Sandra Cisneros’ Eleven

cardinal or One hundred and Two? Sandra Cisneros short story eleven describes a young girl that is at a loss for address when her teacher embarrasses her in front of the class. How does Rachel convey her feelings on Mrs. Prices authority? Rachel says in the third paragraph that she wishes she was one hundred and two instead of eleven and in saying so she thinks that if she was that be on she would yield known the words to answer Mrs. Price when she made her put on the ugly sweater that was not hers at all.She adds the two to the hundred as it makes the impression that one hundred is normal old but by adding the two she would be really old and know what to say. We move on and find that Rachel has a very difficult time dealing with the viscous fact that Mrs. Price is forcing her to put on the red cottage cease smelling sweater and instead of standing up for herself she puts her head blue and starts to cry, she thinks about her school friends like Sylvia Saldivar who she says i s stupid but will in all likelihood tease her in the playground about the sweater.Rachel calms herself down with the thought of her parents delay for her at fireside with her birthday cake and candles and her papa coming home to sing happy birthday, To summarize we find that on one hired hand Rachel is a very mature girl that talks about age in a very distinct manner and on the separate hand she has a very passionate way of describing her feelings and the situation that she is in.
