Emilio took the cap off his head, dropped the baseball bat, and rested his elbows on the fence. It wasn't that he couldn't find

the ball. It was sitting right in the middle of the lawn, just beyond the fence. The fence was not very high either. Emilio could probably get a running start, grab the top of the fence, and flip right over it. But there was a dog, a large Rottweiler with a spiked collar. He sat under an awning a few feet away from the ball. He looked at Emilio and let out a menacing growl. Archie, Scotty, and Dutch ran up to Emilio and surveyed the situation. Archie was the first to speak, "So, are you going to do it, Emilio?" 1. What were the boys doing right before the text begins? 2. What problem is Emilio facing? 3. Why is this problem Emilio's instead of Archie's, Scotty's, or Dutch's?

The things that are falling are bombs. The bombs do not care what they hit. They do not have a preference for roads, roofs, thickets, or people. The bombers drop them with a specific target line up, but the bomb does not care what that is. This adds to the overall tone and mood of the poem.

Answer:In a five-paragraph literary analysis essay, explain how each author develops the common theme. Compare and contrast how the authors develop this theme by referencing specific literary devices and techniques in your response. Thesis: Cisneros's and Otika's stories reveal that America is made up of a blend of cultures as well as its own.Cultural identity has to do with who you, as an individual person, are. Different foods, traditions, clothing, and language can contribute to one's cultural identity. However, some may interpret cultural identity differently. Americans get their cultural identity from many cultures and add their own. Cisneros's"Mericans" and "Otika's Response to Executive Order 9066" reveal that America is made up of a blend of cultures as well as its own.Otika shows how she interprets her own cultural identity and how others identify her. She uses an anecdote to convey her theme. In February 1942, the US President signed Executive order 9066, affectingmany Japanese people in America.

Which scenario is an example of understatement?
8_murik_8 [283]

The answer is C: A teacher assigns a 10 page research project and says, "this might take a little time".

An understatement is a statement that underplays the significance, value, size, relevance or importance of something and it makes it seem considerable less than what it actually is. In this example, the teacher makes it seem like writing a 10 page essay will take just “a little time”, when in fact, any student knows that a 10 page essay in a considerable enterprise that will take a lot more than just a little time.
