Assuming the text is "Learning How to Code-Switch: Humbling, but Necessary" (2013) and you had to choose between the following claims:
<em>A. Code-switching keeps people from expressing themselves by promoting one correct style of communication.</em>
<em>B. It is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity.</em>
<em>C. The United States consists of great cultural variety and no one should be discriminated against for speaking a certain way.</em>
<em>D. Many successful people have used code-switching, but it is unfair to expect minorities to have multiple communication styles.</em>
Deggans' thesis is that it is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity (B).
<u>Code-switching</u> means alternating between languages or communication styles according to the context (cultural, professional, casual, etc.).
Deggans' testimony shows that being able to code-switch is what has helped him to integrate social groups which were different from the poor black neighborhood he came from, while maintaining his identity.
This answer is supported by such such quotes as:
- "expertly navigating another culture wasn’t a rejection of where I’d come from or a signal that I was any less authentically black;"
- "it’s a reminder to be fully who you are at all times, while making sure you’re understood well enough to be valued, respected and considered."

6 Jenny intends to use the lift.
Jenny WANTS TO use the lift.
The correct option is "Volunteering is a good way to make friends, help the community, and feel good."
Parallelism is achieved when the same grammar pattern is used when listing ideas. In this example, the parallel structures are "make friends, help the community and feel good" since they all use the same grammar structure: verb+object.
In the rest of the options, there is a break in the pattern so no parallelism is achived.
