Explanation:
In the last section of her essay, the author describes how her mother polished her grandmother's shoes on the day she had to a nursing home. The grandmother "left her house walking, supported by her children, carrying her pocket book, and wearing her polished black shoes." Explain why this story is significant to the author.
Story: Growing Up Asian in America
Answer:
This story is significant for the author because he can see the family uniting in taking his grandmother, lined up and tidy, to the nursing home, being supported by those she supported, her children.
Explanation:
"Growing Up Asian in America" is reinforcing the role of the family in establishing self-recognition in a culture and in a people. This shows how the family has an important weight in each person's life, especially at the moment, when each individual is more fragile. This family concept is touching for the author when he sees the whole family helping to take his grandmother to a nursing home. The grandmother supported the children when they needed it and now it is her turn to receive their support.
Answer:
This story is significant to the author because during it she saw how her mother and relatives worked in unison to help and provide support for her grandmother who lived in her own home, but who also could no longer live alone. That is, they made sure she felt cared for and not forgotten, which must have made this transition in her life much easier to cope with. The text implies the author's grandmother perhaps accepted this change rather quickly and did not really resist as many other elderly people do. These people (from what I have heard) feel like they lose control over their lives and are abandoned by their children at these nursing homes, where they think that they only leave when they die. It is really quite sad when you think about it. However, this family made sure this women didn’t feel this way, and the author took note of it. Especially her mother's actions during this time, which truly conveyed her values and further helped to develop the the author’s description of her identity as a Japanese American women.
Explanation:
This is what I answered in my exam, I derived my answer from what I learned through out the essay on how the author ( Noda) viewed her mother and how this came to be in the section that was under "I am a Japanese American women". Her mother's actions in response to what was happening to Noda's grandmother really impacted Noda and on her perspective of Japanese women. So, well, she included this story in her essay, which also helped support one of her purposes ( her reason for writing), that is to reach acceptance with her own identity as a Japanese American woman. This is really important because at first Noda saw her mother as "a figure in whom I thought I saw all that I feared most in my self", which was fitting into the stereotype of Japanese people being only silent and passive.
I know its a long response, but I hope this helps you :)

Which word is a synonym of influential?
unmoving
useful
sick
powerful
the answer is powerful :)
Answer:
Powerful

Explanation:
Why is freedom of speech an important right??
Answer:
yes, it is
Explanation:
freedom of speech has become vital because, without freedom of speech, some people won’t be able to communicate effectively and even say a word when things are going wrong. Why freedom of expression suffers in some other countries might be due to their lack of cognizance of why freedom of speech is essential. It is the way of anything we do that drives us, so if a country doesn’t know why freedom of speech is vital, that country or land will fight the establishment of liberty. Freedom of speech is essential because it changes the narrative of how people feel when they want to express themselves in public and even to people in their immediate environment.
How about this?
Hope it's okay?
Answer:
Freedom of speech is a principle that supports the freedom of an individual or a community to articulate their opinions and ideas without fear of retaliation, censorship, or legal sanction.
It helps us to share our opinions without the fear of being opposed or stopped by any other force. It also promotes sharing of ideas and ideologies among persons. This allows us to discuss and chose the best decisions for our respective country.

How does the reading of the names add tension to the story?
Answer:
Adds and or creates characters
Explanation:
Answer:
Many reasons
Explanation:
When you are reading a story, having names gives the reader an indication of who is thinking what and doing what. It wouldn't be easy to read if it was always, "She went after the girl who was talking to her friend in the hallway. The girl who went after the girl who talked to her friend in the hallway was furious." It would be easier to read if it was; "Ahna went after Emily who was talking to her friend in the hallway. She was furious." It would get confusing after awhile of reading "she" and "him". We wouldn't have names for no reason. Having names is good to have and they are beautiful.
