Answer:

I would say that the description of Elisa's daily routine supports the author's claim that the fast food industry seeks out teenage employees by providing anecdotal evidence of a teenage fast food employee living like an adult. <em>The correct answer is A.</em>

Explanation:

After reading this excerpt from <em>Fast Food Nation</em> where the author shows how is the daily routine of Elisa, we can picture how her life is like the one of an adult's, but she's only a teenager. She wakes up very early in the morning, she stands hours behind the counter, she comes and goes after the client's needs and, at the end of the day, her feet hurt, she feels tired as if she was an old person. Elisa has a full time job, it is not what she feels passionate about, and her body aches, and that supports the idea of the author that fast food industry seeks out teenage employees that end up living like adults. The author presents in this text anecdotal evidence for the main claim.

Answer:

The description of Elisa’s daily routine supports the author’s claim that the fast-food industry seeks out teenage employees because It provides anecdotal evidence of a teenage fast-food employee living like an adult.

Explanation:

This excerpt from Fast Food Nation tells the personal experience of a person working in the Fast Food chain industry, and how demanding and exhausting all the labor is, it asks hard work coming from the teenagers that they employ but at the same time they have the correct amount of energy to cope with all that needs to be done, even when it makes them act more like an adult at the end of the day.
