The correct answer is B. People who gather census information

Explanation:

The term "context clues" refers to the information the words that surround a technical or unknown word provide about its meaning. This implies, by understanding the context of a word it is possible to determine the meaning of the unknown word.

In the case presented, in which the unknown word is "Enumerators" the text in which it appears is about Census, which is the process of gathering information about the population of a country or area including their age, education, occupation, etc. Because of this, the text explains the Census Bureau, which is the institution in charge of gathering and processing the data, cannot make changes on the information of the "Enumerators". Considering the unknown word "Enumerator" is related to other such as "Census" and "the data they collected" that work as context clues about the meaning of this word it can be concluded in this context this word means "people who gather census information" because the text explains the data gathered by the enumerators during the census cannot be changed.

Why is the sentence “so there was nothing to fear from them” (lines 73-74) ironic? What does it foreshadow?
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The line is ironic for even after the family of Don Lupe had gone, either dead or the children taken away to far away lands, he still had to live a life in hiding, "like a leper", scared of any new stranger in town.

It foreshadows the event that will be upon him, being hunted and eventually tortured and killed by the son of the very man he had killed.

Explanation:

The short story "Tell Them Not To Kill Me" by Juan Rulfo is a story about an accused man on death penalty. The accused Juvencio Nava had murdered his neighbor Don Lupe over a mere trifling issue of their cattle grazing in the other person's land. And for this crime, he had been guarding himself from being detected, which after the death of the victim's wife and the young children taken to far away place to their relatives, he had thought himself safe from any retribution.

The line <em>"so there was nothing to fear from them"</em> is said by Juvencio while recounting the past years he had lived during the murder. He stated that with the death of Lupe's wife due to grief, and the children being taken to stay with relatives in a far away places, he has nothing to worry about anymore. He could easily live his life without the fear of being hunted.

But this speech is ironic for it actually happened in the opposite way. He had to live in hiding for many years, and would flee to the mountains whenever someone new came into town.

The line also foreshadows the future events where he will be captured and killed by the son of the murdered man. The colonel who had him captured has come to pass judgement on him. As it turns out, he was the son of Don Lupe, and had wanted to exact revenge on his father's killer. In the end, Guadalupe Terreros' son had avenge his father's murder.
