Answer:
Enrique, on his journey, went through many fearful situations. The resolution of the plot is that in the end he finally found his mother. The author's point of view was to tell you the story of one boy's journey so that we would have a better understanding of immigration. There were many human rights issues that took place. People were beaten, robbed, raped and had little food to eat. The author wanted people who read her nook to see what immigrants went through to find their family or just a better way to live.
The author is not only telling Enrique's story, but she has also included facts about immigration.
How about now?
Answer:
Mary Jean and Beth <u>volunteered</u> for the past five years at a local shelter for abused pets.
Explanation:
In the given sentence, the action/ verb is something that's done in the past. This is identified by the phrase "for the past five years", meaning it is an action that's been done in the past, that happened some years before the present. Therefore, the verb "volunteer" will be used on the past form "volunteered".
So, the newly revised sentence will become-
Mary Jean and Beth <u>volunteered</u> for the past five years at a local shelter for abused pets.
