<u>Answer:</u>
Up above, there is a sky so blue, that one colour cannot describe it. Below, tree stumps rise, the branches reaching out and feeling the wind with their leaves. The leaves are full of warm reds, yellows, and oranges underneath the blue sky, hoping to reach out and away to explore with the other leaves. But when they away, the rush of wind only lasts for seconds and they drop on the cold wet ground. And when they drop on the ground, they want the wind to blow them back onto their branch. But when the wind obeys and picks them up, they only fall further away from the tree, down a hill and onto a girl and a dog that lies close to her. A big yellow school bus rumbles up to the curb and with a rusty swoosh, the doors rush open, and There was a bunch of voices, and Farrah and Belle got on the bus and jumped on the steps behind them. They retreated to the last seat. The kids on the bus seemed a little stronger, a little louder and, a little bigger. She plugged her earphones into her phone to drown them out. The bus ride was long and labyrinthine with streets that formed hexagons and circles, spinning them in endless circles.

The correct answer is the following: <em>option c. Materialism was an object of critique in the works of the "Lost Generation" of writers.</em> Gertrude Stein was an American novelist from the 1920's that coined the term "Lost Generation" using it as a reference to the lack of purpose that young people had at that time, as a consequence of the World War I. The term then became popular to represent the group of authors and poets of the 1920's as their work represented the feelings the World had at those times. One of the main themes The Lost Generation wrote about was about materialism, and how many people became reckless spenders, obsessed with material objects and throwing parties on a constant as all their moral ideals had been killed by the War. Famous authors from these movement are Ernest Hemingway and Scott Fitzgerald.
I mean you may be physically free but mentally captured. For example, you work at a restaurant and you are free to leave whenever you want, but your boss treats you badly. He's always in your head and thoughts because you know that if you don't please him he might fire you and you need your job. Another example could also be that you are physically healthy but mentally ill. For example: You may have multiple personalities and even though you don't have a wounded leg or arm you are internally enslaved to the other personalities which tell you what to do. These are just a few examples of how you can be physically free and at the same mind enslaved.
The correct answer is A) us; indirect object.
The pronoun has to be us because we are looking for an object, and we is a pronoun used for a subject.
Also, it is indirect object because when there are two objects in a sentence, the rule is that the first object is indirect, and it is followed by a direct object. The direct object in this sentence is the old newspapers, which means that the indirect object is John and us.
Options C and D feature parallel structure.
Parallel structure occurs when the same grammatical pattern is used. In options C and D, the same grammatical pattern is used in each: both are questions, and both begin with a verb followed by the subject.
