Which sentence best explains how the structure of the excerpt supports the authors purpose?

Answers

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.

d. it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.

Read the poem "Travel" by Edna St. Vincent Millay.


The railroad track is miles away,
And the day is loud with voices speaking,
Yet there isn't a train goes by all day
But I hear its whistle shrieking.
All night there isn't a train goes by,
Though the night is still for sleep and dreaming,
But I see its cinders red on the sky,
And hear its engine steaming.
My heart is warm with friends I make,
And better friends I'll not be knowing;
Yet there isn't a train I wouldn't take,
No matter where it's going.

The narrator is frustrated by the noise of travelers.

The narrator has fond memories of her travels.

Answer:

The narrator is preoccupied by a desire to travel.

Explanation:

In the poem "Travel," by Edna St. Vincent Millay, the speaker expresses an intense yearning for traveling. In fact, she is so obsessed and absorted in her dreams and eagerness about traveling, that during the day she can hear the whistle of a train. Besides, at night she cannot sleep but sees the train's "ciders red on the sky" and hears the sound of a steaming engine. Thus, she has a fascination with traveling, since she would take any train and go anywhere, and she believes she would make the best of friends.

Which statement about a memoir's narrator is true?
The narrator only appears in works of fiction.
The narrator is the person telling the story.
The narrator is the author of the memoir.
The narrator tells the author's story.

Answers

The correct answer is B. The narrator is the person telling the story.

Explanation:

In literature, the narrator is always the person or character telling the story, this concept is closely related to the point of view because a story can be told in the first person, second person, or third person. The concept of the narrator also applies to memoirs that focus on describing personal experiences of the author or experiences he/she witnessed. This is because even when the content of the memoir is the experiences of the author the narrator or person telling the story can be different. Thus, the statement about a memoir's narrator that is true is "The narrator is the person telling the story".

Can someone plz tell me if i am correct before i submit it

Answers

The correct answers are 1. The weather is warm and sunny, and 2. My mother and I shop for warm clothes in winter

Explanation:

As it is indicated in the chart for a sentence to be correct it requires the subject and verb to agree in number, which is known as subject-verb agreement. This means both the subject (agent of the action) and verb (action) need to be either plural or singular.

In the case of the sentence "The weather are warm and sunny" the subject "the weather" is singular, and therefore the verb form should be singular. According to this, it is completely correct to replace "are" by "is" which is the singular verb form of the verb to be. On the other hand, in "My mother and I shops for warm clothes in winter" the verb "shops" should be replaced by "shop" because "My mother and I" is a plural subject, and therefore it is incorrect to use "shops", which is singular.
