I think that the purpose of Daly's "Sixteen" is TO SERVE AS A LESSON TO OTHER GIRLS.
At 16, you think you know everything there is to know just like the character in the story. She always say's "I know...." and because of what she knew, she had expectations. She expected that the boy she met in the skating rink will call her after spending time with her, walking her home, and telling her that he'd call. She was emotionally invested but she got disappointed. The boy did not call and in the end of the story, she knew that he will never, ever, call.
Answer:
"It had been almost four weeks since she’d ridden Dark Star, and Giselle was adamant that her broken arm would not inhibit her riding."
Explanation:
This is the line from the text that shows that Giselle is so passionate about horses and riding that she sometimes is careless about her safety. In this line, we learn that Giselle really misses riding and cannot wait to ride Dark Star again. Therefore, she decides to go riding even though she has a broken arm. This can be very dangerous, and serves as evidence of how careless Giselle can be when it comes to her personal safety.
some events might be birthday parties, school graduation, business meetings, and grand openings

The correct option is B. Inform the reader about the various ways people reacted to the plague.
Options A, C and E are incorrect because they state that the author is trying to persuade the audience. This text is merely informative, it presents the facts and provides examples in a very objective way. It doesn't include adjectives describing feelings, personal opinions or phrases which try to convince the reader.
Option D. is wrong because the text is not about how people survived the plague but how they react in different ways in that context.
