entity. (2) Cisneros illustrates this through a number of images and ideas. (3) For example, the speaker, Micaela, calls her grandmother “awful,” and seems to resent the woman’s strict views and religious ideals. (4) The speaker also mentions how she and her brother emulate characters from popular American television programs when they play make-believe. (5) Lastly, she describes physically standing outside her family’s church, an act that symbolizes the fact that she feels like an outsider to Mexican culture. (6) Although Micaela is of Mexican descent, she seems to feel a stronger connection to the United States.

In at least 150 words explain how the dialect used by huck and Jim in these excerpts contributes to the realism of the story
blagie [28]

Answer:

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was one of the first novels written in "American English" particularly the ones spoken by the narrator and main protagonist of the story. The "Pike County Dialect" and its variations, is the language in which Huck and most of the important characters to the plot, (like his father, like Tom and Jim, Aunt Polly, Judith Loftus) expressed themself. The function of this dialect is to give us the reality of a marginalized and impoverished entity that is palpable throughout the entire book, the author gives this dialect a leading role that is seeks to give us that realism necessary to understand the concept, that happen along to the Mississippi River, and brings us closer to details of southern society, such as racism and the superstition of the slaves in that time, Jim is a fugitive slave  who flees seeking his freedom, and Huck captured by his evil father, who takes him to live in a hut down river, there Huck remains captive, but manages to escape in a raft  they find each other and the two undertake a dangerous journey and live many adventures together.

LiRa [457]

Answer:

–

Explanation:

If a student cannot make it to school they can easily use their tablet to access the resources they need in order to learn.

Plus, if you give kids systems such as VR they can see what they need to learn visually. It will help them better grasp an idea of somewhere they have never physically been rather than just staring at a picture.

Using technology is something most kids do daily, if they can use it for school they would definitely take advantage of it and get a lot of education in without even realizing!

Reflective essays explore what the author believes and the origins of those beliefs. Which sentences in this excerpt from Amy Ta
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: But to me, my mother's English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It's my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, full of observation and imagery. That was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed things, made sense of the world.

In this passage, Tan is giving us information about her mother's speech. She uses various examples to convey what the mother's English sounds like and the kind of things she can accomplish with it. However, it is at the very end where Tan explains where her own views of the world come from. She argues that her perspective, her views on the world and her beliefs all come from her "mother tongue," which is the way her mother speaks English.
