Read the passage from "Two Kinds.” Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents’ apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for p

urely sentimental reasons. My mother had died a few months before and I had been getting things in order for my father, a little bit at a time. I put the jewelry in special silk pouches. The sweaters she had knitted in yellow, pink, bright orange—all the colors I hated—I put those in moth-proof boxes. I found some old Chinese silk dresses, the kind with little slits up the sides. I rubbed the old silk against my skin, then wrapped them in tissue and decided to take them home with me. What evidence supports the idea that the narrator’s motivation is intrinsic? “Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents’ apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for purely sentimental reasons.” “My mother had died a few months before and I had been getting things in order for my father, a little bit at a time.” “I put the jewelry in special silk pouches. The sweaters she had knitted in yellow, pink, bright orange—all the colors I hated—I put those in moth-proof boxes.” “I found some old Chinese silk dresses, the kind with little slits up the sides.”

The answer is:

"Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents’ apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for purely sentimental reasons.”


This is intrisic because she says, "purely for sentimental reasons" meaning she wasn't influenced by anything from the outside, this was something she did on her own based on how she personally felt. It was based on her emotions and her feelings. Hope this helps:)

Answer:

    Something I could do to help the community is picking up trash. Littering is a very common reason of pollution not to mention how many people litter and when litter gets eaten by animals they get hurt and sick, the environment gets worse too. So, picking up after other people helps a lot. If everyone lent a hand to picking up trash the community would be a clean and happy place.

 

    Something I could do to improve the community is picking up trash. Littering is the most common source of pollution and it hurts the environment more than others think. An animal could easily eat plastic from the side of the road and get sick and potentially die. Picking up after other people is an excellent task to complete when helping any place, if everyone joined together to stop littering the community would be clean and healthy.

Explanation: I hope this helps you :)

-in the workplace since 1970, black men have always gotten 60-70% less pay than white men. 

-in 2009 police brutality deaths ranged from 397-426. That number jumped to 461 in 2013. However, federal experts believe that the estimates are to low.
