Answer:

Elliott divided his class into upper and lower students, through physical characteristics and not through the students' real ability. Elliott's criteria is the detail that highlights the creation of the division she created in the classroom.

Explanation:

Elliott tried to explain to his group how discrimination and racism operated in society. For this, she used her own criteria to divide the class into "superior" and "inferior" students. These criteria were based solely on physical characteristics and not on the students' real ability.

Elliott divided the students by the color of their eyes. Light-eyed students would be considered "superior" and would have perks within the classroom, in addition to being praised at all times. Dark-eyed students would be "inferior" and would have no perks other than being criticized all the time. The next day, the roles would be reversed and the students with dark eyes would be the superiors, while those with light eyes would be the inferiors.

Alja [10]

This question is incomplete, missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

CASSIUS:

Brutus, I do observe you now of late.

I have not from your eyes that gentleness

And show of love as I was wont to have.

You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand

Over your friend that loves you.

Which statement summarizes this excerpt best?

A.Cassius has recently become angrier with Brutus and is not willing to be the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

B.Cassius has noticed that lately Brutus seems to be angry with him instead of being the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

C.Brutus has noticed that Cassius seems to be angry with him, but Cassius denies that his feelings for Brutus have changed.

D.Cassius is trying to convince Brutus that they are better friends than they really are in an effort to get closer to Caesar.

Answer:

The best summary for the excerpt is:

B.Cassius has noticed that lately Brutus seems to be angry with him instead of being the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

Explanation:

Brutus, I do observe you now of late.

I have not from your eyes that gentleness

And show of love as I was wont to have.

The lines above mean Cassius has been watching Brutus's behavior. He has noticed that, lately, Brutus is not gentle and loving towards him. Brutus's behavior has clearly changed.

You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand

Over your friend that loves you.

Brutus seems angry, impatient, even stubborn when dealing with Cassius. Before, he used to be more willing to listen and yield; he used to be easier to deal with. He is no longer the friend and brother-in-law he used to be.

As a young child, I remember listening to stories about Angelo Pagano, my great-grandfather who emigrated from Italy to the

atroni [7]

The narrator's conclusion is that she remembered wonderful moments with her great-grandfather and -grandmother and wanted to know if she was mentioned in the letters.

Those fantastical images vanished one beautiful fall day when I was cleaning out the attic and came across a collection of old photographs.

A tattered green ribbon was used to connect the letters together. When I touched the paper, it was yellow and dry, and it began to disintegrate. I recognised the writing was Italian as I carefully untied the ribbon and unfolded the first letter. My understanding of the language is limited to spaghetti and espresso, but I could tell that the letter was written by my great-grandfather to Sofia, his beloved wife and my great-grandmother, from the greeting at the beginning and the signature at the end.
