Read the excerpt from "In Response to Executive Order 9066. " I’ve packed my galoshes and three packets of tomato seeds. Denis

e calls them love apples. My father says where we’re going they won’t grow. Read the excerpt from "Mericans. " She’s so busy taking Junior’s picture, she doesn’t notice me and Keeks. "Hey, Michele, Keeks. You guys want gum?" "But you speak English!" "Yeah," my brother says, "we’re Mericans. " Which of the statements best describes both excerpts? Okita uses the tomato, a food native to the Americas, to highlight the speaker’s American identity, while Cisneros uses the English language to give her characters an American identity. The writers use bleak imagery to convey the sense of isolation they feel from their respective cultures. The speaker of Okita’s poem feels a sense of loss at the prospect of being moved from her home, while the speaker of Cisneros’s short story longs to leave her current location and return to America. The American identity of both speakers is highly questionable, as they frequently refer to their foreign identities.

The statements that best describe both excerpts are: Okita uses the tomato, a food native to the Americas, to highlight the speaker's American identity, while Cisneros uses the English language to give her characters an American identity.

In these two excerpts, we find that the native tomatoes established the American identity.

This is found in the fact that the speaker's father said that the soil in the new place they were going to will not support the growth of the love apples.

In the second excerpt, the speaker explicitly mentions that he speaks English. This identifies him.

So, option A shows how the two excerpts reveal the identities of the characters.

a) Gareth Hinds's choices in panels 11 and 12 of his <em>"Beowulf" Illustrated</em> shows that Hinds was proud of the Hero-type, Beowulf and that there was no love lost between Beowulf and his opponents.

  • The somber hues that he utilized to cast the epic warrior's heroism and selfless leadership show that Hinds uses this panel-illustrated version of the poem to demonstrate how a leader should be courageous even in the midst of difficulties.

b) Hinds' interpretation of the poem is valid.  He retold the story with glorious details, rendering the heroic saga of Beowulf for young and modern readers to completely grasp the underlying messages.  The strength of character of Beowulf is especially retold with graphic panels instead of words.

Thus, Hinds' adaptation of the poem is so interestingly graphic that modern readers can appreciate all the details of Homer's Beowulf by reviewing the illustrated version.

Which sentence best shows a strong thesis statement?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

I'd imagine the correct answer is<em> the third one</em>, "The story illustrates that growing up can be a painful experience".

Explanation:

Well, numbers 2 and 4 just explain the story's setting, they don't really demonstrate the story's main theme or lesson. Number 1 is, like, super vague as well. Like, it could be describing a million different stories. Number 3, however, <u>displays the story's main theme</u> and has a statement that <u>can be backed up with evidence</u> from that story. So, the sentence that best shows a strong thesis statement is the third statement.

In at least one hundred words, how does Kabir express his belief in God in this excerpt from “Tell me, O Swan, your ancient tale
Vlada [557]

The swan is a metaphor of our soul, which is timeless and ancient. The speaker wants to know where the swan is going, what is wants and what is the purpose of life. He requests our soul to go with him in knowing that God is us and the answer to “Who Am I” which was written on the wind of God’s impulse to realize Himself that blew over His being in creation’s beginning. And to attach to God deliberately on the way to know Him is the joy of loving God, similar as a bee that will cultivate and finish our sorrows by ending desire. With that connection, there’s no doubt regarding God and that forever exists.
