Answer:

c. any rough urban area that has a great deal of poverty and crime

Explanation:

"The Street" as used in this context is usually used to describe a poor ghetto-like area where all manner of crime are carried out. It is regarded as a breeding place for criminals. From the above excerpt, we can gather that professional criminals who are never easily caught and who easily get information at their fingertips are found in the Street.

"The Leak" is a detective tale by Jacques Futrelle. His lead investigator is Professor Augustus S.F.X. Van Dusen who is known as The Thinking Machine. Professor Dusen comes in to assist a businessman who is suffering the risk of his high-valued deals because of the presence of a spy in his office. His secrets seem to be exposed to the unknown spy thereby making him vulnerable.

Jacques Futrelle was an American who was very known for journalism and mystery writing. Also, he is well-known for writing detective stories. Futrelle passed away during the sinking of the RMS Titanic.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

D. Jeremiah wants to join the soccer program.

Explanation:

<em>Outcast United </em>by Warren St. John tells the story of Luma al-Mufleh, a Jordanian national who came to the United States to escape her country's strict regulations on girls. Later, she would become a soccer coach for the Fugees, a football club she founded for the refugee kids in and around Clarkston, Georgia.

The given excerpt is about the Ziaty family who had come from Liberia to escape the civil war. But due to her inability to feel safe, the mother Beatrice Ziaty ordered her kids to not venture out of the house ever. So, the three kids were all cooped up in the house all day. The start of the football program excites the kids, especially Jeremiah who was eager to be part of the free program. Moreover, he was eager to be going out of the house to do what he loves best. Thus, we can conclude that Jeremiah wants to be part of the soccer program.
