This question is missing the options and is, therefore, incomplete. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the two excerpts about Pilar from Dreaming in Cuban.

Excerpt 1: They called me brujita, little witch. I stared at them, tried to make them go away.

Excerpt 2: Another woman, an elderly mulatta, claimed that her hair was falling out from the menacing stares the baby gave her.

Which statement is the best synthesis for the two excerpts?

A. Most Cuban women rely on the services of nannies when raising their children.

B. Supernatural experiences are frequently dismissed as being coincidental in Cuban culture.

C. Inexplicable events are sometimes interpreted as supernatural experiences in Cuban culture.

D. Many Cuban children remember the earliest events of their childhood.

Answer:

The statement which is the best synthesis for the two excerpts is:

C. Inexplicable events are sometimes interpreted as supernatural experiences in Cuban culture.

Explanation:

"Dreaming in Cuban" is a novel by author Cristina García. It features three generations of a single family and the plot moves between the United States and Cuba. The two excerpts we are analyzing here show how superstition can play an important role in some countries' cultures. Both of them represent how inexplicable events are sometimes interpreted as supernatural experiences in Cuban culture. Pilar is called by others a "little witch", and she tries to make them go away just with her stare. Besides that, a woman attributes her hair loss to the way a baby stares at her. Instead of trying to find plausible and realistic explanations for events, people seem to just assume, superstitiously.
