Question

My grandmother gave me bad advice and good advice when I was in my early teens. For the bad advice, she said that I should become a barber because they made good money and listened to the radio all day. “Honey, they don’t work como burros,” she would say every time I visited her. She made the sound of donkeys braying. “Like that, honey!” For the good advice, she said that I should marry a Mexican girl. “No Okies, hijo”—she would say— “Look, my son. He marry one and they fight every day about I don’t know what and I don’t know what.” For her, everyone who wasn’t Mexican, black, or Asian were Okies. The French were Okies, the Italians in suits were Okies. . . . she lectured me on the virtues of the Mexican girl.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option B. The complex narrative structure used in the excerpt is an example of several narrators being used.

Explanation:

In the excerpt from Gary Soto's story called "Like Mexicans", the complex narrative structure serves as an example of how the author uses several narrators to tel the story. Although the main narrator is conducting the story telling, the voice of the grandmother appears as another narrator in order to support the story and to give the narration  a more personal and detailed perspective.
