Which of the following best summarizes "The Land of Red Apples"?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

b) Zitkála-Šá traveled with several other children to a missionary school in the east. She was treated much differently at school than at her home, which caused her anxiety and pain. Her first night at the school, she cried herself to sleep, grieving the absence of her mother and aunt.

Explanation:

The arrival of Sa's at school was traumatic. All the kids got haircuts. Only enemy-captured cowards got haircuts in Dakota culture. Zitkala-Sa hid in a vacant room. The school personnel brought her out, strapped her to a chair, and chopped off her braids as she wailed. She later said that school employees didn't care about her sentiments and treated children like "little animals."

After a few years, Zitkala-Sa was allowed to visit her mother during school breaks. Her mother urged her to quit school during the visit. Later, she said, visiting home was sad. The teacher returned. She may have felt that she didn't belong on the reserve, like many children. School altered her.

Explanation:

A rhetorical question is a question that has no answer. It is usually used for dramatic effect.

Metaphor is a figure of speech that describes or compares two things in a way that is not literally applicable

Allusion is an indirect reference to someone or something

Parallel structure is using the same pattern of words to show that different ideas are equally important.

Dafna11 [192]
In my opinion, the correct answer would be D. <span>identifies with her Mexican heritage in a different way than her grandmother. Micaela is troubled with her ancestry precisely because she has to meet other people's expectations. This paragraph doesn't imply that she resents her Mexican roots - she just has her own way of processing things and doesn't want to be coerced into anything.</span>
