Answer: C) “I’m a person who couldn’t ride a public bus when she first arrived, and now I’m someone who watches tractor pulls on obscure cable channels.”

Explanation:

When using satire for humour, one uses ironies, reversals, exaggeration and ridicule in such a way that the situation is funny in its unexpectedness.

In this excerpt, the woman could not do such a simple American thing as riding a public bus but she is now so in tune with American culture that she watches tractor pulls on obscure cable channels.

This reversal in situation shows satire as when she first came to the US, she would not have expected to be doing such things as watching tractor pulls in the future.

In the face of conflict or adversity, what causes some individuals to prevail while others fail?
Rzqust [24]

It is a matter of individual will power and the ability to fight against the odds.

Explanation:

While the way one person responds to adversary conditions has a lot to do with their situation of privilege against the adversary, it also has to do with the way they are conditioned as people.

Some people react better to such conflicts because they are either used to facing such high pressure situations or have mental fortitude for it.

It is also to be considered however that different things affect people differently and there is no way of knowing how one would react to such situation when it comes to it.
