After reading Magic Island by Cathy Song. Compare and contrast the image in the first stanza of the kite that the wind keeps “in the air above the trees” (line 8) and the image in the last stanza of the “black umbrella, / blooming like an ancient flower.” What might each image represent for the immigrant family?

The answer would be analytical reasoning.

The answer is actually b. explanation: lines that signify human-like characteristics: “a half a dozen kissed the eves”raindrops don’t usually ‘kiss’ anything, as it is a human action. lines that signify playfulness: “and made the gables laugh” a gable is the part of a wall that encloses a pitched roof, so it is certainly not living and cannot really laugh. this is a human characteristic and signifies playfulness.
