Which details in the story reveal the influence of American cultural heritage on the children? Check each correct answer below.
maxonik [38]
I am not really sure about the context of this question, but I believe the best answer would be C.

The first choice seems to symbolize elements that are not really true American heritage but rather cultural.

The second choice, I believe, pertains more towards having fun. However, one can stretch the meaning giving modern events to represent a facet of American culture (guns) but it doesn't really represent heritage.

The last choice seems to also have a playful tone regarding the Lone Ranger. In specifics, however, the Lone Ranger and Wild West is not really representative of neither the entire American culture nor American heritage.

That's why I believe choice C, or "grandmother knits the names...", is the best option to choose.

  • It can stand alone even if it does not add to the complete sentence.
  • It has a final intonation pattern.
  • The presence of capital letters and punctuation in a sentence.

Sentences have the following elements:

  • Subject is a noun in a sentence that can be the name of a person, animal, object, greeting, and others.
  • Predicate is the part that marks what has been said or written by the first party.

Identify the italicized figure of speech.
Usimov [2.4K]
You didn't italicize any words, so I will just try to explain the figures of speech you have listed above, and hopefully that will help you.

1. hyperbole - this is exaggeration. For example, 'I waited for him for a hundred years' to denote you had to wait for someone for a longer period of time. You didn't really wait for him for a hundred years - it is an exaggeration. Poets and writers often use this figure of speech in order to make a statement, and impact on the reader. I can't see examples of hyperbole in this excerpt, so I wouldn't choose that as the correct option here.

2. paradox - paradox is a figure of speech in which you combine two things which are opposite from each other in nature. It creates an absurd phrase because two contradictory statements are brought together, such as 'drinking a lot of water can make you thirsty.' I can see an example of paradox in the excerpt above, which is "day brought back my night." Day and night are each other's opposites, which makes a paradox if they are brought together like this. 

3. understatement - this is a figure of speech which authors use when they want to make something appear to have a lesser value than it actually has; when they want to demean something as being less important that what it seems. An example of an understatement would be the following - you get a lot of money at a lottery, and when asked how you feel about it, you say 'I'm happy.' You would obviously feel much stronger emotions if this happened. I don't see instances of understatement here either.

I would choose paradox as the correct answer here.

Allisa [31]
<span>C.) it is wrong for Africans to live in worse conditions than white people under apartheid

The words in this passage that show how bad the conditions are are "sad, bleak and terrible." This shows how awful life is if you are not white, and what a shame it is if that is the only life you'll ever know.</span>
