Which narrative technique would help develop the relationship between the narrator and the mother? (1) I had heard about this—the frustrating buildup of exhaust and screeches and blaring horns, the people lined up in restrictive, never-ending lines as if waiting to enter an amusement park full of exhilarating rides and overpriced souvenirs. (2) But we were not waiting on anything of the sort, or even remotely of the sort. (3) We were simply waiting to go home from our jobs in this stop-and-go traffic. (4) I had recently applied for my first job, and this was the thanks I had received.
(5) When I arrived home, Mom asked about my day, but the smile that accompanied her questioning was neither of delight nor of curiosity; it was a smile that was waiting patiently for me to unload my frustrations, a smile of particular expectations and cruel intentions of self-satisfaction. (6) But I did not unload or give in. (7) I remarked with a matching smile that my day had been wonderful, rewarding, and surprisingly educational. (8) Mom's smile turned to a look of astonishment, but I did not feed her any more lies.
(9) I walked upstairs to my room with a steady pace, not looking back. (10) I lay on my bed, that I had obviously outgrown, and relished in the pride that my determination and optimistic attitude had given me.

Which two parts of this excerpt from mary shelley’s frankenstein reveals information about the setting? (it was on a dreary night of november that i beheld the accomplishment of my toils.) with an anxiety that almost amounted to agony, (i collected the instruments of life around me, that i might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. it was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out) when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, i saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs. (how can i describe my emotions at this catastrophe), or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care i had endeavored to form? his limbs were in proportion, and i had selected his features as beautiful. beautiful! great god! (his yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness; ) but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same color as the dun-white sockets in which they were set, his shriveled complexion and straight black lips.

In a 10-12 sentence response-style paragraph, explore the degree to which you agree or disagree with faulkner’s message. “i believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. he is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. the poet's, the writer's, duty is to write about these things. it is his privilege to man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. the poet's voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to him endure and prevail” (faulkner 773-775).
