Question

Which best explains how the image communicates the viewpoint that children who live in poverty often face other health risks, as well?

A- The use of black and white shows the depressing nature of children's lives

B- The setting distracts the eye from the children's dirty faces and clothing

C- The children's clothing styles suggest that the photo was taken a long time ago

D- The lack of color causes the viewer to take note of the children's dirty faces and bare feet

Answer 1

Personally,I think it would be D.

Answer 2

The fourth alternative is correct (D).

Like language and writing, the image is also considered a code of communication. In this photo, we see two children in situations of apparent vulnerability, with bare feet and dirty body, including the face. This is peceptível even with the lack of color of the photo.

Thus, this image suggests an expression of poverty. Children are vulnerable, fully dependent on adults and should receive appropriate health care and nutritional support to make their development effective and dignified. Unfortunately, this is not the reality of many children, especially in underdeveloped countries where people's incomes are low and access to information and education is precarious.
