The correct answer is b. people who gather census information

Even though enumerators might have made mistakes the data sticks, and the enumerators are people who collect the data about the census.

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.

Describe Evie's life in Denver before her father witnessed the shooting. Why is her real name important to her?
iVinArrow [24]
1) Evie's life in Denver was far more satisfying than when she became Evie. Her real name is Toswiah, as well as all her family, she had to change the name due to the shooting incident. In general, she lived a normal life in Denver, and being 'black' among 'whites' was not such a big deal, as she was a regular teenager with her strengths and weaknesses.

2) But her family faced the situation that changed everything. They had to move into another city, under new names to start a new life. The idea of new life was the only possible way to get over the problems but it was hard for each member of family. Her real name is important for Evie because it serves to her as connection with the past that she misses so much. Her name is her memories that (she thinks) can protect her from the harshness of new environment and stress that filled the family.

Please select the word from the list that best fits the definition:
Liono4ka [1.6K]

A - Timeline

A timeline would allow for historical events to be noted and compared to the events happening in the story (dueing that particular period in time).

A Venn Diagram would be most useful to compare (and contrast) one particular incident.

A chart is a little vague as to how it would be beneficial.
