Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

After two years in the computing pool, Mary Jackson received an offer to work for engineer Kazimierz Czarnecki in the 4-foot by 4-foot Supersonic Pressure Tunnel, a 60,000 horsepower wind tunnel capable of blasting models with winds approaching twice the speed of sound. Czarnecki offered Mary hands-on experience conducting experiments in the facility, and eventually suggested that she enter a training program that would allow her to earn a promotion from mathematician to engineer. Alex wants to explain why NASA conducted research in the wind tunnels.

Which quotation from Hidden Figures could best be integrated with the information from “Mary Jackson Biography" to achieve this?

Answer:

A quote from "Hidden Figures" would be appropriate to show that Mary was able to identify a flaw in the space capsule project, before any specialist in the field.

Explanation:

This quote would be appropriate to show how Mary was skilled and committed to her work, where even discrediting and facing machismo and racism, she excelled and managed to do an efficient job, even in the face of specialists who did not believe in her ability. This quote would be important in the biography, as it shows that other authors agree that Mary was a brilliant, canny and observant scientist.

I always thought I was ugly. I mean I have a small nose, big lips short hair. No more friends. Dropped out of school at 10. Yup, that's a very young age, I know. My mother kicked me out because she didn't want me to become a problem. At the time I didn't know what she mean't. So, now I am 13 hustling on the streets... More like begging.
We are immagrants from Panama, we came here for a better life, but for me it only got worse. My mother wanted me to get an education so that I could excell in life. All I have to say to m mom is that I'm truly sorry, I just didn't understand why school was so important.
It's hard out here...Not a day goes by with me not thinking about my parents and moving back in, especially in the winter. I just don't want to deal with the guilt they'd throw on me. I wouldn't be able to cope with it. So I chose to stay out here. Everyday, I'm out here begging for money. It's sad, I know, but I gotta eat somehow.
I sleep in a cardboard box, with a blanket someone gave to me in an alley. I hate Cleveland...... I hate the world.
Until one day, I went to a new location to go beg, but instead i saw a whole garden full of people! It used to be a vacant lot with trash everywhere! { I know this because my parents live here and so did I } I didn't see my parents though... They must've been at work. I even saw my old friend, Maricela! She was a drop out too. It looked like she was pregnant. I was going to go over there but I was too embarrased.
The next day I thought about going to the garden and planting something, so I'd have something to eat. Then I realized that I had no money! So I begged until I had enough money to buy seeds. So I went over to the lot and started planting.
Of course Maricela noticed me and asked me how I was...{ which was really clear} But overall, I was happy to finally be around people. One african american lady offered to help me. I think her name was Leona. I think I'm going to come here more often! This is a place where I feel I belong!
Now that Leona has helped me... She's put me back in school... Offered me a room in her apartment... And most of all, she got me off the streets and on the road to education! My parents know but still don't want me. They think I'll go back to my old ways. But this time I'm fully commited!

She always writes down everything so that she would always remember good and bad.in the story she always had to hide and be very quiet when ever the the family heard someone in the building

Meip always agreed to whatever Mr Frank asked her to do while Mr Van Daan was a very intelligent man but had given up the right of decision making in-front of his wife.

Miep was a beautiful and young woman. She was the secretary of Mr Frank. She was asked by him to help their family in times of need.

As they could not go out and were hiding underground hence Miep had to shop for the entire family.

On the other hand, Van Daan's were loved by the Frank's in the beginning but later they showed childish behavior with hints of ego and impatience.
