Answer:
If you are going to college this autumn: don’t forget to sign up for a discount card.
When my nephew is not listening and I’ll get so frustrated and the next sentence I use will involve the F word. I instantly regret doing that because I would never do that in front of his mom (who’s also my sister). In addition to that, he doesn’t listen anyways. Instead of using vulgarity, disrespecting my sister, and being furthermore frustrated by the fact that he still didn’t listen to me, I should have not said anything and left the room.
Answer:
D. Jesse Owens didn’t allow the racial discrimination he faced at home or abroad to keep him from doing what he loved and succeeding at it.
Explanation:
In the informational essay <em>Jesse Owens </em>by Shelby Ostergaard, the whole essay details how persistent James Cleveland Owens was in his desire to achieve his dream. He did not let the racial discrimination and prejudice deter him from doing what he loves, despite what others may say or treat him.
The main idea of the whole essay seems to be that he did not allow the racial discrimination he faced at home and even at the college or even the treatment he met after winning the Olympics deter his aim. Hitler refused to shake his hand after his win, the racial discrimination back at home did not change even after winning a medal for his country, the country that seems to love him yet not care about him at all. But despite all these, he did not stop doing what he loved, running towards his goals, and which, in his own words, is one thing <em>"you could do by yourself and under your own power"</em>.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
