Read the excerpt from My Story. She took me up a flight of stairs (the cells were on the second level), through a door covered with iron mesh, and along a dimly lighted corridor. She placed me in an empty dark cell and slammed the door closed. She walked a few steps away, but then she turned around and came back. She said, "There are two girls around the other side, and if you want to go over there with them instead of being in a cell by yourself, I will take you over there.” I told her that it didn’t matter, but she said, "Let’s go around there, and then you won’t have to be in a cell alone.” It was her way of being nice. It didn’t make me feel any better. How does Rosa Parks help the reader understand her emotions in this excerpt? by describing in detail the order of what happened to her by comparing her feelings to those of other prisoners she met by sharing the exact dimensions of the prison cell she was put in by explaining how her feelings were expressed as pain in her body
Jake, brave, pitiful, and older than his years, gazed down at his starving family. His mother had passed on a few months ago, and her dying wish was that the family stay together. Jake knew the foster system; it was unlikely that they could all stay together, especially with his track record with the law. Yet, he knew that they would not survive long without more food and money. He felt torn between fulfilling his promise to his mother and that other promise he made, the promise to himself. He had vowed to change his life when his mother was diagnosed with cancer. Stealing would fulfill her promise (as long as he didn't get caught) but break the promise to himself that made him a new man. This new man cared for his siblings; what would happen to his family if he became a thief?

Answer:
3.
Explanation:
The quote from the Benjamin Franklin's autobiography suggest that the main motivation behind building the library was to improve the lives of his countrymen.
Benjamin Franklin was a major proponent of education and reading, thus establishing a Library Company in 1731 (as written in Franklin's biography).
The excerpt from Franklin's autobiography describes the true purpose of building the library. It was for the betterment of his fellowmen. He writes that after people started reading and educating themselves even the most common tradesmen and farmers attained intelligence as the other gentlemen of the country.
Therefore, option 3 is correct.
When it comes to poetry, I have found that the reading approach can really help you understand complicated phrases or metaphors. When listening to a poem, the narrator can help paint the picture the author was originally trying to create. However, when you can feel the paper, follow the words, use your own voice to profess each line- you can understand the subliminal meaning in many ways rather than one. One way is never the only way, otherwise, poetry wouldn't exist. Poetry isn't always understood, which is why it can mean many different things to many different people.
