Read the passage from "marriage is a private affair" by chinua achebe.
the prejudice against nnaemeka’s marriage was not confined to his little village. in lagos, especially among his people who worked there, it showed itself in a different way. their women, when they met at their village meeting, were not hostile to nene. rather, they paid her such excessive deference as to make her feel she was not one of them. but as time went on, nene gradually broke through some of this prejudice and even began to make friends among them. slowly and grudgingly they began to admit that she kept her home much better than most of them.
what cultural value is revealed through the women's actions toward nene? they distrust nene because she has agreed to an arranged marriage. they value strong housekeeping skills. they admire nene for choosing her own husband. they show deference to her because her tribe is more powerful than theirs.

Read the excerpt from hemingway’s a farewell to arms. we parked the cars beyond the brickyard. the ovens and some deep holes had been equipped as dressing stations. there were three doctors that i knew. i talked with the major and learned that when it should start and our cars should be loaded we would drive them back along the screened road and up to the main road along the ridge where there would be a post and other cars to clear them. which best describes hemingway’s style of writing in the excerpt? straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader long-winded and offering far too much information to the reader overly complicated, making it difficult to interpret and understand the text effortless and uncomplicated, with little meaning for the reader to interpret
