Write a thesis statement in response to the following prompt.

Prompt: Read the letter to the editor "I, Too, Have a Dream." How does the writer use structure and language to persuade her readers and support her feelings about immigration?

Dear Editor,

I have never taken the time to write a letter to the editor, but something happened that lit a fire in me. Last week, as my best friend Areliss and I headed to class, a group of college protesters blocked our path. Their signs read "GO HOME" and "ILLEGALS LEAVE." They shouted, "Send them home!" These protesters couldn't have known what Areliss felt as they shouted and waved pamphlets in our faces like tattered flags. But, I know their words were bullets to Areliss's heart. I wanted to fire back to the protestors: Where are your ancestors from?

Areliss came to the United States illegally, but she didn't do it intentionally. She was a baby. Her parents, seeking a better life, failed to follow the established immigration procedure, and they slipped into our country undetected. Once here, they raised Areliss, who would grow up never knowing any other home but America.

Under DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), Areliss has been granted the temporary opportunity to remain here while she completes her college education. DACA ensures, at least for a while, that she will not be deported to a country she has never visited in her entire life.

The term "DREAMers" refers to an act that would have protected these immigrant children if they attended college or served in the military. The DREAM Act did not pass, but its name has remained. DACA recipients have a dream: they dream that their lifelong contribution to the United States will one day be recognized, and they will be permitted to stay in the country they have always called home.

Now, DACA is ending. Those who oppose DACA say it encourages illegal activity, weakens our borders, and goes against the Constitution. I understand their concerns. In an era of heightened security, we must do our utmost to keep this great nation safe. That includes establishing a healthy monitoring system for immigration.

But, those who oppose DACA, who wield protest signs and who want to build walls, have never felt the dreaded doom of deportation. They forget that our long and colorful history has been built by many immigrants—including the immigrants who fought for and founded our country. They forget that Lady Liberty stands as a beacon, asking for the tired, the poor, and the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. We have a responsibility to them.

To send DREAMers away is to deny that responsibility. Programs like DACA exist to keep the American dream alive.

Yes, Areliss is a DREAMer. But I, too, have a dream. My dream is that DACA will be reinstated. My dream is that Areliss will be invited to stay in the country she has known as home since she was a baby and live out her dreams in the country she loves.

Sincerely,

Brittany Taylor

Answers

Answer:

In Brittany Taylor's letter to the editor, “I, Too, Have a Dream”, she uses some figurative language. She used Metaphors and Personification. She makes her ideas by including a problem and solution to persuade her audience to support reinstating DACA. Brittany Taylor's letter also says that she used real life experience and federal documents such as the DACA to support the fact that deportation is cruel.

Explanation:

I don't know if it's right but here is the answer I put in my test. :)

I guarantee you you'll get an easy A from this. A thesis statement should have only one sentence. Not multiple like the person above me. A better thesis statement would be:

Answer: "In Brittany Taylor's letter “I, Too, Have a Dream”, she uses metaphors, personification and problem/solution structure to show her support regarding DACA."

Reminder- don't forget to use your own words. Don't just copy word for word from my sentence.

Its traditional Englishness combines with greasy stainless steel and glass. It is populated by mostly pale young men with longish hair. Several older men are ruddy complexioned and sport large mustaches. Four or five are watching a chess game. Two men are playing darts. The conversation is loud and there is often laughter. But there is something unsavory about these people. A look of leanness and poverty. They seem inbred and somehow sullen. We establish the types and the general level of noise in the room. The door opens revealing David and Jack. There is dead silence and all are staring in a not friendly way at the two boys who are made uncomfortable by all the strange attention. They give each other a "what?" look, then turn to the assembled populace.

Read the two passages above. They are both descriptions from a movie script but the first one has had all of the descriptive and sensory language removed. Discuss how the second one helps the reader visualize the scene.

Answers

Answer:

The second helps the reader visualize the seen because in real life, when we are going about our day, there is the specific things, for lack of better words, about it that we notice. When we don't read those descriptions it doesn't feel as realistic. A reader wants to feel as if they are there. Without the full details, it becomes very hard to create that visual.

What is the figurative language

Answers

Answer:

The figurative language that can be found in the passage is a simile.

Explanation:

A simile is a type of figurative language used to make comparisons between two different things. The purpose is to say those things have some characteristic in common. Similes need support words to make the comparison, such as "like" and "as". An example of simile would be: She has eyes as deep lakes. - Because her eyes are blue they are being compared to lakes.

Similes can also use "as... as", which is precisely what we have in "as dead as a doornail" in the passage. This expression is used to emphasize death. If you say someone was as dead as a doornail, you mean they were certainly dead, "very dead", so to speak.
