The central idea of the paragraph in this exceprt the author adopts is that her parents barely dealt with the circumstances of living under a dictatorship despite the humiliating tributes done by Trujillo they unwillingly made part of, so the best idea is the last option "<em>The author’s parents tried to get by in the dictatorship, but felt humiliated by the tributes they were forced to participate in."</em> As expressed in the passage, the author's parents tried to keep a low profile to avoid detection from police, but having a handful of daughters made it difficult, and they could not take any risks but to accede to stand the dictatorship.

Answer:
C. The room is a former nursery with bars on its windows, emphasizing her treatment as a child/prisoner and thus the eventual break from her identity as a sane adult woman.
Explanation:
The short story<em> </em><em>"The Yellow Wallpaper"</em> by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is a feminist text which shows the constraints that women faced in their lives especially during the 19th Century. This particular text focus on the mental and physical health of women as regarded right by the 'men' or patriarchal society as a whole.
The room that the narrator and her husband had taken 'for the improvement of her health' is more like a cage. It was at the top of the house, a room with torn and dilapidated wallpaper, which was also a former nursery. It had bars and rings and things. She points out that <em>"the windows are barred for little children"</em>, which is significant for it emphasizes her treatment as a child/ prisoner. She had no control over the diagnosing of her 'illness' nor does she have control over the medicines she's to take. Everything is taken care of by her husband John.
Thus, the room that she and her husband took represents her treatment as a child/prisoner and thus the eventual break from her identity as a sane adult woman.
11. The correct answer is B. indirect object.
When there are two objects in a sentence, a direct one and an indirect one, the first one is going to be indirect, and it will be followed by the direct object. In this sentence, the direct object is 'to stay silent while in court,' which means that the indirect object is 'the client.'
12. The correct answer is D. predicate adjective.
Predicate adjective is the first adjective found after a linking verb (the one which connects two parts of a sentence. In this case, the linking verb is 'was,' which means that the first adjective following it is 'creative,' which makes it a predicate adjective.
13. The correct answer is B. indirect object.
The explanation is the same as for sentence number 11. You can easily spot a direct object - just ask the question What?/Whom? So here, what did the last testimony give the judge? - A reason to doubt. That is the direct object, which means that the object in front of it, the judge, is indirect.
14. The correct answer is D. compound predicate nominative.
A predicate nominative is the first noun following a linking verb, which in this case is 'represented.' Those nouns in this sentence are advancement and challenge - and even though you may be led to believe these are direct objects, they are not because they are not preceded by a transitive verb, but rather a linking verb.
