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?

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.

Why does the author feel that students should study both good and bad
Sholpan [36]

Hey There!

I believe the answer you are looking for is;

- Students will be able to appreciate and better  understand Shakespeare's successes by examining  his failures.

I have not read your text, so I cannot be 100% positive but this seems the most logical. Authors feel the need to share that not everything they have done was a success, and its okay to fail. You grow from failure and learn from it. All these famous writers have failed works that they used to improve their good works.

I hope I helped, Five stars & Brainliest is always appreciated.

Have a nice day.

ANSWER ASAP: Which identifies the sentence that includes a gerund?
11111nata11111 [884]
The answer should be 
" Her only regret was not dancing at the wedding "
Because a Gerund is an is a verb that functions as a noun. Wedding is a gerund because the word " Wed " is a verb e.g. " I am going to wed her " so when you add the " ing " it becomes a noun e.g. " I am going to a wedding "
That's why the last choice is the best one
Hope this helps!
