How does Marjane Satrapi use structure and style to achieve a specific purpose for a specific audience?
I believe that you are talking about the work "Persepolis" written and designed by Marjane Satrapi. If that is the case, Satrapi uses a chronological framework to tell her story, showing how the Islamic revolution has interfered in her life from childhood to adulthood, as well as showing how her family has been affected over time. This type of structure is efficient for communicating with an audience interested in history and impacting revolutions on life and ordinary people. Regarding the style, we can see that Satrapi used a simpler style, without striking details, showing that the story was more adult and dealt with strong and not childish themes.
"Persepolis" is an autobiographical grafic novel, where the author shows the development of her life within the Islamic revolution in Iran.
The phrase that best characterizes "Variations on a Theme by William Carlos
Williams" by Kenneth Koch is:
A. Defiant yet subdued
B. Sincere and contemporary
C. Completely original
D. Imitative yet fresh
E. Modern and violent
Answer: D. Imitative yet fresh
Explanation:
Koch´s poem is a parody, meaning that it purposefully makes fun of something. In this case, the author mocks a serious composition by imitating its style or tone. "Variations on a Theme by William Carlos
Williams," as many other poems by Koch, used satire to express his disagreement with the idea of poetry being solemn and not suitable for humor. By using a similar structure and theme (having done something wrong and providing an excuse for it), Koch mocks "This is Just to Say," by William Carlos Williams. And to make it more clear, Koch makes his character a doctor, just like Williams, who was a poet in his free time after working in the hospital.
Answer:
Imitative yet fresh
Explanation:
It's D for this one, but the answers mix up.

Another word for components is parts. Thus, option (b) is correct.

I knew I could never let Mom hear the messages, because protecting her is one my most important raisons d’etre, so what I did was I took Dad’s emergency money from on top of his dresser, and I went to Radio Shack on Amsterdam. It was on a TV there that I saw that the first building had fallen. I bought the exact same phone and ran home and recorded our greeting from the first phone onto it. —Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, Jonathan Safran Foer What inference does the narrator make

aye i have a question can yhu help me right quick?? ighty i was suppose to have this novel long story short ion have the dayum novel, Maus is the name of the novel. What is the novel about, can yhu write it in a paragraph??? Thanks XD
Answer:
Maus is a graphic novel by American cartoonist Art Spiegelman. Serialized from 1980 to 1991, it depicts Spiegelman interviewing his father about his experiences as a Polish Jew and Holocaust survivor. The work employs postmodernist techniques and represents Jews as mice, Germans as cats, and Poles as pigs.
Most of the book weaves in and out of two timelines. In the frame tale of the narrative present, Spiegelman interviews his father Vladek in the Rego Park neighborhood of New York City in 1978–79. The story that Vladek tells unfolds in the narrative past, which begins in the mid-1930s and continues until the end of the Holocaust in 1945.
The following passage (paragraphs 7-8) mainly suggests that .
Proponents of the astronaut-preferred camp point, quite rightfully, at the versatility and independence of humans. Fans of human spaceflight are certainly correct when they remind us that humans are highly versatile. People observe the conditions around them and can react to circumstances as needed.
However, people are also fragile. They need food, water, and air. They can exist in only a narrow range of temperatures and find inhospitable both vacuums and a radioactive environment. While some adventurers might prefer to remain in space forever, many of them expect to land gently back on Earth. All of these considerations are extremely challenging and not important for robotic missions.
Answer choices for the above question

Hello. The correct question is:
why are beans a good fit for a city garden?
Because they tend to attract little wildlife because they pair well with many other foods because they need little direct sunlight or water because they grow upward and do well in containers
Answer:
because they grow upward and do well in containers
Explanation:
The bean plant is a climbing plant, which means that it can grow by supporting itself on walls, and any other object that projects vertically. This makes the bean a great plant for an urban garden, as it will be able to take advantage of the city's constructions to grow and will not take up much space. In addition, beans are a very productive plant and their beans can be easily stored in containers for a long period of time.

Hello,
I am supposed to be writing an argumentative essay. I chose to write about the foster care system but I have yet to pinpoint an exact topic so some suggestions would be great.
Ask yourself these questions as you revise:
Does my main character deal with the conflict in a unique way that reveals his personality?
Does my exposition give the reader enough information to understand the story and its characters?
Do my rising action and climax center on the story's main conflict? Do they both lead to the resolution of the conflict in some way?
Do my falling action and conclusion show what happens to the main character after the conflict has been resolved? Do they indicate what has changed and what has stayed the same?
Do I use enough sensory details to make the scenes vivid and realistic?
Is my point of view consistently in first person? Is the perspective of the main character consistent, accurate, and compelling?
Answer:
um what??? I dont get it sorry

They may be Christian. Or they fear God truly
Explanation:
Answer: Sometimes, we must follow our own hearts and feelings, over our government or rules. Soon, we realize that we feel that something is wrong. Therefore, we wish to do the right thing, whether it be right by morals, or right by God. so we follow our own choices and our own self created path. To go against our nature is a sin in a way. To do the bidding of others is not our natural state, but to be ourselves and follow our own morals is what we do.
