Write a paragraph to explain the role Logan’s house played in Janie’s life. Support your answer with at least two examples from

Katen [24]

One interpretation of Janie Crawford is that her growth as a character is closely related to her ability as a master storyteller. With Killicks, she has no voice; with Joe Starks, her voice is very limited, but with Tea Cake, Janie's own voice emerges and she joins with him as a master storyteller. This emergence of Janie as storyteller parallels her coming into being as a woman.

1. With Logan Killicks, an older man,Granny arranges marriage for Janie after having spotted Johnny Taylor "lacerating her Janie with a kiss." Wishing to protect Janie from those who would exploit her, Granny wants her granddaughter, "safe in life."

"You ain't got nobody but me. And mah head is ole and tilted towards de grave. Neither can you stand alone by yo'self....Ah got tuh try and do for you befo' mah head is cold."

2. When Janie meets Joe Starks coming up the road, and he tells her of his ambitions; perceiving that Janie is dissatisfied with her life and wishing to be influenced, Starks leads Janie along with him. However, Joe is yet another dominating man who traps Janie in life. Once he owns his store, Joe has Janie "dress up and stand in the store all...evening" one night. "She must look on herself as the bell-cow, the other women were the gang."

Joe refuses to allow Janie a voice. When the townspeople ask her to speak after he is made mayor, Starks says,

...mah wife don't know nothin' 'bout no speech makin'. Ah never married her for nothin' lak dat. She's uh woman and her place is in de home.

Further, because other men look at her with desire, Joe makes Janie cover her beautiful hair while she works in the store, which "kept her with a sick headache." Repressed, Janie again finds herself wishing for more in her life. somewhere to "laugh and play," not to be a possession on display.

Both her relationships with Logan Killicks and Joe Starks are confining. While they offer Janie financial protection, she desires independence. Janie never feels any sense of self in her marriages to these men; she is simply a wife to work or to be ornamentation, never to be a storyteller

If the writer paraphrases an opinion that she has read rather than reached independently, she is not required to cite the source

andrezito [222]

This statement is false.
Any time a writer paraphrases something he or she read somewhere, it means that he or she is paraphrasing somebody else's words, which means that person has to be credited for it. If the writer reached an opinion independently, then they wouldn't have to cite the source, but otherwise, they do, if they want to avoid plagiarism.

The clothing retail store at which you work has been losing sales to a local competitor down the street. Customer surveys indica

Solutions to generate more sales.

In order to attract more customer, one has to meet their expectations and make them feel satisfy with whatever they are buying.

First, if we go with the trending fashion then definitely we can beat our competitors. No one would like to buy clothes which are outdated already. Therefore keeping stock of clothes that are highly trending can help to increase the sales.

Second and the most easiest way to increase the business is to keep offers and discounts. Who would not go to the shop which has offers. Discounting offers or any coupon thing can create a positive impact in the minds of the customers.

Third and very useful solution is to stick posters outside the shop. Posters of appealing dresses which make customers want to buy it. So even if a person is on his way to somewhere else, he can just have a quick glance of what’s in store, and which in turn will help to bring him in that shop in near future.
