Answer:

Lines 19-21 suggest that the speaker is confused about the next step to take in life and needs guidance of her mother.

Explanation:

"Hanging Fire" is a poem about a 14-year-old teenage girl who expresses a myriad of emotions - excitement, enthusiasm, doubts, fears, anxieties - on various topical issues in her life.

In lines 19-21, she says that "she has plenty to do yet nothing to do" expressing her desire to launch out, explore and do things in life yet is held back by our fear or worry of the unknown. She is confused on the next steps to take as her teenage years unfold.

Meanwhile her mother who is supposed to be her guide through this phase of life is strangely absent, locked up behind closed doors in the bedroom, oblivious of the life challenges her daughter is going through

Which passage is an example of inductive reasoning?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The correct answer would be option C, Reina's fingers hurt when she play guitar for two hours a day, she tells her mother that all guitarists feel pain when they play for a long time.

Explanation:

Inductive reasoning is the method of reasoning in which the statement issues by anyone is supplied with some real evidence. It starts with the narrow perspective and is linked with the generalized view of that. So in option C, Reina is telling her mother about how her finger hurts while playing guitar, then she tells that it happens with all guitarists when they play for a long time. This means she is broadening her perspective by starting with her own example and then generalizing it to all guitarists.
