They caught me. My father was beaten to near death. Some of them were students, whose parents were peasants. Some of them were teachers, who used to be his best friends. They had tasted the carp.

"The Carp," sixth stanza, Yun Wang

In the stanza above, what does Wang use the symbol of the carp to illustrate?

Explanation:

 In this stanza the tent represents pain. The kind of pain caused to the author's father by the fact that his former friends were now beating him almost to death.

This carp is what the author uses as a symbol of this friendship, since everyone had eaten from it at some point, when they were all friends.

That is why the author emphasizes this with the phrase "They had tasted the carp.", Wanting to show how painful this moment was now.

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.

the aesthetic impact is that moment when you are relating spatially to the target. the "ai" occurs when you have an impression that includes both you and the target and is usually a spatial relationship.
