Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Many Harlemites viewed the club owners' act of "barring people of their own race" as unfair, since black musicians were in high demand in the clubs but could not enter as patrons. 
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

c. Barring people of their own race.

Explanation:

Langston Hughes' short essay/ story of "When the Negro was in Vogue" details his opinions of when Harlem used to be the property of the colored people. But now, more and more white people came at night, crowding their bars and cabarets after sundown. He points out that many Harlemites did not find the acts of club owners denying their own people, black people, admission in their bars as fair. Rather, it should be that they support and encourage the development of their own people instead of welcoming the whites. The blacks do not vocally say out that the whites' bars and places were never disturbed or overtaken by the blacks so why should they come into their town and mingle with them? But Hughes claims that "Negroes are practically never rude to  white people" so they silently act along with whatever the situation was.

Answers

The answer is c. He was tired and it was late; it had been a long day. The semi-colon helps distinguish the two separate parts. The part where it says "it had been a long day" doesn't make sense if added by a comma.

Read the sentence below:The mosquitoes buzzed in the air around my hair like a swarm of miniature assassins.

Which of the following correctly describes this sentence?

It uses a metaphor.
It has a positive connotation.
It has a negative connotation.
It uses an allusion.

Answers

I think its a metaphor

Answer: It has a negative connotation

Explanation:A simile makes a comparison using the words “like” or “as.” Example: The concert was so crowded, it felt like a million people were there. A metaphor makes the comparison directly, substituting one thing for another. Example: That test was a killer.

In this case "The mosquitoes buzzed in the air around my hair like a swarm of miniature assassins." is a simile so the answer above is not correct.

Negative connotation is the bad feeling or emotion that is connected to a word.

Positive connotation is the good feeling or emotion that is connected to a word.

In the sentence "The mosquitoes buzzed in the air around my hair like a swarm of miniature assassins." They are angry at the mosquitoes therefore they have a bad feeling in this sentence hence why this has a negative connotation.
