Sorry for asking a lot of questions. But what can I write as an example of realism in A a Raisin in the Sun I'm having trouble finding an example of it

Answer 1

You're not asking too many questions!
There are a lot of realistic statements. Look at Walter Lee's frustration about opening other people's doors and driving his boss around in HIS limousine. Look at many of Mama's speeches. And keep in mind, or try to see, that it is not just in the words and speeches that hopefulness, hopelessness and realism are expressed. Sometimes it is in the situations and the interactions. Look at the situation that Travis sleeps in the living room (another of Walter Lee's frustrations). It's in a speech, but is reality. So are the cockroaches.

And, as I say below, hopelessness is Ruth's problem, although she never really says it out loud. When Walter Lee is dreaming about the liquor store, she says,, "Eat your eggs" as if his dream isn't worth the blather. And she knows they have no room and can't afford another child. That's reality as she sees it and her hopelessness is in giving a down payment to an abortionist. Beneatha, Mama and Walter Lee have dreams, Ruth does not.
