English

Answer:

She is sad because the narrator's return means that the moment has come when she will need to leave the house where she lived for many years and has many memories.

Explanation:

"My Old Home," shows the moment when the narrator returns to his hometown, after 20 years, to help his family move to another home. The house where the narrator grew up is no longer of the same quality and needs to be abandoned. The narrator feels strange when reviewing the house, because he no longer has the emotional attachment to this place and does not feel that this is his house. He realizes that his mother is also a little sad, probably because she lived in this house for many years and leaving for another house, causes her to leave many precious memories behind.

This novel is one of the first feminist novels, because it was empowering women. There have been several other feminist novels, but this is the very first one.

Kate Chopin wrote the awakening to empower feminism and women, as they are often designated as the weaker gender. I believe that it shows the stronger side of females, and that they are as strong as men are.

I haven't read the book, so I went off of what i could. I hope this helps, you can re-word it if you'd like.

In the poem "Cloudy Days", what purpose does the flashback serve?
mrs_skeptik [129]

"Cloudy Day" by Jimmy Santiago Baca is to show how there can always be sunshine on a cloudy day. Meaning that no matter how bad things are, it could possibly b worse, so we should always be optimistic.

The purpose of the flashback is to show how the speaker has changed from the start of his prison time to the end.

As shown in this excerpt from the story, " ...the wind in my face gave me the feeling I could grasp the tower like a cornstalk..." (Lines 15 & 16) This quote shows that even though he was in the prison he still felt powerful.

Which option corrects the double negative, yet has the same meaning as the following sentence? Since there is so much food here,
soldi70 [24.7K]
A. Since there is so much food here we can find something to eat.

All of the other sentences do NOT make sense when you read them in deeper context. A double negative is incorrect grammar! Double negatives are things like "not never" or "can't cannot." The meaning of this sentence is saying that there is lots of food so it will be easy to find something to eat. The only answer that reflects that meaning is A.

Hope this helps! If someone else answers I would love brainliest:)
