Answer:
1) A nun looked at the narrator's house as if it were a terrible place to live.
2) She is the more carefree child, the one who has her own opinions.
- She is using the wild description of her hair to imply that she is also wild. It wouldn't be choice B, because that's too literal; and C and D don't make sense.
3) She feels like her family is holding her back from opportunities and experiences.
- If she had stopped with the balloon, it would have been a happy metaphor. But a balloon tied to an anchor? Can't fly, can't go anywhere with the anchor holding it down.
4) She and Nenny's laughter is loud and grabs the attention of anyone nearby.
- She's contrasting it with Rachel and Lucy. It's not orthodox, it's carefree and noisy.
5) She feels ashamed that she and Nenny have no money to buy anything.
- Nenny asks how much the music box is, but Gil doesn't even offer it because he knows they don't have any money. Esperanza knows, though.
6) She wishes she had a different name than Esperanza.
- The author is contrasting the two worlds, the hispanic and american, that they live between. Her name is hard to pronounce, and she connects it with sadness and longing.
