Answer:

B. It emphasizes the idea that colorism in the Dominican Republic has serious and violent consequences.

Explanation:

In the text "Behind Closed Doors: 'Colorism' in The Caribbean", Michel martin discusses the issue of colorism in the Dominican Republic with Frances Robles. This is based on the research of Robles' pertaining to the issue of one's color in the Caribbean nation.

Recollecting the one instance where a young girl was killed at a disco because she brought men who got into a scuffle with the bouncers who refused to admit them. This event was because of the 'color' of the men who seemed more black than usual, despite the 'open declaration' of the people about being a <em>"racially open and mixed society".</em> The inclusion of this story shows how the people in the Dominican Republic are in denial of their 'racist' attitude of colorism.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

In which essay does Thoreau make more elaborate use of metaphor?
Klio2033 [76]

The essay by Henry David Thoreau in which he makes more elaborate use of metaphor is "Walden, or, Life in the Woods" (1854).

In this essay, Thoreau uses more elaborate metaphor to convey the ideas of nonindividuality and to show how the human mind is easily influenced as the Earth's soil is marked by the steps of others.

The way in which he describes and metaphorizes nature and human existance in the space of Walden Pond contributes to adapt complex and abstract ideas of humanistic guidance into understandable language.

Artist 52 [7]
Color was taken out of their world. That is relevant since only the giver actually knew what color was. The society they lived in was very protected and under strict rule so they were not allowed to have color. When Jonas discovers color he is like why don't we have color. He believes that everyone should have color and they should know feelings instead of just feeling like a robot. You can only describe color to a point.
