The tone at the beginning of Birthplace is shameful and disappointed. It reflects the way her mother felt when she gave birth to her and saw that she had a girl and not a boy. This point in the poem, however, radiates strength and reflects the narrator's want to fight against injustice. The line "I’ll peel from the wall that ashamed look of my mother" says that she is no longer ashamed of herself for being born a certain way. She's saying that when she returns to her birthplace, she won't see it as the place where her mother's greatest disappointment was born. It is now a place where a strong woman was born.

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Research related to the popular use of social media in Egypt.

A statistic supporting the claim that social media use in Egypt is not widespread.

Widespread testimony about how social media use has changed in Egypt.

Explanation:

These are the three options that explain the types of evidence that the authors used in this excerpt.

First, the authors talk about the popular use of social media in Egypt when they argue that the Pew Research Center's Global Attitudes Project has looked at this information.

Second, the authors employ a statistic that supports the fact that social media is not widespread when they say that 65% of people do not use the Internet.

Finally, the authors use widespread testimony when they argue that most people who are online use social media to learn about the political situation in their country.

However, the authors never talk about how social media changed after the Arab Spring.
