Answer:

Option B - Jamie loses her best friend.

Explanation:

Following through the narrative, we see the effect of peer pressure in play. Apparently, before Lynette turned 13 years old, Jamie used to be her best friend. However, since turning 13, she has gradually become more withdrawn from & the reason was because she was now hanging out with the 'Fab Thirteens'; the 'Fab Thirteens' were a group of folks who had clocked 13 years old. They excluded anyone who was 12 and below from joining their group; this was the reason why Jamie (the narrator) could not join the 'Fab Thirteens' - She was not yet 13 years old. As a result, Jamie loses her best friend, Lynette made evident by the statement "Gradually, Lynette stopped inviting me over after school" from the excerpt.

<u>Hence, the significant event described in this excerpt is that Jamie loses her best friend (Lynette)</u>

Answer:

Option B. The significant event that is described in the excerpt is that Jamie loses her best friend.

Explanation:

The excerpt from the story "I am Not Thirteen Yet" written by Amy Bernstein is describing the significant event in the main character's life, where she loses her best friend. As the excerpt begins, the character express how she and her best friend have drifted apart "Lynette stopped inviting me over after school". The character is overhearing a conversation between her friend, Lynette, and another girl, in which they discuss their plans for after school, which involve going to the Ice-cream shop, but it is clear that the main character is not being invited to join the group, which reinforces the concept that she and her friend Lynette are no longer close.

How does the story of Mulan project a positive attitude toward the Chinese culture?
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The story Mulan gives Chinese culture positive light in various ways. One example, being the obvious, an approch to equality. The legendary story had sexist  accusations which was the main obstacle for the chinnese woman. Later in the story she decides to dress up as a man in order to fill her destiny. This gives young Chinese girls inspiration that they can do just about anything despite their race or gender, which is just a singular example of how Mulan puts chinese culture in a positive light.

BartSMP [9]
I think the one that learn the least is : The narrator's aunt. She kept making unreasonable accusation throughout the story. One of it was that she believed that the burglar has been coming to her house every night for the last 40 years. i might say that the one that learn the most would be the narrator himself.

Hope this helps
