Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Using the word "appreciate" would make me believe that the quilts are high value to Dee, so it would make sense that she thinks they are precious. If Maggie is "backward" then she wouldn't understand that special things should not be used every day.

Answer:

The correct answer is B: Dee believes that Maggie will damage the quilts by using them everyday.

Explanation:

The key word here is 'backward'. Maggie is the shy sister who stayed home and didn't have the chance to get an education. Dee adresses her as 'backward' because she believes Maggie is old-fashioned and behind in time for not going out to the big city and learn. Dee thinks that Maggie doesn't know aynthing about their historical heritage as black women and thus will ruin the quilts by putting them to everyday use.

Read this passage:
Usimov [2.4K]

The answer is:

<em>A) Aside from a few fresh ingredients, fast food is preproduced, resembling a science experiment more than food preparation.</em>

Because it explains, shortly, the main idea that the text tells.

Fast food preparations methods now are less likely to be found in cookbooks and more likely to be found in trade journals (like a science experiment would), because, everything is already prepoduced (aside some vegetables - fresh ingredients -).
