Describe the effects of anthropomorphism, the application of human traits to animals, in the dialogue between Sergei and the gol
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The anthropomorphism in this story leaves the tone of the narrative amusing, despite a tense moment that is happening.

Explanation:

The dialogue between the goldfish and Sergei happens when Sergei accidentally kills Yoni.

The narrated scene is tense and heavy, as Yoni collapses on the floor, amid a pool of blood after being hit on the head. However, the anthropomorphism presented by the goldfish in this scene, allows a certain relief in the story and leaves the moment with a slightly amusing tone. That's because the fish shows sarcastic thoughts and speeches, which promotes a comical and funny relief to such a serious moment.

Nadusha1986 [10]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question

Read “My Father’s Sadness” by Shirley Geok-lin Lim

Evaluate Are lines 18–19, "the mangrove netted by lianas, the host perishing of its lavishness," an effective ending for the poem? Support your view by explaining both the literal image created by the lines as well as their figurative meaning.

Answer:

It´s an effective ending because it uses a beautiful metaphor deeply connected to the author´s and her father's heritage.

Explanation:

The literal image is that of a decaying mangrove, a kind of tree found mostly in Asia, from where the father of the poem is from. This type of tree is the host to organic content that feeds from the tree´s ecosystem.

The figurative meaning is that of the dying father, who has succumbed to the responsibilities of being the sole provider of the family.
