Read the excerpt from “A Visit from the Goon Squad.” Scotty climbed onto the platform and sat on the stool. Without a glance at

the audience or a word of introduction, he began to play “I Am a Little Lamb,” a tune whose childishness was belied by the twanging filigree of his slide guitar, its gushy metallic complexity. He followed that with “Goats Like Oats” and “A Little Tree Is Just Like Me.” The amplification was fine and powerful enough to eclipse the chopper throb and deliver the sound even to the distant reaches of the crowd, where it disappeared between buildings. Alex listened in a sort of cringe, expecting a roar of rejection from these thousands he’d managed secretly to assemble, whose goodwill had already been taxed by the long wait. But it didn’t happen; the pointers, who already knew these songs, clapped and screeched their approval, and the adults seemed intrigued, attuned to double meanings and hidden layers, which were easy to find. Which of the following choices best describes the structure used in this excerpt? Multiple switches are used between the action and commentary. A frame story is used to link the different stories together. Sequential order is used to present the events in the order they occur. Flashbacks are used to break with the chronological order of the storyline.

Hey there!

Notice in the story how the events of a single story are told in the order that they happened. Scotty sat down on the stool, began to play "I Am a Little Lamb," then <span>“Goats Like Oats” and “A Little Tree Is Just Like Me,” then the audience reacted to the set positively. No flashbacks are utilized and no other stories are being told during the excerpt besides the one about Scotty's set. 

Based on this, your answer will be the second option, "</span><span>Sequential order is used to present the events in the order they occur". 

Hope this helped you out! :-) </span>

Margarita [4]

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

This is a passage from a book<em> Black Girl</em> which is written by Ousmane Sembène.  The story follows a young Senegalese girl who started to work for a rich French family in Antibes. She expected to be a nanny and have a good life, but it turned out that they wanted her as a servant and treated her very harsh.

 Reading this text, we see that Madame is sick of doing everything alone, so she hires a maid, a girl called Diouana who has African roots. She is given a good salary, some old clothes and shoes she can still use.

Answer A is not true, because Madame is not resentful, she wanted help and she got it.

Answer B - although she might not much about France we can not conclude that from this passage

Answer C - this behavior of Diouana is not mentioned in the text

Answer D is correct - she doesn't treat Diouana respectfully, if she really wanted to give her clothes, she would have given her new clothes, not the used one, in this way she establishes her social dominance. So, she gives her high salary in purpose to bribe her into coming to France, so she could have free time.
