Answer and Explanation:
<u>"The Wretched and the Beautiful", by E. Lily Yu develops the theme of how refugees are perceived and treated, but does so through an impactful metaphor - aliens.</u>
In the story, the extraterrestrials that first appear on a beach are received with violence. Humans are quick to attack them, seeing them as dangerous, unwelcomed visitors. Those aliens ask for refuge, which then leads humans to confusion. They do not wish to help, to get involved in someone else's problems.
A second group of aliens arrive and convinces the humans that the first group consists of criminals. Humans are more than relieved when they realize they are not the ones who will deal with those first aliens.
It is important to notice that the first aliens had an atrocious appearance, while the second group was beautiful. How come humans accepted what the beautiful ones said as the truth, but not what the ugly ones said? Our judgment is quick. We are scared of what is different, of what is foreign, of what is helpless. We like what is similar to us, what will not demand anything from us.

This has been a result of the continuous firing of cannons the city experienced which also kept the citizens awake. </span>

Answer:
Minor details, the characters, and the setting help the reader determine the central idea of the text. Minor details are little things you notice that may not seem important, but could be <em>foreshadows. </em>The characters are the people in the book. Based off of their personalities, the reader will sometimes be able to determine the central idea. Last but not least, the setting. The setting is the environment the story is mostly in(e.g stormy night, sunset, foggy town).
