We had lunch: sandwiches, potato chips, and iced tea. Carolyn and her mother talked mostly about neighbors and the congregation

at the Japanese Methodist Church in West Fresno. Her father, who was in khaki work clothes, excused himself with a wave that was almost a salute and went outside. I heard a truck start, a dog bark, and the truck rattle away.
How does Soto build a central idea of his story in the excerpt?
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is strange to him, Soto supports the idea that culture causes conflict between people.
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is boring to him, Soto supports the idea that people from different cultures do not share interests.
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is familiar to him, Soto supports the idea that people from different cultures can also share a culture.
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is similar to him, Soto supports the idea that there are very few differences among cultures.

<span>By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is similar to him, Soto supports the idea that there are very few differences among cultures.

I believe this is correct, because there are many descriptive words in the passage. If Soto would have left these words out the reader would not know where the story takes place.

What is the core message of 'Epitaph on a Tyrant' by Auden? Use quotes and peel paragraph (360 words).
fredd [130]

Answer:

'Epitaph on a Tyrant', like many of Auden's poems of the 1930s, was inspired by the appalling events of that decade, but it also neatly encapsulates the qualities and behaviour of all tyrants, from Herod to Henry VIII to Hitler.

Rewrite the following passage, correcting any problems in subject/verb/antecedent agreement.
irina [24]

I think it is:

Sarah opened her drawer took out the new stationary set. Now that she has finished her chores, she can spend some time writing a letter to her friend Cade. Cade had just moved to a new city a few months ago, but Sarah felt as if he had been gone for a year. Fortunately, they both love writing letters. They even put their own creative touch, a sketch, at the bottom of each letter. They were determined that their friendship would last even if they were far away from each other.

Something like that. I hope this helps.
