I inferred you are referring to the Nigerian born writer Chimamanda Adichie's account found here (https://www.ted.com/talks/chimamanda_ngozi_adichie_the_danger_of_a_single_story?language=en).

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, in Adichie's talk she said referring to Fide, "the only thing my mother told me was that his family was very poor."

Later after she saw the basket fide's brother made she said "it had not occurred to me that anybody in his family could actually make something". This stereotyped view expressed in her words above complements the story of her college roommate’s stereotyped view of Adichie when she said, "she asked where I learned to speak English so well,....she had felt sorry for me even before she saw me. My roommate had a single of Africa; in this single-story, there was no possibility of Africans being similar to her in any way."

Indeed, her talk would have had a different impact without the story of Fide and his family, considering the fact that this was a real-life story so it made the best impact.

Answer:

The hot, humid weather that ran through out Orlando, Florida was absolutely unbearable. While I was ecstatic to reunite with my aunt, uncle, and cousins after almost 3 years, I couldn't help but be disappointed by the landscape. I was under the impression that Florida would be paradise, I would feel the cool breeze of the ocean air on my face, the crunchy texture of the sand in between my toes, and taste the salt water on my lips. Yet, i've been here for under an hour and was feeling like I would melt!  After an eternity, my family finally decided to head inside the house. Freed from the sun's sweltering heat, I ran to the refrigerator, opening the door and allowing the chilly air to waft out and cool my sweating body. After a couple minutes of relief, I re-joined my family in the living room. It was great to see everyone, I noticed how different everyone looked. My oldest cousin, Elliot, had grown much taller, towering over both his mother and father. Olivia, the youngest of my cousins, had also grown. Last time I saw her, she was barely two years old. Now, I watched as she ran as fast as her little legs could take her, circling the coffee table, babbling mindlessly as she went.  My aunt called my name, drawing me out of my deep thought.

"We will be heading to a restaurant called La Cantina in an hour for dinner. It is right on the beach! You will love the view. "

My stomach grumbled in response, I hadn't eaten all day! After quickly agreeing, Elliot and I made our way to his bedroom. It had been so long since we last talked, I was excited to get caught up. Before we knew it, an hour had passed and we all made our way to the restaurant. The dinner was wonderful. I was so happy to finally be surrounded by family. Unfortunately, most of the family is spread out over the US, and we rarely get a chance to see each other! After a while, we made our way back to the house, bellies full and cheeks aching from so much laughter. I dreaded the day I would have to head back home.

... select this as the brainliest please!!...
