Answer:

The answer is indeed letter D. <u>The sentence contains a typo.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The sentence "Unfortunately, the poor eating habits of parents are often past down to their children" has a misspelled word. "Past" can be a noun, an adjective, a preposition, or even an adverb. In general, it refers to something that happened at a previous moment in history, or it indicates location or a lapse of time.

What happened in this sentence is a common mistake. "Past" has a homophone - another word that sounds just like it, but is spelled and used differently -, "passed", which would have been the correct choice. The sentence uses the passive voice to describe how eating habits are taught. Passive voice requires the past participle form of a verb. In the case of the verb "to pass", it would be "passed". Thus, "Unfortunately, the poor eating habits of parents are often passed down to their children" would have been right.

How did the author’s father feel when he read her story at the end of ""Only Daughter""?
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The authors father felt pride in her work.

Explanation:

Sandra Cisneros was the author and her purpose was to describe her experience as an only daughter in a Mexican-American family and how it had impacted her life. Sandra Cisneros shares her experiences being alone all the time, trying to be noticed as "a writer, not just as a teacher", and always searching for her father's approval. This isolation enabled Cisneros to become a writer motivated by the desire to make her father proud.

So her father was very proud of her works after all that she struggled with.
