Answer: Wei Chen is a foil

Explanation: In fiction, a foil is a character who contrasts with another character, usually the main character to highlight particular qualities of the other character. In some cases, another argument can be used as a foil to the main plot. This is especially true in the case of metafiction and the "story within a story" motif.

Wei-Chen is just about the coolest character in the book. Yeah he can't dress or style his hair and sure his English is broken, but he's the kind of supportive friend you want in your corner, especially when things go bad.

He's honest, like when he calls Jin "a cowardly turtle" for not volunteering with Amelia to take care of the animals in biology class after school.

Read the excerpt from "A Genetics of Justice" by Julia
deff fn [24]

"A Genetics of Justice" by Julia Alvarez is a story of a totalitarian government and a young girl. "Trujillo's vanity knew no bounds," provides the best evidence for the central idea. Thus, option B is correct.

<h3>What is the central idea?</h3>

A central idea is the theme of the literary work that gives the insight and the idea of the whole passage or the poem. It deduces the main points and the concept the writer wants the readers to understand.

The statement depicts how Trujillo was worried and concerned about his appearance which led him to build the high heels, Napoleonic hats, etc. that made him look good and hence supports the theme.

Therefore, option B. Trujillo's vanity knew no bounds is the best evidence.
