Answer:

It creates a dramatic effect, with a strong influence of dramatic irony.

Explanation:

The fact that Fortunato does not have access to important information, which the reader has access to and which has to do with Fortunato's survival and malaise, gives the reader a strong effect of drama and suspense.

This is explained by the dramatic irony, where the reader knows something and understands that a situation is happening, but the character does not know.

<u>What would be the impact of replacing the word murdered in stanza 3 with the word drowned?</u>

D) The stanza would be more informative.

<u>Choice of words</u> can change a poem's tone and mood. A more <u>precise word </u>can give either more power to the stanza or more information. In the case of replacing <em>murdered</em> with <em>drowned</em>, the impact would be that the reader will be captivated and have more specific and significant details about the child's murder.

Can people only be complete once they embrace their ancestral culture explain why
k0ka [10]

Answer: Not exactly.

Explanation: No, I wouldn't say people are only complete when they're aware of their ancestral culture. Many people have no idea who their great great great grandma was, or even know she existed. I think a lot of people are focused on the now, and either don't have time, or just wouldn't like knowing. It is a very good thing to be proud of your culture, and where you've come from, but it is not a necessity. You don't need to embrace your culture, or race, to be confident and proud of who you are.

<em>Side note: If this wasn't what you met, I'm sorry for any inconvenience!</em>
