Answer:

Quilt of a Country" is a commentary written by Pulitzer-prize winning author Anna Quindlen following the tragic events of September 11, 2001.

Th metaphor of a quilt is used in this text to symbolize America's diversity. There is a tension in America, which is that, despite citizens being from such different cultural and ethnic backgrounds, they can come together to build a great nation. The argument is that this resembles a "crazy quilt," which in theory should be mismatched because of the differences between its sections, but in practice comes together beautifully.

Answer:

A. Change student's to students'.

Explanation:

In sentence 8, the word <em>student's </em>should be changed to <em>students'</em>. The given text tells about a woman who became a nun and was sent to be a teacher in Calcutta, India. Every teacher has multiple students, and the text doesn't specify that Agnes was concerned about a particular student's education. This leads us to the conclusion that she was concerned about all of her students. The word <em>student's </em>would suggest that she was concerned about one student, while <em>students</em>' suggests that she was concerned about more of them. This is why option A is the correct one.
