<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

The prose is a type of writing that is distinguished from poetry because of the greater variation in rhythm it has, and the language that is more in line with its lexical meaning. This type of prose writing is usually used to describe a fact or idea. Therefore, prose can be used for newspapers, magazines, novels, encyclopedias, letters, and various other types of media. Prosa is also divided into two parts, namely the old prose and the new prose, the old prose is the prose of Indonesian language that has not been influenced by western culture, and new prose is free-written prose without any rules.

Old prose is a literary work that has not been influenced by Western literature or culture. Old prose literary works that first emerged were delivered orally, due to unfamiliar forms of writing. The old prose literary forms are:

  • Saga
  • History

New York is a nice place, but for some, more risks are shown to them. Young boys, children, from rough backgrounds, face a danger that others don’t. Boys face the risk of becoming something worse in a place that is supposed to make them better, facing bigger problems in the prejudice world. If these boys are to take a risk, or even a chance, they have all the odds against them. Because of not who they are, but of what they are seen as. Making these young boys, boys that did nothing, are made into what they are seen as. This is what Rios is saying about the lives of young boys in New York.

7. What is the party's policy on marriage and family?
Softa [21]

Answer:Love and marriage are extremely important to the Party, in a negative sense. In other words, they see love and the sort of marriage based on love as inherently subversive forces and attempt to regulate them and suppress them. They want the full force of people's emotions directed in ways that directly benefit the Party, first as love for Big Brother and second as rage and hatred directed against opponents of the Party.
