Answer:
From the opening sentence, we understand that there are thirteen bubbles that floated in the milk.
The author described the bubbles as "transparent hemispheres gleamed like souvenirs of the summer days just past, rich with blue reflections of the sky and of shadowy greens".
The effect of the author's choice of words was that of imagery as it helped the readers to "see" the bubbles in their mind's eye with such clarity as it was so succinctly described.
The author further described John's actions as he used the spoon to scoop the milk and swallow it in such a way that suggested he was either very hungry or in a hurry.
"John Hawkins jabbed the bubble closest to him with his spoon,. . .there was no mark of where it had been"
This description had the effect of making the readers know how eager John was to consume the milk and how quickly the ripples vanished.
The readers can also infer that John consumed the milk in an aggressive manner because of the way he jabbed at the ripple closest to him in his effort to drink the milk.

Antithesis as a literary device, uses parallelism to Express contradictory ideas as one overarching and fluid theme that when taken together cause the reader to pause and deeply consider what the author is trying to convey. In "life without go-go boots,"the author uses two contrasting views regarding her position on fashion and its importance in how we are slated in society. Opposing one another throughout the piece are the importance of inner-individuality as well as outward conformity. The two seemingly opposite ideas when taken together help define the constant warring ideas every person on the planet goes through at one point or another. The author pits them opposite one another as a sort of yin and yang where both are required to maintain balance in the universe-at least her universe. In reality her lack of fashion brings her to a much more comfortable position in life as she realizes her career as an author allow her to be eccentric every day. Until she is required to play by the rules and go to her awards ceremony. She accentuates the theme of contradiction all the way to the end when she describes the suit which still hangs at the top of her closet, dry cleaned as if to remind her that despite her best efforts to be that fashion-conscious lady she understands that was and never will be her role. She doesnt fault either side but does express the sentiment that the fact that she never was that person still bothers the little girl in her that longed for acceptance by the masses.
