Answer: C. sat always at my right hand.

Explanation:

Robinson Crusoe is the protagonist of Daniel Defoe's novel of the same name (1719).

In this particular excerpt, Crusoe describes his pets and their habits. His parrot Poll is the only one who talks to him, his dog always sits at his right hand, and the two cats sit on the two opposite sides of the table. The way he talks about his pets indicates that he is preoccupied with mastery. This is evident because his dog is always beside him, which is Crusoe's way to establish authority and have everything under control. He is the dog's master, and the dog must obey him.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

It indicates that the gangsters are looking for vulnerable people.

It supports the idea that the gangsters are involved in criminal activities.

Explanation:

In Sonia Nazario's "Enrique's Journey", the protagonist Enrique left home on a quest to find his real mother who had left him to work in America. Feeling a sense of abandonment from his mother Lourdes, leaving him in Honduras, and his beloved uncle's death compelled him to try to reunite with his mother no matter what, thus his journey.

The given passage is from the chapter "Staying Awake" where Enrique along with others were atop the moving train trying to get to America. The excerpt reveals how those on the roof of the trains were targeted by the gangsters operating around the area. The vulnerable people end up being the target of these gangsters who are involved in illegal criminal activities, with the "<em>forgiving</em>" nature of the police in Chiapas. The author's use of the word "prowl" supports the dangerous manner in which these gangsters are involved, leading further to the suffering of others.
