In paragraph 1 Anne writes, “...according to them, left the room in a huff. I was neither in a huff nor cross, but merely sad.” Based on how the word is used, what does the term cross mean?

The term 'cross' in reference to the language used by the author means 'angry' or 'annoyed.'

Explanation:

The given quote is taken from the memoir of Anne Frank, 'The Diary of A Young Girl.'

In her diary entry dated November 7, 1942, Anne writes about an incident when she was scolded by her mother and father for looking at Margot's book, of which illustrations amused her. She writes that because the illustrations of the book amused her, she picked up the book, when Margot left it.

Without much argument, Anne left the room, leaving the book back  in it's place. She writes that she left the room in a huff. The term 'cross' used in the given context means 'angry' or 'annoyed.' Anne asserts that she left the room not because she was huffy or angry (cross) but because she was hurt.

Therefore, the correct meaning of cross, in the given context, is 'angry' or 'annoyed.'

"everyday

use" was written by alice walker. this is a story about two sisters, dee

and maggie wanting to have the handmade quilt. maggie wants to use the thing

for its purpose, while dee appreciates it for being “her heritage”.   the quilt represents family heritage. it was

believed that only dedication and years of hard work can represent a  quilt. 

mama decided to give

the quilts to her less fortunate daughter, maggie because she believed that dee

could not hold the true meaning of their family heritage and   that she would not use the quilts for their

purpose. however, dee believed that maggie can’t appreciate the quilts just as

how she sees them, and she thought that the quilt will be put to “everyday use”

by maggie and within 5 years or so, the quilt will turn into a rag. in the story, dee strongly believed that maggie do not deserve the quilts.
