"mirror"

Consider the last two lines of the poem again. Why do you think the old woman sees herself as a terrible fish? Why did she choose to compare her to a fish? Why do you think she chose to use the word "terrible"? Write your answer in two hundred words.

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

In the poem, we note an interesting detail in the last two lines as to why the old woman sees herself as a "terrible fish". The line says,

"In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman / Rises toward her day after day, like a terrible fish."

The woman uses such expressions above to show that with the passage of time, her youthfulness like a drowning fish has passed away, bringing old age.

By comparing herself to a fish, she symbolizes her aging self to a fish on land seeking survival after it is taken from its natural habitat.

By using the expression "terrible" she depicts her hopeless condition as regards becoming young again, just as a fish taken from water enters a terrible situation.

Answer 2

Answer:

see below (just to give you an idea... its not 200 words)

Explanation:

she sees herself as a terrible fish because she feels alone ugly and unloved, and she uses the word terrible because she wants to be young and to feel young again and she feels like she wont ever be able to feel like that again

Choose the quote that has to do with the theme "loss of innocence" from HOMS

Answers

Answer:

C. "You get to wear nice clothes and might meet someone who will marry you and take you away to live in a big house far away"

Explanation:

The above quote is the quote that has to do with the theme "loss of innocence" from The House On Mango Street.

The above statement was made by Marin, a young woman from Puerto Rico. She lives with the family of her cousin. Marin stays at home baby-sitting and sells makeup for Avon. Marin actually teaches Esperanza and her friends about the world of boys.

"Loss of innocence" is known to be a common theme in fiction, realism, etc. It is seen as the experiences or periods in one's life which results in an awareness of what is wrong, suffering and/or pain. This theme is seen as an integral part of coming of age.

The above quote shows "loss of innocence" which reveals that one can actually try to dress well and look nice in order to attract someone to marry and live with in a big house. This is part of what Marin was teaching Esperanza. She is trying to create an awareness of what girls can do to attract someone to marry in order to live in a big house.

2. Billy Jo was in a bad state of mind because;

a. She had lost her mother and her unborn sibling in the home accident

b. Her father was consumed in mourning that he neglected her.

1. Billy Jo was as sad as night. Just as night is most times marked with uncertainties, dangerous events, and a foreboding of gloom, so did Billy Jo feel after the awful accident that took her mother's life.

Explanation:

In the story, 'Out of the dust', we learn of 14-year-old Billy Jo Kelby who lived happily with her parents in their home in the Dust Bowl. An awful accident occurred in their kitchen when Billy's mother wanted to put off the stove but unfortunately uses the pail of kerosene which her husband put by the stove, mistaking it for water. Fire guts the house but she manages to escape.

However, that was not to be the end of the matter as Billy threw the pail of kerosene out of the house and it, unfortunately, hit her mother who was now gutted in the fire. Billy Jo's pregnant mother died from the incident and that made her very sad.

Read the excerpt from "The Lady, or the Tiger?" This semi-barbaric king had a daughter as blooming as his most florid fancies, and with a soul as fervent and imperious as his own. As is usual in such cases, she was the apple of his eye, and was loved by him above all humanity. What is the purpose of the descriptive language in this excerpt? It explains how the king's daughter feels about the young man. It details how the king feels about his daughter. It makes the point that the young man is guilty. It helps the reader understand details about the love story.

Bryan is writing a research paper on women in the military. At the library, he checks out a book entitled You're in the Army Now: The History of Women in the Armed Forces. The book is written by Professor Jack Taylor, a military expert who teaches history at Boston University. It was published in 2010. Bryan also interviews U.S. Air Force Major Barbara Wilson, whom Bryan has know for many years. What is one way for Bryan to decide which source is more credible? A. Major Wilson is more credible because she is Bryan's friend. B. The book was written by a professor, so it is more credible. C. Both sources would be beneficial to Bryan's research paper. D. The book Bryan found is very current, so it is more credible.

Answers

Answer:

It seems that C. Both sources would be beneficial to Bryan's research paper.

Explanation:

Bryan has, in a sense, gotten the best of two worlds. With the book as a source, he has credible information and evidence coming from an expert in the area. Professor jack Taylor has certainly done extensive research and followed academic rules in order to publish his book. Therefore, we can see it as a most valuable source.

On the other hand, with Major Barbara Wilson's interview, Bryan is getting a first-hand account by a woman who is currently serving. She can offer him insights concerning her own and other women's experiences, challenges, feelings, etc. that he may not obtain from the book. This is a less academic source, so to speak, but a more direct one. This source, too, is valuable.

Thus, we can see the both sources would be beneficial to his research paper.

Read the excerpt from “How I Learned English.”

Someone said “shin” again,
There was a wild stamping of hands on the ground,
A kicking of feet, and the fit
Of laughter overtook me too,
And that was important, as important
As Joe Barone asking me how I was
Through his tears, picking me up
And dusting me off with hands like swatters,
And though my head felt heavy,
I played on till dusk
Missing flies and pop-ups and grounders
And calling out in desperation things like
“Yours” and “take it,” but doing all right,
Tugging at my cap in just the right way,
Crouching low, my feet set.
“Hum baby” sweetly on my lips.

How do things change for the speaker after he laughs with the other boys?

He tries harder to impress others.
He finally has a sense of belonging.
He no longer cares about fitting in.
He no longer avoids playing baseball. 30 points
