Hello. I know you've already provided the answer. I'd like to confirm it and offer further explanation.
Answer:
The statement that best summarizes the central idea of this paragraph is:
2. America is a united country despite its cultural differences.
Explanation:
The paragraph we are analyzing here is an excerpt from the article "A Quilt of a Country", by author Anna Quindlen. Quindlen discusses how America is interestingly contradictory.
Just like a quilt, America is a result of dissimilar parts all patched together. All kinds of people, having to live in such close proximity, end up addressing one another with prejudice and even hatred. However, in spite of these differences and unlike other countries, America remains united. In the excerpt, the author mentions different groups and how they are frequently "on the verge of fisticuffs". Still, they are "impossibly interwoven". Therefore, the cultural differences may make things a bit more difficult, but they do not break this nation apart.

Answer:
She understands that her hair can prevent her from helping her family and that is why she starts to change her thoughts about her hair.
Explanation:
This question is about "The Breadwinner"
Parvana needs to cut all her hair and although it left her unsatisfied in the beginning, she understands that this is the price she must pay to help her family and that hair is no more important than the family she loves. This is because Parvana lives in Afghanistan who lives under the Taliban regime, which oppresses and does not allow women's freedom. Parvana is primarily responsible for supporting the family and therefore needs to cut her hair and pretend to be a boy in order for the Taliban to allow her to continue working to support the family.
