub ashes on the wound and the cut will heal at once. ”</em>, But after a while Coyote got tired of always eating the same parts and killed the cow.

When he ran out of food he decided to see Buffalo Bull again to ask for a new cow, and when he arrived he was surprised to see the cow he killed was alive! But she refused to return with him, and Buffalo Bull did not want to give him another. That is the reason why Coyote's vanity, made him return without any buffalo home.
