sed to take it off as soon as I stepped outside the school gates because man oh man do you need guts to get on public transportation with it on. At the end of the school day the trains would be absolutely packed with schoolkids. I could keep wearing it if I hopped on with a group of Hidaya students because I wouldn't feel so exposed. But the problem was that I had to change trains to get home and there was no way I had the courage to go the distance alone with it on. Which phrases from the text best show the narrator's attitude? Select three options. "need guts" "outside the school gates" "group of Hidaya students" "so exposed" "no way I had the courage"

Answer:

"need guts"

"so exposed"

"no way I had the courage"

Explanation:

Randa Abdel-Fattah's debut novel "Does My Head Look Big in This?" tells the story of a young Palestinian-Australian girl who is in a conflict between her traditional beliefs and her adoptive home of Australia. The story delves into the courageous girl's life, and how Muslim girls who are in a dilemma between maintaining their beliefs and trying to fit in with the Australian people can relate to her own experience.

In the given excerpt from the text, the speaker admits she did put on the hijab within the school's premises. But once out of that atmosphere, she would remove them in order to blend in with the common population. Certain words like<em> "need guts", "so exposed",</em> and <em>"no way I had the courage"</em> show how she feels intimidated, weak, or even unsure of keeping the hijab and be open about her religion and identity. The phrases show her insecurity over her true self and belonging. So, she'd instead remove the hijab and 'pretend' to be like a 'normal' Australian teen.

Answer: In this passage, Lady Macbeth expresses her feeling that she and Macbeth have gotten what they wanted, to be king and queen of Scotland, but they are not truly happy.

Read these two sentences:
ozzi
The correct answer is D. however.
You want to show contrast between these two sentences, and the only word among these which can do that is <em>however. </em>The sentences are each other's opposites - even though there is an increase of eagles in the Southeast, there is still a decline in their numbers overall.

"To say that Ivan Ilych married because he fell in love with Praskovya Fedorovna and found that she sympathized with his views o
Nata [24]

Answer:

Social circle versus money

Explanation:

To start with Jane Austen´s Pride & Prejudice, which is much more than a love story. Jane Austen clearly shows her ideas on marriage in a Male-centered England, where the relation between money and marriage is quite clear. This is particularly obvious in the mother-daughter relationship in which the mother pressures the daughter into marriage because of financial profits.

In the Death of Ivan Ilych by Leo Tolstoy there is no aversive element in the decision of Ilych to marry Fedorovna, therefore it is a more natural and almost casual act.
