Of what story can you show the paragraph??
The correct answer is 2. "First class!" my mother exclaimed, with an intake of breath. "How did you end up there?"
...
Explanation:
In excerpt two, there is a clear contrast between the mother of Hemma (female main character and narrator) who belongs to a middle or low socioeconomic status and the parents of the male character Kaushik. This is shown by the reaction of the mother of Hemma who is shocked by the extravagance of flying in first class. This is shown in "First class!... How did you end up there?" that shows the surprise of the mother and the answer of the father in "It could become a terrible habit" that shows how proud he is of this event. Thus, this excerpt shows the diversity within socioeconomic status by explaining the shock and surprise of Hemma mother to the fact another family flew in first class.
Question: How is a gang like a social club or family?
Answer: Gangs protect, support, and care for each other. If you are ever in a tight spot, your brotherhood/sisterhood gang will always find ways to save you. Gangs will keep their mouth shut or guard you to keep you out of trouble. They are strictly loyal and they would never bring you down. Like a brother/sister, gangs would literally fight/beat someone up who hurt or bully you. In the "family" of the gang, anyone is expendable. "Loyalty" is demonstrated through the street code of "don't snitch" or inform. When a gang member is incarcerated, his so called-family is not likely to be at the ready to assist him, help his mother, or look out for his little brother.
