Which textual evidence from I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings best supports the stated idea that the town’s cotton pickers were po

or people? Question 3 options: Brought back to the store, the pickers would step out of the backs of trucks and fold down, dirt disappointed, to the ground. Their wages wouldn’t even get them out of debt to my grandmother, not to mention the staggering bill that waited on them at the white commissary downtown. The sound of empty cotton sacks dragging over the floor and the murmurs of waking people were sliced by the cash register as we rang up five cent sales. One man was going to pick two hundred pounds of cotton, and another three hundred.

Answer: Their wages wouldn’t even get them out of debt to my grandmother, not to mention the staggering bill that waited on them at the white commissary downtown.

Explanation:

By stating that the town's cotton pickers had wages that could not even get them out of debt with their grandmother, Maya Angelou infers that the cotton pickers were paid meagre salaries which meant they were poor people who were even in debt with the White Commissary downtown which probably supplied them with their farming equipment.

<em>I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings</em> is an autobiography of Maya Angelou depicting her life as a child growing up with her momma ( grandmother).

Write an article to be published in the newspaper on `the latest fashion among teenagers'​
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer: Fashion refers to the manner of doing something. Fashion also denotes style, a dress and hair and dealings with others. Among students, the word primarily conveys the sense with regard to ‘dress and hair styles.’

These days, students devote more time to fashions than to studies. Educational institutions and, particularly colleges, present the picture of film studios. As soon as a boy or a girl joins a college, there occurs a marvelous change in him or her. Simplicity takes wings and there comes ostentation in its place. Their gait is changed; their way of conversation assumes a different modulation and their behaviour gets stricken with artificiality. They strut like peacocks and fly like butterflies.
