Explanation:
"Raymond's Run" is a short story by Toni Cade Bambara. It is narrated from Squeaky's perspective. She is Raymond's sister and is beautifully loyal to her brother, not accepting anyone saying anything to him about his being different. <u>She is brave and feisty, ready to pick up a fight with anyone, including the girl mentioned in the excerpt we are analyzing here.</u>
<u>Once they compete, Squeaky begins to admire Gretchen. Squeaky, being strong and honest herself, admires those same qualities in others. Gretchen put up a fight and tried her best during the race. For that reason, she has gained Squeaky's respect.</u>
Answer:
C. Context clues
Explanation:
Context clues are <em>hints found within </em>a sentence, paragraph, or passage that a reader can use to understand the meanings of new or unfamiliar words. Context clues can also take the form of synonyms, antonyms, word-structure clues, comparisons (such as metaphors and similes), and contrasts.
There is extraneous information in the diagram. There is duplicate information where you have... There are rivers flowing beneath our feet... a myth? Can stay because it’s simplified. The information ...Have you ever heard that there are rivers of water flowing underground? Do you think it’s true? should be deleted because it’s duplicating the simplified statement prior. Also, Some rivers, such as the Alpaha River in northern Florida, USA,can disappear underground during low flow periods isn’t relevant to the rest of the diagram. Generally water underground is more like water in a sponge is inaccurate and should be deleted. It states in the diagram later on that the water underground is a filler between the rock particles and soil. I hope this helped you. Sorry I didn’t see it sooner.
