Question

please answer only the first two. I asked this question earlier but realized how little points I was awarding, also I will give brainliest ​

Answer 1

3. B

4. D

3. The text refers to the Dust Bowl, which was a period of severe dust storms.

The farmers had plowed the topsoil too deeply, and when the drought hit the area, the unanchored soil was blown away. The analogy suggests the 'great force of the dust storms.'

4. The word 'story' in the passage represents a person or a family; such a long chain formed by the stories 'strung together' suggests the 'great number of immigrants who each survived a difficult time.'

Answer 2

The second one seems to be B. Describing the amount of stories told would also imply that it connects the migrants. The first one might be either A or D. A would make sense because bulldozing a field also shows the difficulty of levelling it whereas the others don’t connect as much to the excerpt.
