Read the excerpt from “First Generation” of Dreaming in Cuban. She considers the vagaries of sports, the happenstance of El Líde

r, a star pitcher in his youth, narrowly missing a baseball career in America. His wicked curveball attracted the major league scouts, and the Washington Senators were interested in signing him but changed their minds. Frustrated, El Líder went home, rested his pitching arm, and started a revolution in the mountains. Read the excerpt from “Like Mexicans.” We talked for an hour and had apple pie and coffee, slowly. Finally, we got up with Carolyn taking my hand. Slightly embarrassed, I tried to pull away but her grip held me. I let her have her way as she led me down the hallway with her mother right behind me. . . . Carolyn waved again. I looked, back, waving. . . . Her people were like Mexicans, only different. Which best states how the structures of the excerpts are similar?

They are similar insofar that they use the same tenses, that is the past simple tense, and short clear sentences that tell of a story in the past. The style is simple with few adjectives and not that many clauses or phrases. This kind of a style was made popular by Ernest Hemingway, but others wrote like it too, like the paragraphs here.

According to Freud, which part of the unconscious mind is responsible for giving food to needy people?(Id,Ego,Superego). Please
Archy [21]

According to Freud, the superego is the part of the unconscious mind that is responsible for giving food to the needy people.

Explanation:

According to the theory of Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, there are three parts of the human psyche:  

  • The id. The id is the impulsive unconscious part of our psyche, which is the source of our basic urges, needs, impulses, and desires. The id is the only part of the personality that a newborn child has, while the ego and superego develop later on. The id remains infantile during our entire lives and is not affected by logic or the world surrounding us.
  • The ego. The purpose of the ego is to create a balance between the id and the real world. It is the decision-making part of our mind. It seeks to satisfy id's needs in a realistic way we can benefit from. We can refer to the ego as our reason and common sense.
  • The superego. The superego is a moral component of our psyche, the function of which is to control the id's impulses, especially those which society forbids. It controls our sense of right and wrong and can be considered to be a type of conscience that punishes misbehavior with the feeling of guilt.

Based on this information, we can conclude that the superego is the part of the unconscious mind that is responsible for giving food to the needy. Giving food to the needy people is morally right, something that can be expected from us and praised by society.

Feliz [49]

1) the correct answer is B True love is inexplicable and boundless.

2) the correct answer is C “I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where” (Line 9).

3) the correct answer is  A urgent and passionate.

4) At the beginning of the poem, he says why he does not love her. He doesn't love her as if she was a salt-rose, topaz, or carnation, but he loves her as if she was a plant that does not bloom. This means that he does not love her superficially, but he loves her deeply for who she is on the inside.

Flowers are beautiful things that everyone admires, but no one would admire a flower that doesn’t bloom because they could not see the beauty that it contains.

Damm [24]
This scene occurs when Balfour is on the small islet. Balfour gives into despair when he tires to cross the river but cannot -- it is too deep. He finds that his "yard" (a piece of wood he was saving to float on) has been carried away. Believing he has no way to escape the islet, he gives into despair and weeps.
