Presently I saw a man leaning on a two-strand barbed-wire fence, the wires fixed not to posts but to crooked tree limbs stuck in the ground. The man wore a dark hat, and jeans and long jacket washed palest blue with lighter places at knees and elbows. His pale eyes were frosted with sun glare and his lips scaly as snakeskin.

What is the purpose of the description in this passage from Travels with Charley?

to show his fear of the man
to show that people in the Bad Lands are dangerous
to show the similarity between the man and the place

Liisi's New Home

In the days since she and her family had sailed away from Germany and the refugee camp, Liisi had spent many hours staring out at the ocean waves from the deck. Somehow, in the back of her mind, she had always believed they would return home to Estonia after the war. Yet, every time she had mentioned this to her parents, they just frowned and changed the subject. After they had escaped the Russians and fled to Germany, there had been no real home for them except the cramped apartment in the little German town of Geislingen where the U.S. Army housed Estonian refugees. Liisi had made good friends there—her Girl Scout troop of five had been inseparable—but now they were all scattered to the winds. Two of the girls had stayed in Germany, and the other two were going to Canada. Here she was all alone sailing to America.
Feeling mighty lonely, Liisi reached into the inside pocket of her coat and pulled out a photograph. On it was her Girl Scout troop, all dressed in traditional Estonian costumes for a dance they had organized at the refugee camp. The dress Liisi wore was too small, as she had worn it back in Tallinn when she was younger. Liisi ran her thumb over the image of herself and closed her eyes as she remembered.
"Liisi, hold still while I button your dress!" Her mother scolded.
But Liisi was so eager to join the other kids in Tallinn's town square, she could not stop moving. At 10, she was just old enough to join in the folk dances as the city celebrated Jaanipäev—John's Day, or Midsummer's Eve. The June 23 festival always made her giddy with delight, and as her mother finally released her, she gave her a swift hug and flew out the door.
The square was just a few blocks away, and Liisi could hear the cheers of the crowd as she raced down the cobblestone streets. As she rounded the last corner and entered the square, the dancing had already begun. She was so glad she had paid attention when her mom taught her the traditional steps. Making her way to the front of the crowd, Liisi's school friends waved to her. She caught up to them just as the band started playing, and they arranged themselves in a line for the next dance. At that moment, Liisi could not imagine ever living anywhere else.
The wind had picked up, and the ocean spray woke Liisi from her reverie. A tear had made its way down her cheek, and she wiped it away before replacing the photo in her pocket.
"That was then," she told herself sternly and pushed those other thoughts away. Then, she turned her back to the ocean as if to leave her entire past behind her and went to find her parents.
How does Liisi's cultural background affect her perception of the photograph?
A.
She values maintaining traditions in order to understand Estonian history.
B.
She associates Estonian traditions with a sense of community.
C.
She realizes the difficulty of preserving Estonian traditions in different locations.
D.
She appreciates her Estonian friends for more easily understanding her experiences.

It helps readers understand that the main character is beginning to feel accepted. It helps readers identify better with Joe Barone's opinion of the main character. It helps readers identify the events that occur during the story's climax and falling action.

Answers

Answer:

It helps readers understand that the main character is beginning to feel accepted.

Explanation:

Gregory Djanikian's narrative poem "How I Learned English" is a short poem that described how the speaker first came to America and felt like an outsider. The poem deals with themes of isolation, learning through his mistakes, and how he eventually feel a sense of belonging in the new country.

The first person point of view is when the speaker is a character within the story. he/ she is involved in the events of the story and also presents the readers the window through which we view the story. And in this narrative poem, the first person point of view helps us understand how the speaker begins to feel accepted by others, though at the cost of his wrongful use of English. Before the ball hit him, he felt no connection whatsoever with the game or his teammates. But after the ball hit him on the forehead, and he exclaimed "oh my shin, oh my shin", the laughter that erupted from the scene helped ease the situation and also made him feel more comfortable around the others.

Which phrase best describes how Julius Caesar is represented in the statue?

Answers

"Portrays Ceasar as honored."

Hello! I had this question on Edmentum. My score for this Mastery Test was an 80. Although I can be wrong, I think I can still help you with this question.

First of all, I eliminated the two answer choices that started with the word "emphasizes" because the word empathize is usually used to describe texts. When people describe a statue (or art in general), they usually use the word "portrays."

After that, I just had to decide between:

Portrays Ceasar as brutal.Portrays Ceasar as honored.

The statue wasn't showing that Julius Ceasar was brutal so I chose the answer choice "Portrays Ceasar as honored."

Again, the answer might be correct or incorrect since I could not verify it. I hope it helped though. Have a nice day.

Explanation: I was researching the piece and its meaning. It includes humor and describes the generation gap between a veteran/ an experienced person and his supercilious, arrogant, pompous and haughty son. If you read the 3rd line it states, "Yet you balanced an eel on the end of your nose" it uses a humorous tone.

The subject of the excerpt "You are Old, Father William" by Lewis Carroll is the age difference. Therefore, option C is correct.

What is known as the subject of an excerpt?

The subject of an excerpt refers to the main topic or idea that is being discussed or presented in the text. It is the central theme or focus of the excerpt, and it is what the author is attempting to communicate to the reader.

The subject of an excerpt can be explicit or implicit, depending on how the author presents it. In some cases, the subject may be clearly stated in the text, while in others, the reader may need to infer the subject based on the context and the author's tone and language.

Thus, the subject of the excerpt is the age difference. Therefore, option C is correct.
