Read this passage from Dragonwings by Laurence Yep. I had been in the demon land for only ten months, so it would have been about January of the demons' year 1904, when we met Mr. Alger. I remember it was a gray, wintry day. We were making the rounds when we saw one of the horseless carriages stranded by the sidewalk and a demon in a big overcoat standing beside it. His driving cap was pushed back, and he was scratching his forehead in a puzzled way. The metal hood on the front of the horseless had been folded back on top so you could see into its innards.

How does the description of the day as gray and wintry emphasize the narrator’s feelings about life in the new country

The day is cold and uninviting, like the people and their cities.
The color of the day is the same as that of the car’s machinery.
The winter day gives promise of a new beginning in the future.
The cloudy day reflects the narrator’s negative thoughts.

The description of the day as gray and wintry emphasize the narrator’s feelings about life in the new country in a sense that the day is cold and uninviting, like the people and their cities.

Option A.

Explanation:

'Dragonwings' is a story about a Chinese family, their immigration to America, and how racial discrimination in America makes their life difficult. From the above mentioned excerpt, we can figure out that the narrator's life in the new country in not as welcoming as he thought it would be. The people over there are uninviting

simply because the narrator is Chinese. The description of the day relates to the narrator's feelings regarding the people of new country.

given the fact that the question is about the detail that best support the idea that oppressive leaders use   propaganda to achieve thir goals,   the first option does not refer to any kind of propaganda, since it only tells about that the milk and the windfall apple should be reserved for the pigs. in the second option, that is, "snowball and napoleon sent out flights of pigeons whose instructions were to mingle with the animals on the neighbouring farms, tell them the story of the rebellion, and teach them the tune of "beasts of england". it can be identified that the oppressors make use of the propaganda, which is represented by the pigeons, and the information they have to tell other animals about what was happening in the farm in order to get their objectives. for that reason, the right answer is the second option, taking into account that the third option do not refer to propaganda since it only talks about that they did not want jones back. and, finally, the last option refers to the result of the given news, but it does not mean about the propaganda they used to achieve their goals.
