Read the excerpt from Enrique’s Journey. He was five years old when his mother left him. Now he is almost another person. In the

window glass, he sees a battered young man, scrawny and disfigured. It angers him, and it steels his determination to push northward. Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars." Children from Central America have been making that journey, often without their parents, for two decades. But lately something has changed, and the predictable flow has turned into an exodus. Three years ago, about 6,800 children were detained by United States immigration authorities and placed in federal custody; this year, as many as 90,000 children are expected to be picked up.How do details from the excerpts support the author’s purpose?

A parallel that can be traced about the excerpt from Enrique's Journey that appears in the book Children of the Drug Wars by author Damon Barett and the information about migrating without the parents of Central America to North America is that the abandonment of these children by part of their parents or guardians is a great motivation for them not to return to their country of origin but to keep going north. The escape of a violent past and abandonment with the parents serves as an incentive for these children to travel to the north of the American continent

What do readers learn about the narrator based on his
Nady [450]

What do readers learn about the narrator based on his reaction to the conflict?

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon."

Then I saw the dead god. He was sitting in his chair, by the window, in a room I had not entered before and, for the first moment, I thought that he was alive. Then I saw the skin on the back of his hand—it was like dry leather. The room was shut, hot and dry—no doubt that had kept him as he was. At first I was afraid to approach him—then the fear left me. He was sitting looking out over the city—he was dressed in the clothes of the gods. His age was neither young nor old—I could not tell his age. But there was wisdom in his face and great sadness. You could see that he would have not run away. He had sat at his window, watching his city die—then he himself had died. But it is better to lose one's life than one's spirit—and you could see from the face that his spirit had not been lost. I knew, that, if I touched him, he would fall into dust—and yet, there was something unconquered in the face.
