When I first started at Hidaya I hated wearing the hijab. I found it itchy and I absolutely despised wearing it during gym class

. I also thought it looked awful on me and in the first two weeks I was always styling my bangs and letting them out at the front so that everybody knew I had nice hair. Talk about being insecure. But then I got to know the other kids and it no longer felt awkward. I got used to it and I met girls who were wearing it full-time outside of school, like, voluntarily, and I started to really respect their courage. I was even a bit jealous because there I would be, ripping it off as soon as I was off school property, and there they would be, calmly and proudly stepping onto a train filled with students from schools all over without so much as a hint of fear or doubt. They looked so at peace with their identity and everybody got to know and respect them on their own terms.

I would say the answer is D.
This is because of the way she talks about how she is uncomfortable with the hijab in the begging but releases that idea. Instead she goes into a more “I want to be as comfortable as those girls” idea and the story/excerpt tends to follow that idea until the end of it. Also the central ideas seem to be revealed at ends of stories for example she even states, “I was even a bit jealous” and “They looked so at peace with their identity and everybody got to know and respect them of their own terms.” Which implies she wants to have that sense of comfort in herself that she doesn’t have unlike the other girls.
Hope this helped!! :)

Read the excerpt from an occurrence at owls creek bridge which best describes the effects of narration in the excerpt
Shalnov [3]

The narration can impact the reader by showing him the thoughts of someone on the verge of death.

<h3>How does the text achieve this effect?</h3>
  • By showing an omnipresent narrator who has access to all of the character's thoughts and emotions.
  • By detailing the character's thoughts.
  • By showing details of how the character prepares and awaits death.

The narration is very expository and does not spare the reader about the state of mind of the man who is going to die, allowing the reader to understand and know everything he thinks and feels in relation to imminent death.

The passage to which this question refers is in the attached image.
