Will give choose the answer. (the white umbrella) review the detail. miss crosman praises eugenie's piano skills. which best explains how this action develops the theme? a: it create the image that eugenie is perfect. b: it shows that miss crosman is a good piano teacher. c: it reveals that eugenie is a fake. d: it shows that miss crosman is overly excitable.

My answer is option A: It helps create the image that Eugenie is perfect.

The correct answer is option A: "It helps create the image that Eugenie is perfect". The short story "The White Umbrella" by Gish Jen tells the story of a young girl that is ashamed of her working mother and praises her piano teacher: Eugenie Roberts. The fact that Eugenie has great piano skills help to create the idea that she is perfect, in contrast to the young girl's mother.

i have read the novel roll of thunder hear my cry by mildred d. taylor.

1. this isn't like any other story i've read or watched because it is about a black family in mississippi right after slavery in the u.s. had become illegal. most of the novels i have read were about slavery. another point is that the author of the novel used symbolism in a way i haven't seen before. for example she uses thunder as something negative meaning something bad will happen. but by the end of the novel, she made thunder a good thing.

2.   one character that changed during the novel was stacey. stacey is the eldest child of the black logan family. around the begging of the novel stacey was avoiding the white boy jeremy simms. he had a dislike for jeremy's family. but at the end of the novel stacey began to like jeremy.

3. the author starts the novel with the problem that the children of the logan family have to avoid the white kid school bus while walking to school.

d) sarah's natural reaction to being accepted into college suggests that she has no other dreams.
