English

These lines contain an alliteration.

"Soon, her father grew impatient with her fear and began to bait the bird with offerings of bloody chunks of beef."

An alliteration uses repetitive sounds, letter combinations, or words that begin with the same letters. They are also known as tongue-twisters.

We also know that these lines do <em>not</em> rhyme, do <em>not</em> contain any metaphors, and do <em>not</em> form a narrative.

Answer: Time progresses chronologically with one flashback and a return to the original time.

Explanation:

In the first part, Zeitoun is thinking of the canoe (present time), this leads to a memory of the time the canoe was stolen from the Claiborne house, he and Kathy noticed it when he was released from prison (flashback), then he thinks on how all the stolen things were replaced except for the canoe and he misses it (return to the present), finally he keeps thinking about if he should get a new canoe and if his family would like it (still present).

Read the passage from Rain Myths.
AnnyKZ [126]

The sentence from the passage which is the best example of the feature found in a myth is "Near the beginning of life on Earth, Shen Nong, who was the Lord of the Wind, made many journeys over our world."

Myth refers to the traditional stories which include supernatural beings or events, concerned with the history of the people or explaining the social or natural phenomenon. For Example folk tales, fable, lore and so on.

Therefore, the above instance suggests that in <em>"Near the beginning of life on Earth"</em>, where no co- life existed with Shen Nong, he is considered to be the existence on earth. On the other hand, <em>"Lord of the Wind"</em> contains a supernatural figure which bestows the power related to wind. Hence, this sentence is considered to be the myth as it can relate to false idea or belief.
