Answer: C) she is not strong enough to stand up to the grandmother and D) she is not very bright.

Explanation: By reading O'Connor's description of Bailey's wife we can infer that she is not strong enough to stand up to the grandmother, because he describes her as "innocent" and with a "broad face" that description gives the idea of a calm woman who doesn't stand up against anyone. We can also infer that she is not very bright, because O'Connor compares her with a cabbage.

In about two hundred words, show what you understand about the literary devices used in the plot development of Things Fall Apar
Alexandra [31]

There are many literary devices used in the plot development of <em>Things Fall Apart</em>; let's remember that we call a <em>literary device</em> all those tools an author use to convey his/her ideas and points in a story.

One of the tools used by Achebe in this text is irony. One example of this is Okonkwo's suicide at the end. After saying he could survive everything, you don't expect him to do it.

Another literary device the author uses is foreshadowing. This happens when an event or action hits at a future event or action. This is used, for example, when Okonkwo falls into depression after being exiled to his motherland for killing a clansman and, at the end he commites suicide. This depression meant more for him that any other event and changed his destiny.

Symbolism is other used tool in this story when referred to a man's ability to grow yams. It is directly tied to his manhood and how others see him as a man. In this particular case, the yam is the major symbol of masculinity.

In at least 150 words, explain the controversy that continues to surround The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
Nikolay [14]
The controversy that surrounds the novel "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is particularly due to the fact that schools and libraries across the US have been drawn into debates about censorship context included int the novel , the regional dialects and the stereotypes of African American lives shown in the novel. Mark Twain included words in this novel, that has been previously noted as offensive, to properly pro tray the southern lifestyle and these words included have therefore helped to cause the controversy over it. These terms, if not understood as an element of realism, can be inappropriate or disturbing for young readers to have read. Characters in the novel also follow stereotypes of the African American lifestyle that can be seen as an insult if the reader doesn't understand the author's intention of displaying those stereotypes. Twain uses satire in the novel to show the social injustices of the 1900's and if the reader doesn't understand the intentions of the author by including it, it can be seen as highly offensive, and inappropriate, causing a spark of controversy.

Anni [7]
<span>Changing the point of view will cause completely different narrative of a story. You will never know the character's own thoughts, motifs of doing something and his/her perception of everything will not be that clear as it can be depicted in first point of view, when character tell you his story personally. If it was narrated in first person from other character you would never found out what is really true in the story.<span>
