Answer: Alvarez traces how Trujillo demanded the tributes, how her family reacted, and how it was finally her mother’s turn to pay tribute.

In these lines, Alvarez develops the idea by going from the general to the specific. First, she explains to us how Trujillo demanded tributes from everyone, and how he made this vital for anyone who wanted to have a life in the country. She then tells us how this affected her family, and their plans to escape. Finally, Alvarez explains the impact this had on her mother especifically, when it was her turn to pay tribute.

Why does Paul Holden hate Darry?<br> pls no bots
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Explanation:

Paul Holden is Darry's former friend and Soc member, the first to challenge Darry at the start of the rumble. Pony mentions that Paul had played halfback on Darry's football team and used to be close with his oldest brother. Unlike Darry, whose parents died in a tragic accident and who was forced to abandon his dreams of playing college football in order to raise Pony and Soda, Paul was fortunate and had the opportunity to enroll in college.

As the two boys stare each other down, Pony notices that Paul views Darry with hate, contempt, and pity. Darry hates and envies Paul because he was given certain advantages and opportunities in life. While Paul continued to play football and earn a college education, Darry was forced to work two jobs and struggles to make ends meet. Darry also hates the fact that he is representing the Greasers, which Pony understands is a source of shame. Overall, Darry is jealous of Paul's fortunate life and resents the fact that Paul was given so many opportunities while he was forced to work to support himself and his family and abandon his dreams.
