1. [of pears] was
2. [above the stage] work
3. [in the bleachers] is yelling
4. [near the shore] were damaged

Prepositional phrases specify a place or a kind of something. A prepositional phrase refers to any set of Preposition + Object or Preposition + Article (the, a, an) + Object that acts like a preposition. When choosing the correct form of the verb, refer back to the Subject of the sentence (in this case, Box, Lights, Fan, Buildings) to determine wether to use a singular or plural verb.

Hope this helps!

Reread the lines, "Trying to find ways to erase them out of our skin, / iron them out of our hair, this wild tangle of hair that
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The speaker's ancestors.

The speaker's curls.

Explanation:

Elizabeth Acevedo's poem "Hair" is a powerful poem that delves into the issue of self acceptance and identity. In this poem, the writer narrates how the hair became a piece of personal identity that sets the Latinas apart and how they are expected to try to be like normal people, meaning the white people.

In the given lines, the speaker reveals how they, the speaker and her ancestors, tried hard to find ways to "straighten" their curls and be more like the white people. She also strongly points out the fact that while her ancestors<em> "call[ed] them wild curls, [I] call them breathing"</em>, showing her acceptance of who she really is and letter her natural hair be as it is.

Thus, the "them" in the given lines refer to the ancestors as well as her curls.

Select the correct answer. What is the main reason you should know the meaning of every word in a short story as opposed to a no
3241004551 [841]

The correct answer is C.

One characteristic of short stories is the great amount of symbolism that can be found in them.

Since novels do not have a word limit, the author can spend paragraphs or even full chapters describing settings and characters' personalities, looks and pasts. These may include a variety of words that we may not actually know but can infer from context.

While novels <em>may </em>have a symbolic meaning, it is much more difficult to analyse them in such a long story.

On the other hand, the briefness of short stories allow them to include a great amount of symbolism that can be much more easily analysed.

But to understand them, it is necessary to understand the meaning of each word, since they may be key to figure out a symbol within the story.
