Read the excerpt from Enrique’s Journey. Two gangsters had overheard his description and kicked him mercilessly. "Next time, we

kill you," the gangsters told him. The teenager, afraid for his life, asked to be deported. Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars." We should also make it easier for children to apply as refugees when they are still in Central America, as we have done for people in Iraq, Cuba, countries in the former Soviet Union, Vietnam and Haiti. Those who showed a well-founded fear of persecution wouldn’t have to make the perilous journey north alone. How do details from the excerpts support the purpose of advocating for children from Central America? Both include information that ask people to help children from Central America. Both offer solutions that show how victims from other countries have been helped. The excerpt from Enrique’s Journey uses quotations to show that it is better for these children to be sent back, and “Children of the Drug Wars” uses examples describing how other countries have dealt with the issue. The excerpt from Enrique’s Journey tells a story about what happened to one victim, and “Children of the Drug Wars” uses words that create an emotional response to persuade readers to take action.

Answer:

The excerpt from Enrique’s Journey tells a story about what happened to one victim, and “Children of the Drug Wars” uses words that create an emotional response to persuade readers to take action.

Explanation:

Sonia Nazario's "Enrique's Journey" revolves around the journey that a young boy Enrique undertook to be united with his mother. The perilous journey led him through many unfortunate encounters which shows how people like Enrique had to endure to get safely to America illegally.

Damon Barrett's "Children of the Drug Wars" presents the all too familiar scenario of what children have to endure and encounter in their lives during the war with drugs and how it has an impact on them and their future lives.

While the <u>excerpt from "Enrique's Journey" tells of a single victim, the latter excerpt uses words to create an appealing emotional response to persuade readers to take action.</u> Enrique's encounter with the gangsters terrified him so much that he asked to be deported. On the other hand, the speaker of the latter book asks for children of drug wars to be allowed to be taken as refugees so that they need not <em>"make the perilous journey north alone"</em>.

How is the word choice regarding the parents’ surname significant in sleeping
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Winter symbolizes cold, still, fruitless time of no change, when things aren't born, renewed, or changed.</u>

By naming the two characters, Mr. and Mrs. Winter by this season, the writer symbolizes the coldness and childlessness in their life. It seems that they lost the child, but they approached the grief from the calculated, rational point -<u> not acknowledging the loss and emotions, and continuing to act rationally on the outside as if nothing is happening.</u>

<u>This can be connected to the coldness and stillness of the winter, the snow that covers all the flora and vegetation, and seems to last forever in the icy embrace. </u>
