Things Fall Apart - Part 2 Review

In the Ibo tradition, the motherland is seen as a place of

• strength

• refuge

• weakness

• punishment

Uchendu's attitude toward Okonkwo is one of

• shame

• pride

• regret

• acceptance

The phrase "metallic and thirsty clap" contains an example of

• metaphor

• allegory

• hyperbole

• simile

As he begins life among his mother's people, Okonkwo is

• angry and vengeful

• powerless and ostracized

• unenthusiastic and defeated

• humble and grateful

The "ceremony of confession" places a great emphasis on

• a man's allegiance

• a bride's purity

• a woman's importance

• a criminal's punishment

Uchendu's claim that, "Even a man's motherland is strange to him nowadays," is supported by the fact that

• he has never met Okonkwo before

• the news of Abame's destruction has not reached Mbanta

• Amikwu's bride is from Umuofia

• Nwoye has left to become a Christian

 

Okonkwo at first believes the white man is a/n

• albino

• god

• leper

• spirit

The Oracle compared the white men to

• palm wine

• iron horses

• locusts

• Mother Kite

The white men and their followers most likely destroyed Abame

• to get their iron horse back

• because they could not understand the Ibo language

• to avenge a death

• for disobeying them

Uchendu says the men of Abame were fools because

• they did not arm themselves properly

• they did not know enough about the man to justify killing him

• he has heard stories about white men with powerful guns

• everyone knows white men are an abomination
