Bleeding Kansas, Bloody Kansas or the Border War was a series of violent civil confrontations in the United States between 1854 and 1861 which emerged from a political and ideological debate over the legality of slavery in the proposed state of Kansas.
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from “Speaking Arabic.”
At a neighborhood fair in Texas, somewhere between the German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican Gorditas booth, I overheard a young man say to his friend, “I wish I had a heritage. Sometimes I feel—so lonely for one.” And the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head.
Which best explains how Nye’s text structure helps establish her voice in the excerpt?
a) Nye relates a story about something she heard to emphasize the point she wants to make about heritage.
b) Nye compares her experience to a stranger’s experience to express her ideas about the importance of heritage.
c) Nye lists food booths at a neighborhood fair in Texas to make a statement about diverse foods in America.
d) Nye uses a cause-and-effect format to show how heritage can limit a person’s cultural diversity.
Answer:
a) Nye relates a story about something she heard to emphasize the point she wants to make about heritage.
Explanation:
In "Speaking Arabic", author Naomi Shihab Nye develops the theme of heritage. As we can see, she mentions something she overheard a man say to do so. This American man does not understand and, for that reason, does not value his own heritage. He says he wishes he had a heritage, not being able to look around and realize how diverse his country is. She goes ahead to mention the trees to show how heritage is all around him, how he would certainly be able to see it if he truly wanted to.
