Answer:
Mom wanted me to set up the Christmas tree for her.
Explanation:
The excerpt uses explicit details in the following way: it provides a <u>physical description</u> of Sarah Penn (small woman, short waist, gray hair, mild forehead, downward lines about her nose and mouth). All of it is explicit, since there is no room for interpretation, it is what it is. In other words, such details are concrete ones, since they are physical and nothing else.
As for implicit details, we can find them in a figure of speech (a <u>hypallage</u>, which uses an adjective or participle to describe a noun other than the person or thing it is in fact describing): we learn Sarah Penn's forehead was benevolent, that is, it showed her benevolence (an implicit detail, since it was Sarah, and not her forehead, that was benevolent). It is a trait which implicitly tells something about the character's personality. There is also the description of <u>meek downward lines</u> about her nose and mouth. Again, a hypallage which implicitly tells us something about the character: it is Sarah who is gentle and humble, and not the lines about her nose and mouth.
<span>When a group of people feel they have been treated unfairly by the government, the US Constitution guarantees you the right to redress the government. I would say this sentence captures the main idea which is what the Japanese Americans did including especially Mary Tsukamoto was succeed in getting redress for their wrongful internment in WWII by the passing of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988. </span>
