Answer:

Chang purpose is to show that the Chinese <em>brought distinctive cultural traits to America—such as reverence for education, hard work, thriftiness, entrepreneurship, and family loyalty—which actually helped many of them to achieve rapid success in their adopted country, America.</em>

Explanation:

Chang's book shows the continuity of the Chinese migrants journey in the United State of the past century. The hardwork exihibted by the Chinese during the building of the continental railroad could be seen in them working from sunrise to sunset (6 days a week ) and at same time assuming the most dangerous work when the construction was going on.

While the White labourer complained of the job being harder, it was only the chinese that were willing to take up the hard part of the construction. Some of the jobs they did include <em>pouring nitroglycerin into holes drilled in granite and exploding of dynamite while suspended by ropes on the sides of steep mountain cliffs</em>.

Eventhough, so many people died while the project was ongoing, it still did not limit them from contributing towards the success of that railroad construction.

Pay attention to how the poem at once seems to describe a pleasant outing and the experience of being called away from life by d
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

In the poem, the speaker seems to be discussing a pleasant date, as if oblivious to the fact that this is a journey to death. The tone of the poem seems light and perhaps even dismissive of all the scenes passing by, as though these cornerstones of life were not terribly significant. However, the underlying mood of the poem is somewhat sad because the speaker is describing a world she’s leaving behind. This difference between the descriptions of the outing and of dying creates some dramatic irony.  The speaker sees but doesn’t really see the world of the living because she’s already dead.

Explanation:

This is the exact from Edmentum so make sure to change it up a little.

nevsk [136]

The romantic period, which preceded the realist period, glorified war. The Civil War, however, resulted in the loss of many lives on both sides of the war. The horrific reality of the Civil War left no room for such an association in realist works. Realist writers such as Bierce, writing after the war, dwelled on the painful and gory aspects of war. The Civil War also led to a cynical and sometimes bleak outlook on life, which realist writing often reveals.
