Answer:

B). The first excerpt uses facts and statistics, and the second excerpt is told as a story.

Explanation:

The first excerpt from 'Children of the Drug Wars' <u>employs factual and statistical information that helps the author to serve her purpose of educating the readers about the impact of violence(led by wars) on children</u>. It also informs them regarding the increase in percentage of asylum claims as the violence left the children mentally distorted and it is this reason made around 58% to flee. While the second excerpt from 'Enrique's Journey' uses a narrative style to portray the hardships faced by Enrique to reconcile with his mother('jams his body, jumps off, etc.) through which the audience can connect themselves emotionally and elicit intended response. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

CAN SOMEONE ACTUALLY HELP ME 55 POINTS

sattari [20]

Answer:

I do believe that people can choose to be happy. While it might be difficult for some, I think everyone can choose happiness. A prime example of this can be found in an excerpt from the diary of Anne Frank. She says "Think of all the beauty that's still left in and around you and be happy." Anne Frank wrote this quote during the horrible conditions that took place during the holocaust. During this time it would have been very hard for most people to remain happy. Despite these odds, she was able to find joy in her surroundings and within herself. For this reason, I believe that people can choose to be happy.

Hope this helps :)
