Assuming the text is "Learning How to Code-Switch: Humbling, but Necessary" (2013) and you had to choose between the following claims:
<em>A. Code-switching keeps people from expressing themselves by promoting one correct style of communication.</em>
<em>B. It is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity.</em>
<em>C. The United States consists of great cultural variety and no one should be discriminated against for speaking a certain way.</em>
<em>D. Many successful people have used code-switching, but it is unfair to expect minorities to have multiple communication styles.</em>
Deggans' thesis is that it is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity (B).
<u>Code-switching</u> means alternating between languages or communication styles according to the context (cultural, professional, casual, etc.).
Deggans' testimony shows that being able to code-switch is what has helped him to integrate social groups which were different from the poor black neighborhood he came from, while maintaining his identity.
This answer is supported by such such quotes as:
- "expertly navigating another culture wasn’t a rejection of where I’d come from or a signal that I was any less authentically black;"
- "it’s a reminder to be fully who you are at all times, while making sure you’re understood well enough to be valued, respected and considered."
Answer:
I believe the answers are:
I've applied to three universities----> It deserves how many times it happened
I've seen this film before----> It happened at an unspecified time in the past
Explanation:
The word 'three' is explaining to us that she/he had applied many times.
'Seen before' tells us that it happened in the past but it does not give us a specific time, day or date in the sentence.
Answer:
Most likely foreshadowing
Explanation:
Foreshadowing is a literary device used to give an indication or hint of what is to come later in the story. Foreshadowing is useful for creating suspense, a feeling of unease, a sense of curiosity, or a mark that things may not be as they seem.

Explanation:
You could write about a pretty place you have been too! something like this maybe?
I would say one of the most prettiest places I have seen is a beach in Virginia. To get there, you had to walk a couple of miles through a beautiful forest. The forest was so green and the heat of the sun was very hot but the trees covered us with cool shade. Once we got there, we relaxed and cooled off in the water. I felt happy and calm, I would love to do it again some time!
