Read the excerpt from flannery o'connor's "the life you save may be your own."
the daughter could not see far in front of her and continued to play with her fingers. although the old woman lived ir
this desolate spot with only her daughter and she had never seen mr. shiftiet before, she could tell, even from a
distance, that he was a tramp and no one to be afraid of. his left coat sleeve was folded up to show there was only
half an arm in it and his gaunt figure listed slightly to the side as if the breeze were pushing him. he had on a black
town suit and a brown felt hat that was turned up in the front and down in the back and he carried a tin tool box by a
handle. he came on, at an amble, up her road, his face turned toward the sun which appeared to be balancing itself
on the peak of a small mountain.
what technique does o'connor use in the paragraph to create compelling characters?

Read the following excerpt from "dark tower" by claude mckay before you choose your answer. "we shall not always plant while others reap the golden increment of bursting fruit, nor always countenance, abject and mute, that lesser men should hold their brothers cheap; not everlastingly while others sleep shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute, not always bend to some more subtle brute. we were not made eternally to weep. the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark, white stars, is no less lovely being dark; and there are buds that cannot bloom at all in light, but crumple, piteous, and fall. so in the dark we hid the heart that bleeds, and wait, and tend our agonizing needs." in context, the expression "the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark,/ white stars, is no less lovely being dark; " is best interpreted as a. the light of the stars overpowers the black of night b. the black of night overpowers the light of the stars c. black and white contribute equally to the beauty of the night sky d. black and white continuously compete for prominence in the night sky
