What is the author's purpose in Enrique's Journey?

Answers

Answer 1

The author's purpose in Enrique Journey was to help bring more humanity and nuance to this migrant crisis for Americans.

Author Sonia Nazario’s inspiration for creating “Enrique’s Journey” came with wanting to learn more about the “small army” of youngsters fleeing Central America and journeying through Mexico in search of parents living in the United States.

She located Enrique, whose mother had abandoned him in Honduras when he was 5 years old so she could work in the US. At age 16, armed solely with her phone number, he went out to locate her. In order to avoid crooked police, bandits, and criminals, he and the other immigrant youngsters rode on the sides and tops of freight trains.

Nazario spent three months retracing his steps after talking to Enrique about his eight attempts to enter the country. He rode trains and interacted with migrants and others who assisted them along the route.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question.

Of their married felicity but little is known, perhaps for the reason that Tennessee, then living with his partner, one day took occasion to say something to the bride on his own account, at which, it is said, she smiled not unkindly and chastely retreated—this time as far as Marysville, where Tennessee followed her, and where they went to housekeeping without the aid of a Justice of the Peace. Tennessee’s Partner took the loss of his wife simply and seriously, as was his fashion. But to everybody’s surprise, when Tennessee one day returned from Marysville, without his partner’s wife—she having smiled and retreated with somebody else—Tennessee’s Partner was the first man to shake his hand and greet him with affection…

One night, when the pines beside the cabin were swaying in the storm, and trailing their slender fingers over the roof, and the roar and rush of the swollen river were heard below, Tennessee’s Partner lifted his head from the pillow, saying, “It is time to go for Tennessee; I must put ‘Jinny’ in the cart,” and would have risen from his bed but for the restraint of his attendant. Struggling, he still pursued his singular fancy: “There, now, steady, ‘Jinny’—steady, old girl. How dark it is! Look out for the ruts—and look out for him, too, old gal! Sometimes, you know, when he’s blind drunk, he drops down right in the trail. Keep on straight up to the pine on the top of the hill. Thar—I told you so!—thar he is—coming this way, too—all by himself, sober, and his face a-shining. Tennessee! Pardner!”

And so they met.

In at least one hundred words, describe how the theme of friendship and loyalty is developed in these excerpts.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The text presented above, develops the theme of friendship and loyalty by showing how the company of true friendships is able to strengthen a person, allowing difficult and confusing moments to be taken with more tranquility and comfort. True friendships promote care and concern for each other and this is evident at the end of the text, when friends are afraid that one of them will fall from the hill, because he is drunk and so they will seek him out to prevent this accident from happening, even if that friend didn't drink anything.

"Tennessee’s Partner took the loss of his wife simply and seriously, as was his fashion.

Thar—I told you so!—thar he is—coming this way, too—all by himself, sober, and his face a-shining. Tennessee! Pardner!” These actions show care and respect for one another, and thus their friendship blooms from these kind actions of genuine empathy. And so it develops the theme of friendship and loyalty by showing how the companionship of true friendships can strengthen a person, allowing difficult and confusing moments to be taken with more ease and comfort. True friendships as such promote care and concern for each other and this is evident at the end of the text when friends are afraid that one of them will fall from the hill because he is drunk and so they seek him out to prevent this accident from happening, even if that friend didn't drink anything.

(Types of Leaves)
All plants have leaves. However, some leaves look alike while others look very different. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes and can be flat, smooth, or even pointy. Deciduous, which means “tending to fall off,” plants have flat leaves that can be large or small, and rounded or jagged. These leaves change color during autumn months and fall off. They grow again every spring. Coniferous plants, on the other hand, are known as evergreen plants. They have needles which stay green all year round. These needles may fall off from time to time, but the plants do not lose them all at once. Even though they may look different, all leaves use light and air to make food.

Questions:
1. What do all leaves have in common?      
2. Explain the importance of the term “deciduous” when used to describe that particular type of leaf. 

3. What can you infer about coniferous plants? 

4. Rewrite the title of the text to show the main idea of the information given. ​

Answers

Answer:

There is a waxy coating or a cuticle in the conifers to seal the water in and help the leaves survive longer. While conifers grow long-lasting leaves, deciduous trees invest in growing more leaf area to absorb as much sun when in season. By examining the color, size, and shape of needles, you will be able to identify the type of evergreen tree

What is Project?

A project is described as a series of tasks that must be finished in order to achieve a specific result.

The Project Management Institute (PMI) defines a project as "any temporary undertaking having a clear beginning and finish." It can be maintained by a single person or hundreds of people, depending on how complex it is.

An established beginning and end date - Although some initiatives persist for several years, they cannot continue indefinitely. It must have a distinct beginning, a conclusive finale, and a summary of all that transpires in between.
