Read the passage from "Names/Nombres" by Julia Alvarez. She was plain Anne – that is, only her name was plain, for she turned ou

t to be the pale, blond “American beauty” in the family. The only Hispanic thing about her was the affectionate nicknames her boyfriends sometimes gave her. Anita, or as one goofy guy used to sing to her to the tune of the banana advertisement, Anita Banana. Later, during her college years in the late sixties, there was a push to pronounce Third World names correctly. I remember calling her long distance at her group house and a roommate answering. “Can I speak to Ana?” I asked, pronouncing her name the American way. “Ana?” The man’s voice hesitated. “Oh! You must mean Ah-nah!” What evidence from the passage best supports the inference that Alvarez’s little sister Ana may have found it less difficult to integrate her Dominican and American identities during her college years?

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Later, during her college years in the late sixties, there was a push to pronounce Third World names correctly. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the narrative, Julia moved from Dominican to NY, together with her family. It was amazing that most people used to mispronounce the name of the family. For instance, when her family arrived in the immigration office, the officer would be able to mispronounce it. Julia is so eager to correct the officer from uttering the words wrongly, and she instead repeats it herself so that the officer gets the correct pronunciation.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

holocourst

Explanation:

She was only 6 years old when the pogrom began, but Frances Flescher remembers everything.

As a little girl, Flescher was part of the substantial Jewish population of the Romanian city of Iasi. But, though 30% of the city’s population was Jewish by 1930, according to Yad Vashem, anti-Semitism spread during that decade, and the country ended up on the Axis side once World War II began. Then, on June 29, 1941, her father said he was going out to buy cigarettes and never returned.

In fact, by then, it was already the second day of the pogrom during which police, soldiers and civilians killed or arrested thousands of Jewish citizens of Iasi. On the heels of bombing of the city by Soviet forces — after which, according to Radu Ioanid’s history of the pogrom, Jews were accused of Soviet collaboration and systematically hunted down by their neighbors — thousands of people were murdered in the streets. Following that massacre, about 4,000 more Jews from Iasi, by Yad Vashem’s count, were put on “death trains.” Packed tightly and sealed, without enough water or even air for those on board, they ran back and forth between stations until more than 2,500 had died.

From act III science I of Shakespeares play Romeo and Juliet what are two central ideas of the excerpt
padilas [110]

In this excerpt from Act III, Scene I of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet", the two central ideas are Romeo blames falling in love with Juliet as the cause of Mercutio’s death and Romeo blames his own cowardice and refusal to fight as the cause of Mercutio's death. Tybalt calls Romeo a villain. Romeo refuses to fight him because he has just married Juliet in secret. In his place, Mercutio draws his sword and fights Tybalt. Mercutio is stabbed by Tybalt when Romeo places himself between them to stop the fight. Mercutio is badly wounded and dies. Romeo blames himself for he has become "effeminate" because of his love for Juliet, and as a consequence of his cowardice, Mercutio died.
