marin [14]

Answer:

He rang the bell, then jumped in the bush-

Yes, it was his favorite thing; the button to push-

He waited for her to open the door-

And to realize, "The bell rang, what for?"-

He watched as she walked around the front porch-

She struck a match, and lit the torch-

It burned so very bright, and she could see-

The one whom rang the doorbell; it was he!-

She took a step closer, and to her surprise-

He ran away; bringing tears to her eyes-

He yearned so badly, oh for a kiss-

Yet all he could do was reminisce-

Of the time when he was hers-

Before they were separated by the curse.

Trevor says about his mother, "She wanted a child, not a man stepping in to run her life" (Noah 26). How does this explain Trevo

kirill115 [55]

This question is about the book called "Born A Crime" by Trevor Noah

Answer and Explanation:

Noah's mother was South African and her father was a Swiss. During the apartheind marriage between them was forbidden, but Noah's father wanted to have a relationship with his mother, while Noah's mother wanted to have a child, but did not want a man in her life. This allowed Noah's mother to have a relationship (even though it was considered a crime) and to get pregnant, without having to marry Noah's father, and this allowed Noah's father to have a relationship with Noah's mother, without having to assume and taking care of a future child. That's what happened, but when Noah was born and he was neither a white child nor a black child, he was considered a crime, since the relationship between whites and blacks was illegal and he was clearly the result of such a relationship.

In order for us to answer this question correctly, we need to look at the context of it and use context clues to guess the missing vocabulary accurately. In this sense, context clues are hints, within a sentence or paragraph, that allows us as readers to glimpse the main idea in the sentence and thus choose the best options to complete it. In this case, we are being asked to describe an action, and with the words that are present in the sentece already, we must try to gather the mood and the tone of it, to correctly choose the verbs to use. In essence, this sentence shows a tone of urgency, almost desperation, of someone who needed to reach the dock quickly, but cannot finally do so. As such, the correct choices to complete this sentence would be: jumped and raced because aside from conveying the urgency of the action, they are also the most accurate to describe the action correctly.
