We had lunch: sandwiches, potato chips, and iced tea. Carolyn and her mother talked mostly about neighbors and the congregation

at the Japanese Methodist Church in West Fresno. Her father, who was in khaki work clothes, excused himself with a wave that was almost a salute and went outside. I heard a truck start, a dog bark, and the truck rattle away.
How does Soto build a central idea of his story in the excerpt?
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is strange to him, Soto supports the idea that culture causes conflict between people. 
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is boring to him, Soto supports the idea that people from different cultures do not share interests.
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is familiar to him, Soto supports the idea that people from different cultures can also share a culture. 
By showing how Carolyn’s family lives in a way that is similar to him, Soto supports the idea that there are very few differences among cultures.

Read the poem "Grass" and answer the question that follows.
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The phrase suggests that people quickly forget the past.

Explanation:

We can immediately strike out "The phrase stresses that grass needs time to do its work." since it is clear that there is a deeper meaning to the poem. We can strike out "The phrase implies that time helps people heal their emotional wounds. " under the explaination that there is no emotional aspect to the poem. It is from the grass's POV. There have been no emotional connections said outright to allow us to draw this conclusion. Finally, we can strike "The phrase describes the intervals between the wars. " Although places such as Austerlitz, Waterloo, Gettysburg, Ypres, and Verdun are mentioned, it doesn't seem as though this is what the poem is mainly about. It is about how the grass is working for years and years. It can be assumed that as many people forget about grass, people can quickly forget the past.
