Read the excerpt from Enrique’s Journey. He was five years old when his mother left him. Now he is almost another person. In the

window glass, he sees a battered young man, scrawny and disfigured. It angers him, and it steels his determination to push northward. Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars." Children from Central America have been making that journey, often without their parents, for two decades. But lately something has changed, and the predictable flow has turned into an exodus. Three years ago, about 6,800 children were detained by United States immigration authorities and placed in federal custody; this year, as many as 90,000 children are expected to be picked up.How do details from the excerpts support the author’s purpose?

A parallel that can be traced about the excerpt from Enrique's Journey that appears in the book Children of the Drug Wars by author Damon Barett and the information about migrating without the parents of Central America to North America is that the abandonment of these children by part of their parents or guardians is a great motivation for them not to return to their country of origin but to keep going north. The escape of a violent past and abandonment with the parents serves as an incentive for these children to travel to the north of the American continent

Ovid creates a tense situation, as Thisbe does not realize that <br> .
stepan [7]

Answer:

Ovid creates a tense situation as Thisbe does not realize that <em><u>Pyramus is dying</u></em>.

Explanation:

Ovid's "Pyramus and Thisbe" is a Babylonian love story that revolves around the two lovers, Pyramus and Thisbe. But the story turned tragic after Pyramus discovered a bloodied cloak that belonged to Thisbe and so killed himself.

In the given lines from the story, we can see Thisbe returning to meet Pyramus and tell him about the close escape she had with the lioness. Ovid creates a tense situation in this scene because we already know what Pyramus had done which Thisbe is not privy to.

So, Ovid creates a tense situation as Thisbe does not realize that her love Pyramus is dying.

Which genre uses techniques such as figurative language to explore
Anna007 [38]
Figurative language is most common in poetry, but poetry does not always explore thought in a concise way, more often it tried to convey a feeling or an impression than treats the subject in detail. 

Therefore I would choose a "novel" - it can use figurative language (unlike exploratory essay), but it also deals with ideas and thought is a profound, comprehensive way (but note that some poems will also do that!)
