The detail which best illustrates a contradiction in Okonkwo's character is that he waits up with Ekwefi while their daughter is with the priestess. The correct option is B. Okonkwo is a great warrior in his village and a very rich man. He loves showing his masculinity by shying away from anything that will allow him to show his tender emotions and he always make jest of men who relate lovingly with their wives. Okonkwo waited up with one of his wives when their daughter was sick and she was been taken care of by a priestess. This action shows another side of Okonkwo, who normally will make jest of any man who do that.

discuss how Ha Jin employs casual, informal language in his story “The Bane of the Internet” to make a deeper statement about th
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Ha Jin employs a<em> casual, informal language</em> in his story by<em> writing as if the reader is a person he knows.</em> This allows the reader to become part of the story he is creating. Since the tone is more "personal," the reader feels <u>the author's feelings and statements in the text</u> and gets involved in it.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story entitled "The Bane of the Internet," written by Ha Jin<em> (a Chinese)</em>. It centers on the hardships of immigrating to another country and how tedious it is.

Writing may be done in a "formal way" or an "informal way." (I have already discussed the informal type of writing above). A formal type of writing, on the other hand, is impersonal in nature and more subjective than an informal way of writing. It is often used for <em>"academic or business purposes.</em>"
