The correct answer is this one: "They went to the railroad stations and bought tickets for the fast trains and the slow trains and even the trains that back up and run backward instead of where they start to go." This is the line of the excerpt from Carl Sandburg's "How the Animals Lost Their Tails and Got Them Back Traveling from Philadelphia to Medicine Hat" that uses repetition and <span>alliteration.</span>

I think its the sentence that repeats the word "blew" cause its actually the only one using repetition.

-(A big wind blew up and blew and blew till all the tails of the animals blew off.)

Why does the narrator's mother most likely put the guardian angel picture up outside the narrator's room?
Crank

In "Gravity", by Judith Ortiz Cofer, the narrator's mother most likely put the guardian angel picture up outside the narrator's room c. to remind the narrator of her Puerto Rican roots.

Elenita starts the narration speaking about her bedroom, which is decorated following her style with her books, and her radio. Her mother decorated the house with pictures of saints and angels in what Elenita calls a primitive Puerto Rican style. Elenita took the picture of the guardian angel out of her room. Her mother placed it outside her door so that she sees it every time she goes in or out of her bedroom, to be reminded of her Puerto Rican roots.

How does the beginning of "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain" relate to the conclusion? Select all that apply.
gtnhenbr [62]
These are the correct options, in my opinion. A. <span>The ending is inspiring in contrast to the beginning. The beginning is calm and toned down. The speaker is sorry to hear the young Negro underrate his own racial identity, but there is no solution yet. On the other hand, the conclusion is exulted, lively, and defiant. It offers an inspiring solution, calling upon Negro artists to finally climb that mountain and get free of their inherent prejudices about themselves. D. </span><span>The ending revisits a quote that was used in the beginning. This quote is from the young Negro poet: </span><span>"I want to be a poet--not a Negro poet," and it represents the wish of the middle-class Negroes to blend into American standardized society, denying their own identity.</span>
