From part 2, what are TWO effects of the use of imagery in the excerpt below? Martha stayed where she was in the garden but put both hands out in front of her, awaiting whatever came. The flakes were massive, consistent and quick, as if the snow was not merely falling but being delivered, like manna, because people needed it.

1.The allusion to manna brings to mind the biblical Israelites lost in the desert and highlights Martha's lost and wandering state of mind.

2.Martha putting both hands before her creates an image of someone in adefensive position ready for a fight.

3.The comparison of the snow to manna shows that Martha believes that her needs will be met and she will survive.

4.The imagery of the snow flakes falling quickly and consistently conveys that Martha knows everything happens for a reason.

5.The garden is symbolic of purity and beginnings. Martha staying in the garden shows that she is unwilling to move on from her past
