Answer:
True
Explanation:
Foreshadowing helps the reader develop expectations about the upcoming events.
Anecdotes, passages, or examples are given as evidence to support a point.
In Things Fall Apart, the arrival of the missionaries best illustrate the struggle between tradition and change.
While many resist the changes the missionaries bring, many like them. The missionaries bring new goods to the village and export village goods, bringing money into the village. This trade, however, has its drawbacks. Meanwhile, conversation between village elders and Mr. Brown allows them to understand one another. Mr. Brown tries to encourage the elders to educate their children, explaining this will bring hope for their futures.
Although many welcome these changes, others -- including Okonkwo -- are resistant. He and a few others do not like this change and even openly resist it. They value their traditions and do not want them altered.
Therefore, of the many themes in the novel, the one represented by the arrival of the missionaries is "the struggle between tradition and change."
Answer:
to expose the conflict between the two feuding families
Explanation:
The play begins with the two families showcasing their feud for each other. It starts with the servants of the Capulets seeing the servants of the Montagues approaching and deciding to start a quarrel with them because their masters were quarrelling with each other.
This establishes that there was a conflict between the two families. It was also a foreboding of the tragedy that was to occur in the later part of the drama.
