The connotative word for me is PITIFULLY or pitifully young. This means very young and it refers to the woman in the text.

It would seem that the words used invoked negative emotions because the narrator is saying that the girl is very young to be married. It would seem as though the narrator is questioning the rightness of the bride's decision of getting married at a very young age.

I think it isn’t a fair law because teenagers sometimes don’t know what they are doing, and also they should consider their age because they are not adults, they are teens so they are still discovering the world around them, and we are in the 21st century, we are not back into history, so that is why it isn’t a fair law.

Being grown up means a lot of responsibilities that some teens don’t have, and for me that’s putting a lot of pressure on them, also they shouldn’t be treating them like adults because they are kids, who should focus on their education and not that much on life problems.

Hope this helps

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.
