Answer: No, I think deception is never necessary. I think that deception is just a trick to always get whatever you want, which is very wrong and selfish. The only time deception may be acceptable to me is when you are in a very important argument where you or a friend could be in harms way. A possible example of this is when you, or a friend is getting in trouble for something you did not do. Do everything you can, including deception, to get out of that situation.
Explanation:
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."

Explanation:
1 ) Alliteration - “Well, he seemed so low that I couldn't say no; then he says with a sort of moan"
The words in this line, from a quatrain from ‘The Cremation of Sam McGee’ by Robert W. Service, are examples of alliteration. Notice that when reading this line aloud you hear the repetitiveness of what saying the letter ‘o’ sounds like. The words that create this sound are ‘so,’ ‘low,’ and ‘moan.'

2 ) Assonance - “Till I came to the marge of Lake Lebarge, [...]"
The words ‘came,’ ‘marge,’ ‘lake,’ and ‘Lebarge’ all consist of the same vowel sound that is ‘a.’ Another example is in the line that states “In the long, long night, [...].” Both the words ‘long’ and ‘long,’ consist of the ‘o’ vowel.'
