Answer:

Explanation:

Anita Desai uses both flash-forward and flashback effectively to show shifts in time in the story.

Here is an example of flashback from the story:

Nothing more wonderful had ever happened to him than being taken out by an uncle and bought a whole slab of chocolate all to himself, or being flung into the soda man’s pony cart and driven up to the gate by the friendly driver with the red beard and pointed ears.

Here is an example of flash-forward in the story:

He contemplated slipping out of the shed and into the fray. He wondered if it would not be better to be captured by Raghu and be returned to the milling crowd as long as he could be in the sun, the light, the free spaces of the garden, and the familiarity of his brothers, sisters, and cousins. It would be evening soon. Their games would become legitimate. The parents would sit out on the lawn on cane basket chairs and watch them as they tore around the garden or gathered in knots to share a loot of mulberries or black, teeth-splitting jamun from the garden trees. The gardener would fix the hosepipe to the water tap, and water would fall lavishly through the air to the ground, soaking the dry yellow grass and the red gravel and arousing the sweet, the intoxicating scent of water on dry earth—that loveliest scent in the world. Ravi sniffed for a whiff of it. He half-rose from the bathtub, then heard the despairing scream of one of the girls as Raghu bore down upon her.

HELPPP! 25 POINTS AND MARKING BRAINLIEST IF RIGHT!!

I would definitely say that this is the first option: Teenagers' concerns about appearance can affect their feelings about themselves. 
Why do I think this? Well let me explain. In the first passage, the person specifically prays for the boy they fell in love with, as well as a new nose. That would indicate that they aren't happy with the way they look. 
Now onto the second passage. Alfonso believes that he has to be in amazing shape to get the girls in "cut offs" to notice him, and to think that he's strong and handsome. He wants them to think that he's capable of handling himself, no matter the circumstances. It also states that he hates the way he looks. He's insecure about what he looks like. 
I hope that this helps you.

bagirrra123 [75]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

What is the reporter’s motive in article 1?  

✔ to report factual events with added commentary  

What is the reporter’s motive in article 2?  

✔ to report on the unfolding investigation  

Which term from Senator Nelson’s quote in article 2 is an example of bias?  

✔ “witch hunt”

(Photo for proof at the bottom.)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Article 1 mostly consists of facts that can be verified, along with some commentary. The commentary includes saying what might happen to Raymond Valido.

The quote from article 2, "The Federal Election Commission reported Wednesday that its initial investigation..." indicates that it is reporting on the unfolding investigation. Witch hunt is usually used to describe an investigation of accused people, because of opinions. Witch hunt involves opinions in its meaning, so it is used in biased situations.
