Answer:
“For as some were thus employed in affairs abroad, others were exercised in fishing, about cod and bass and other fish, of which they took good store...” (Bradford 11).
Explanation:
The Puritans were the early settlers that came to the colonies to escape religious persecution from the Church of England. Most of them also arrived in the American colonies to start a new life and begin a life of religious freedom away from the power of the Catholic Church system that governs their everyday life.
Being "industrious" means to be able to do things on their own, learn if they can't do any work, and be dependent on their ability for the sustenance of their lives. The Puritans were industrious in that they work hard for their food, their survival and also made it a point that everyone contributes the same amount of work and ability, thereby ensuring no one lags or is lazy.
The one example that shows how the Puritans were industrious is that they practice/ learn fishing, be it cod, bass, or other fishes, and learned to store them properly. This shows their ability and knowledge to do things on their own and make it a point that they eat out of their efforts.

Answer:
Uses precise language to describe what Tan saw.
Explanation:
The short narrative essay "Fish Cheeks" by Amy Tan recounts the Christmas Eve dinner that her family had arranged with the minister's family in their home. Being a Chinese in America, Amy recounts how she was left anxious about inviting the boy who's her crush and his family over for dinner and worries that he might think them inferior.
The given line from the short essay is Amy describing what she saw when her mother was preparing for the dinner. Her mother's act of removing <em>"black veins out of the backs of fleshy prawns"</em> presents <u>the use of precise language that describes what she saw her mother do</u>.
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
