Answer:
The question is incomplete. This is the complete question:
After lunch, the junior representatives listened to an author read from her work. Jamal’s mom had given him some money to get a souvenir of his big day, and jamal decided to buy the author’s book. When she was done with her presentation, jamal approached her and asked if she had any copies for sale. The woman gave him a copy for free and even wrote an inscription inside. She wrote, "I hope you had a blast during the conference. I wish I had someone as ambitious as you working on my campaign. Jamal was touched by her words. He shook the woman’s hand and went back to join the other junior representatives. Based on the author’s description, which word best describes the writer that jamal meets?
a) careless
b) generous
c) demanding
d) disappointing
The answer is b): generous.
Explanation:
The answer is “generous” because when Jamal approached the writer, he likely intended to buy a copy of the writer’s book. However, the writer, a woman, gave Jamal a copy of her book for free, and also inspired him by inscribing the following words inside the book: “I wish I had someone as ambitious as you working on my campaign”. These two acts from the writer point to the fact that the writer was generous with her book, and words of inspiration.
