Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read this excerpt from james baldwin's "notes of a native son":the day of my father's funeral had also been my nineteenth birthday. as we drove him to the graveyard, the spoils of injustice, anarchy, discontent, and hatred were all around us. it seemed to me that god himself had devised, to mark my father's end, the most sustained and brutally dissonant of codas. and it seemed to me, too, that the violence which rose all about us as my father left the world had been devised as a corrective for the pride of his eldest son.which sentence best explains how the structure of the excerpt supports the author's purpose?
a.it ties baldwin's father's funeral to his birthday and shows that the author is angry that his father died on that day. b.it compares a term signifying the end of a musical piece with his father's death to illustrate the finality of death. c.it contrasts the somber mood of a funeral procession with the happy memories baldwin has about his father. d.it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Answer:
d. it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Explanation:
The text above was taken from the autobiography of a black author, who wanted to show the violence, intolerance and injustices that racism caused in a society. He presents these themes well in the excerpt shown above, where the structure allows the author to interweave elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hate is destructive and how it shook his family and transformed a moment of celebration into a moment of mourning.
From what I can understand, this question is asking for what would describe the phrase "how many". In that case, the answers would be C and D, as they're both describing how many of whatever there is.
"There are four cats in that box."
Good Luck!
<u>Answer</u>:
After reading the following summary, it can be concluded about Jane's feelings that Jane felt unhappy and frustrated in school.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Charlotte Bronte’s “Jane Eyre,” talks about a girl named Jane who values self-worth and dignity, has a commitment to justice and principle and trusts in God. She became an orphan at an early age which made her feel as if she was exiled and the cruel treatment that she received from her aunt and cousins pushed her to the feeling of being alienated.
She faced the same when sent to a school which triggered her intense need of freedom and autonomy. Throughout the novel she struggles as to what kind of freedom she wants and it seems that she’s trying to come to terms with the elements of her own life. Jane also voices her opinions on social class, religion and gender of that period.
