The sentence from "Broken Chain" which contains the most descriptive language is the following one:

“At four he decided to get it over with and started walking to Sandra’s house, trudging slowly, as if he were waist-deep in water.”

It is the most descriptive language because there is even a figure of speech: <em>as if he were waist-deep in water</em> (a comparison). The author took the liberty to use such a linguistic resource so the idea and feeling could be better gotten across.

In at least 150 words, discuss two ways in which Okonkwo increasingly finds himself to be an outsider when he returns to Umuofia
Reptile [31]
Okonkwo is gone from the village for seven years. When he returns, he expects that he can pick up where he left off. However, he finds that a lot has changed.

One major change is that the church has increased in power. As a result, the connections among the villagers themselves have weakened. Another major change is that the missionaries have implemented their own laws and government. As a result, their own customs are being left behind.

Okonkwo is shocked to find the power the missionaries have gained while he was gone. He is even more shocked that the villagers have allowed these changes to happen.
