Answer and Explanation:
Since the Coronavirus arrived in my community, me and people my age, we started going to the houses where the elderly lived alone, asking if they needed us to buy something from the market or the pharmacy for them. We did this, because the elderly are more vulnerable to coronavirus and it was extremely dangerous for them to go to the market, so we made ourselves available to practice this act of solidarity and help these people. With that I was able to perceive a strong presence of "bayanihan" in my community, since we were working in the name of solidarity and in unity.

Answer:
Eric Klinenberg, assistant professor of sociology at New York University (formally of Northwestern University), wrote "Heat Wave: A Social Autopsy of Disaster in Chicago" in order to further investigate the devastating Chicago heat wave of 1995. From July 13h to July 20th, the heat led to over 700 deaths and thousands being hospitalized due to heat related illness. Following the catastrophe, there have been numerous medical, meteorological, and epidemiological studies done examining the reasons for the historic mortality rate, but none seemed to focus on the on underlying issues such as social etiology. In "Heat Wave", Klinenberg, a Chicago native, takes his fascination with the social possibilities surrounding the event to greater depths.…show more content…
Here, the key health and support services of the governmental organization, the police and fire departments, include officers who are rarely committed to "soft service" work. And lastly, in chapter 5 "The Spectacular City," Klinenberg speaks about media's involvement during that time. He investigates and interviews journalists, editors, and news companies, discussing the angles at which the disaster was portrayed and why this may be. More importantly, this chapter focuses on the cultural "reframing" of the actually news and information of the heat wave. He says that Chicago used its public relations tools to deny there was a disaster and then to claim it was a natural and unpreventable one. They defended the government's role while masking the social roots of the high mortality rates during the heat wave. I originally chose this book because the brief summary given to us in class had caused me to become more interested Klinenberg's findings throughout his extensive research. This book proved to correlate directly with many of the ideas we discussed in class.

The part of the plot that is revealed in this excerpt is:
C) a resolution in which the Lins have become the hosts.
Explanation:
The excerpt we are analyzing here belongs to the short story "The All-American Slurp", by Lensey Namioka. <u>The narrator is a girl from the Lin family, from China.</u> The Lins have moved to the U.S. and are struggling to adjust themselves to the completely different culture they now find themselves immersed in. <u>They are invited to dine at the Gleasons', but their Chinese eating etiquette is perceived as rude by the American characters. The narrator is embarrassed at this moment as well as others, seeing her family as inadequate. </u>
<u>However, once the Gleasons become the guests and the Lins become the hosts, we are presented with a resolution to that conflict. The narrator realizes her family is not inadequate.</u><u> Now, the Gleasons are the ones struggling to eat the Chinese meal. That does not make them inferior, the same way the Lins are also not inferior in any manner. They simply come from different backgrounds, having distinct habits and behaviors.</u>
