The correct answers are: language, religion and customs.

In this excerpt from “Mericans" by Sandra Cisneros we can see many elements of cultural heritage.

The mixture of English and Spanish as in "la ofrenda box" and "the altar to La Divina Providencia" shows how Mexicans still maintaing their own language.

The dropping of money before the altar, lighting of candles and the genuflecting present their devotion to their Christian Religion.

And her kissing her thumb after the blessing expresses a custom within the Chrisitan Religion as well.

Which line best paraphrases this excerpt from “When I Have Fears That I May Cease to Be”?
Nonamiya [84]

The line that best paraphrases the excerpt is  A.  And when I think that I’ll never see you again, beautiful creature (...).

To paraphrase is to express the meaning of something by rewording it in a different way. Both the excerpt and option A express the same: that the poet is considering the possibility of never looking at the beautiful "creature" again.
