The correct answer is C: Although they smile outwardly, African Americans pray for an end to their community's struggle. As the lines indicate it, the African Americans are hiding something; this becomes obvious in the use of the mask. The mask they are wearing is their smile; a smile that characterizes them as happy people. However, this smile hides the suffering of their community.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

This is a personal paragraph, so try to re-word it so it sounds like you (so the teacher doesn't suspect anything)

Explanation:

2041, that's <em>five</em> presidents away from now. With that, a lot of things probably have changed, jobs, clothing, movies, life styles, a LOT of things would change. Looking at jobs in 20 years from now, I would probably work at some company, or some good job I'm at that pays around 60k-70k. Maybe currency has changed, it could all just be digital, or not, since it's only 20 years. I couldn't think how my family would look like since I'm not even 18 yet. I'm more of a present minded person, so I just hope things don't spiral out of control by the time of 2041
