Answer:

D) Sadness and poverty.

Explanation:

The short story "Marigolds" by Eugenia Collier revolves around the character Lizabeth and her search for her identity living in a poor Maryland society. Not only that, the plot also shows poverty and backward issues that was prevalent during the Great Depression that overtook the place.

The narrator Lizabeth uses the words "dust" and "gray" in describing the poverty of the scene/place she was from. The dust represents the sadness, the absence of life in that dilapidated village of hers, whereas the gray is more related to the description of the house of Miss Lottie. The house that Miss Lottie lived in was a 'sorry' house, almost as if it was just some cardboard put together by a small kid, to be easily blown down by the wind. The narrator also admits at the end of the story that <em>"the dust and squalor"</em> of the place she used to call home was just some place that she would not forget, and the "<em>marigolds</em>" of Miss Lottie that she had destroyed in a rage when she was a child.

Write a report of about 250-300 words on an event or occurrence which made an impact on your country’s situation.
IceJOKER [234]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The event or occurrence that made an impact on my country’s situation was the presidential election victory of the left political party "Morena" and his candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador. His victory in the 2018 elections represented a major advancement in Mexican politics after 40 years of "liberalism" policies that failed and made poor people more poor and rich people richer.

Candidate López Obrador received the support of 30 million votes, a total record in the history of México. His base support was poor and middle social classes that had been suffering the consequences of those "liberalism" years or political corruption and favoritism for big Nacional and multinational corporations at the expense of low and middle classes.

Since the first day of his government, the new President changed the rules on how to make politics in México.

One of the first things he did was to disappear the "personal military service corps," which were responsible for the security of the president. The equivalent of the US Secret Service. Almost 8,000 military men were returned to the army headquarter in the 32 Mexican states for the protection of the people, and he just kept a small group of people that oversees his security; half civilians, half military.

He did not accept to fly in his private military plane. He flights across the nation in commercial flights. So the common citizen can be seated next to the Mexican President at the departure gate or inside the plane, and express his concerns.

That is how he directly communicates with people and his acceptance as President is very high.
