In the passage, Cisneros introduces the belief that American culture has not really included the Mexican American experience by showing that the books she read about houses did not reflect her experience. This can be found in paragraph (4) where she talks about reading books written from the perspective of people who owned their own houses and had roomy, comforting, and safe homes, which were different from her own experiences as a working-class Mexican American. She mentions houses owned by Nabokov in Russia and Baroness Blixen in Africa and how these books were not representative of her own life. Therefore, the correct answer is D. by showing that the books she read about houses did not reflect her experience.

The excerpt that best shows that Sandra Cisneros hopes her book will bridge a cultural divide is option B: "If you can recognize yourself in the person most unlike you in literature, then the book will have done its work." This excerpt, from paragraph 13, highlights Cisneros' belief that reading her book can help humanize people and foster empathy and understanding between different cultures and communities. By seeing themselves in characters or situations that may be unfamiliar or different, readers can gain new perspectives and expand their empathy towards others. This reflects Cisneros' intention to bridge the cultural divide and encourage compassion and recognition of shared humanity.

The sentence that best reflects the idea that Sandra Cisneros wanted to be a voice of the Mexican American experience is:

(7) But Mexican women are very strong women, and the opposite side of sadness is rage. It took me only a weekend to get to the opposite side of my sadness. Why had I never seen literature written about my community with love and honesty? Why have I never seen my house in newspapers or magazines or in ads or cinema? It's never been portrayed. My community has never been portrayed with honesty. So I got angry. This is a wonderful thing you can do with rage if you know how to transform it: You can either light up Las Vegas, or you can create a Chernobyl. I had been wanting to create Chernobyl all weekend. Then I realized I'm going to stay here and write that book I haven't seen. I wrote The House on Mango Street on the side for no credit, while I was in poetry workshop, to keep my spirit alive.

In this passage, Sandra Cisneros expresses her frustration about the lack of literature that accurately represents her Mexican American community. She emphasizes the absence of honest portrayals of her community in various forms of media like newspapers, magazines, ads, and cinema. Feeling angry about this lack of representation, she decides to write the book she hasn't seen, which eventually becomes "The House on Mango Street." She wanted to capture the authentic experiences and voices of Mexican Americans in her writing, making her a strong advocate for representing her community in literature.

The sentence that best creates an image of Sandra Cisneros' big moment of revelation is:

B. "'Oh my God, I'm in my class here and I'm wearing my pajamas.'" (paragraph 5)

This sentence conveys the shock and embarrassment Cisneros felt when she realized that she didn't belong and didn't have a house like the others in her class. The image of wearing pajamas symbolizes her vulnerability and sense of not fitting in or being accepted. It represents her realization of the class difference and the absence of representation of her own community in literature and media. It was a significant moment that sparked her determination to write The House on Mango Street and tell her own story.

The central idea of this passage is:

A. Diverse representation in stories can lead to compassionate individuals.

The passage discusses how Sandra Cisneros, through her book "The House on Mango Street," aimed to provide representation and share stories of her community that were not commonly found in literature.

Answer: B. the uncontrollable power of nature.

In this passage, we can see how powerful the colossal Moby-Dick is, and how frail and insignificant humans appear to be by comparison. When Ahab wants to fight with the whale, he is completely helpless and is easily defeated and injured. The power of the whale is a symbol that represents the incontrollable power of nature.

Answer:

There is gradual shift of point of view in the story “An Occurrence
at Owl Creek Bridge”.

Step-by-step explanation:

●''Owl Creek Bridge'' isn't a first-person narration, meaning that it's not told from the perspective of the main character, meaning Farquhar. Instead, the text comes from a third-person narrator, or told by an external force or character.

●In some sense, Bierce presents readers with an unreliable third-person narrator. The narrator knows, the entire time, that Peyton is dreaming, but tricks readers into thinking that Peyton has escaped. By representing the scenes of Peyton's dream as reality, the narrator toys with the reader's emotions.

●In “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” a couple of shifts throughout the story change the entire story's point of view essentially bewildering readers. For instance, in paragraph five, a shift occurs when Peyton Farquhar closes his eyes right before he is to be hung.

●In paragraph 36 of "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge," Bierce shifts from past tense to present tense. Bierce writes that "now he sees another scene . . . he stands at the gate of his own home." The effect here is that the reader believes Farquhar has truly escaped and made it home.

Answer:

In lines 578-579, Mrs. Keeney tells her husband why she wanted to sail with him: "I wanted to see
you the hero they make you out to be in Homeport." In what way does the voyage change the way she sees her husband? Cite evidence from the play in your answer.
Mrs. Keeney sees that her husband is a hard man who can be brutal toward his crew in pursuit of
his goal. In lines 650-653, she tells him, "You want to live up to your silly reputation even if you do
have to beat and starve men and drive me mad to do it."
At the end of the play, Captain Keeney breaks his promise to his wife, even though he says he loves
her. What is the motivation for his behavior, beyond simple economic opportunity?
Keeney's pride pushes him to put his goal of
getting the oil ahead of any feelings for his wife. He needs to get the oil to feel strong and to prove himself. At the same time, he denies that his wife is really going mad, saying, "I know you're foolin' me" (lines 892-893). He may feel justified in staying "jest a little while longer" at sea because he can't believe she is actually losing her mind and because she insisted on making the voyage in the first place.
