Answer:

She is angry about an unjust punishment and finds satisfaction in taking out her frustrations on the turnips.

Explanation:

During the school days of Zitkala-Sa who was a girl Indian, she was unable to speak English in her early days in school which affected her communication and understanding. Later on, in her school life, she was able to speak broken English which gives her a little bit of understanding and ability to communicate better which later resulted in her being mischievous thereby resulting in a spirit of anger and revenge.

However, there was a day she was punished for an offense she felt was needless for any form of punishment. In carrying out the punishment, Zitkala-Sa mashes the turnips with full anger in protest against the unjust punishment melted to her.

SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!! FIRST ONE TO ANSWER CORRECTLY GETS A BRAINLIEST ANSWERWhich sentence uses a verb that agrees wit
Dafna11 [192]
Hello, so the verb is the action and the compound subject is going to be our second subject in the sentence. To distinguish whether it is corresponding or not we are going to make sure that it is in the right tense, person, etc.
So lets look at our options
Our first sentence has the first subject plural but not the second subject, and an improper use of the verb making this sentence grammatically incorrect.
Our second sentence the verb and compound correspond correctly so no mistakes here.
The third sentence we are distinguishing whether we use begun or began. Began is past tense and begun is past participle.
The last sentence is grammatically incorrect because the action/verb 'stores' does not correspond with our compound subject.
So that leaves us with the answer being B.
I hope I helped! If you have any other questions or would like further explanation please let me know! :)
