I could not find the excerpt that is missing in our question but I will tell you something about mood in literature so you can compare the mood with the given image.
- The mood is a big part in literature and we can find it in every genre. It is there to evoke feelings in readers so they can follow the idea of the story. Emotional setting that is surrounding the readers is important because in that way it can direct them into the right path of the story. <u>The speaker or the author is giving us the mood of the story by description of the situation or the character. </u>
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read this excerpt from james baldwin's "notes of a native son":the day of my father's funeral had also been my nineteenth birthday. as we drove him to the graveyard, the spoils of injustice, anarchy, discontent, and hatred were all around us. it seemed to me that god himself had devised, to mark my father's end, the most sustained and brutally dissonant of codas. and it seemed to me, too, that the violence which rose all about us as my father left the world had been devised as a corrective for the pride of his eldest son.which sentence best explains how the structure of the excerpt supports the author's purpose?
a.it ties baldwin's father's funeral to his birthday and shows that the author is angry that his father died on that day. b.it compares a term signifying the end of a musical piece with his father's death to illustrate the finality of death. c.it contrasts the somber mood of a funeral procession with the happy memories baldwin has about his father. d.it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Answer:
d. it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Explanation:
The text above was taken from the autobiography of a black author, who wanted to show the violence, intolerance and injustices that racism caused in a society. He presents these themes well in the excerpt shown above, where the structure allows the author to interweave elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hate is destructive and how it shook his family and transformed a moment of celebration into a moment of mourning.
Answer:
Gangs are a problem plaguing our nation. While trends show a steady decrease from the past, gangs are still prevalent in many communities throughout the U.S. Unfortunately, many gangs lure susceptible youth into their ranks leading them down a path of criminal activity, drugs and ultimately destruction. As a society what can we do to help deter these vulnerable youth from becoming involved in gang activity? To answer this question, and many more, I turned to an expert in gang involvement and detective for an urban police department. Due to the nature of his job, he requested that his identity remain anonymous. Join us as we delve into this two part series Gangs: Protecting Today's Youth.
