Answer:

The correct answer is: I was never on ship before.

Explanation:

The detail that would best help a reader to determine the central idea of the excerpt, related to experiencing something for the first time, is a sentence where the protagonist says he never was on a ship before. This sentence is directly related to experiencing something for the first time, while the rest of the option represents the impression and moods that the author experienced on the ship.

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Okay, I read this book <em>and </em>watched the movie. The book is about African Americans and how police shoot innocent teens because police think they have "a gun." This was the first part. The other is how the main character "Starr" coped with Khalil's death.

Angie Thomas wrote this book because of fatal African American shootings. She came up with the title because a song that came up in the book by Tupac, "the hate u gave little infants....everybody"

(By the way, really recommend the movie, it is super emotional!)

Hope this helped! >.<
