1. Lines 1–9: Read the first paragraph of “Blaxicans” and infer Rodriguez’s claim.
Serjik [45]

Answer and Explanation:

After reading only the first paragraph of "Blaxicans", by Richard Rodriguez, we can infer the work is about how immigrants are changing America. The author mentions how the cultures and languages immigrants bring with themselves once they arrive create some sort of confusion and even fear among those who are "here first". "[W]e who are already here" begin to wonder whether the newcomers will fit in or whether they will somehow change our identity.

Click here to review: "The Adventure of the Mysterious Picture." (Links to an external site.) Then refer to this passage to answ
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

a. It produces shivers down the spine, or a feeling of unease.

Explanation:

Washington Irving's "The Adventure of the Mysterious Picture" is a gothic story where the characters staying in the house were talking, sharing stories of haunted places. And the host of the house had 'in jest' said that one of the rooms was haunted, so the her of the nigh will be revealed the next morning after they had all spent their nights in their own allotted rooms.

The passage in the question gives the details of the narrator's room. he had seen a picture hanging in his allotted room and had been unable to ignore it. He felt all sorts of uneasiness, unable to even sleep properly, constantly thinking there's someone hovering above him. The tone of the passage gives us a feeling of horror, sending shivers down the spine, making us feel uneasy. This passage makes it possible that the room was indeed haunted, making even us, the readers, scared of what will happen and what really is the picture about. It spreads a feeling of uncomfortable, and scared feeling in the narrator and the readers altogether.

Which statement best describes how dramatic irony is used in this passage? The reader knows that the human neighbors plan to des
LenKa [72]

The example that best describes it is the 1st one; since "dramatic irony" occurs when the audience (<em>readers</em>) understands what's going to happen, and knows about certain characters' actions, or event, and the characters are unaware of it; hence the characters actions go on a different way.

The tactic is used to make the audience more involved; thus it often creates this feeling of being powerless in the readers' mind, to do anything about it.

So the best statement is: "<em>The reader knows that the human neighbors plan to destroy Animal Farm</em>"
