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 However, since turning 13, she has gradually become more withdrawn from & the reason was because she was now hanging out with the 'Fab Thirteens'; the 'Fab Thirteens' were a group of folks who had clocked 13 years old.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.

arsen [322]

The characterization presented in the text suggests that Anne was a very optimistic person, as shown in the third answer option.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The text shows an indirect characterization by showing Anne's optimistic behavior.
  • That's because the text shows how the hiding place where Anne was with her family was ugly and uncomfortable, but she recognized that it was the best they could have at the moment.
  • This situation showed to Anne that even though they were in a strange place, this was the best place in the entire country, as it was the place that kept them safe.

This characterization shows how Anne was optimistic and sought to see the best of situations even if those situations were bad.
