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.
Good satire that is relevant today has relevance anytime.
Odysseus told Penelope that because when Telemachus was able to grow facial hair it meant that he was becoming a man and that many years had passed, meaning he probably was dead. As for the disguise part, I suppose it was because beards cover a large portion of the face and make you look tougher, more masculine, and gruff.<span />
Answer:
The receptionist should ask how old Tajpreet is. This is because people who are going to book a hotel are required to be a minimum age.
Explanation:
Tajpreet will not be able to book the hotel if she does not have a minimum age required by law. This minimum age may vary in each region and in each hotel.
In addition, it is necessary that her friends who will be staying at the hotel have an authorization for this, if they are minors.
All this information must be given by the receptionist, when Tajpreet tries to book the suite.
