This question is about "A quilt of a country".
Answer:
C. She supports the idea that every generation of immigrants arrives with the same dreams and faces the same problems of assimilation.
Explanation:
In paragraph 7, the author shows that even if cultural diversity prevents the country from reaching a national character, it brings all immigrants together in the same story and still achieves American glomorization about overcoming difficulties.
This is because all immigrants, including those who lived in the country in remote times, came with the same dreams and goals and had the same difficulties to establish themselves and readapt to the new environment. This unites them all in a single concept, thus being able to create a national character.
Answer:
A.) to endear certain characters to us.
D.) to show characters’ educational levels.
Stowe's use of dialogue enriches the setting of the story in various ways. First of all, it makes the characters more realistic and endears certain characters to us. By representing their speech as it most likely sounded in real life, we feel like we get to know the characters better. This makes us care about them more deeply. Stowe also uses dialect in order to show the educational levels of the characters, as "standard" English is most likely to be used by characters who are literate and have received some education.
Not having the excerpt here, I can only help you to find the answer. Mood is the feeling you get when you read the passage. Foreboding is fearful or apprehensive. Welcoming is or can be joyful and accommodating or making someone feel comfortable in their surroundings. Sorrowful is sad or mournful. Optimistic is positive, hopeful, and confident about your future. As you read the passage, which of these are you feeling or closely matches your feelings.
