This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read this excerpt from We've Got a Job: The 1963 Children's March.  

One child in the neighborhood owned a bicycle. Wash and his sister had a wagon. For Christmas one year, they each received a pair of iron roller skates. When those wore out, Wash said, "we would take an old broom and turn it upside down, and that would be our horse. And we would get a coat hanger and make a cowboy gun."  

How does this excerpt help readers make a personal connection to the story?  

A. by offering facts about urban neighborhoods

B. by offering details about how Wash learned to roller skate

C. by offering information about Wash's toys

D. by offering information about youth violence

Answer:

The excerpt helps readers make a personal connection to the story:

C. by offering information about Wash's toys

Explanation:

The excerpt we are analyzing here offers details about Wash's infancy, more specifically about his toys and games. Commonly, information like this allows readers to form a personal connection with the character (in this case, a non-fictional one). Readers are reminded of their own experiences growing up, even if they were not exactly the same. People in general can relate to having to use their imagination as children to transform simple objects into toys, or to wanting to have toys but not being able to afford them.

What is the symbolism of Dana losing her arm in the book Kindred By Octavia Butler
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

It symbolically represents the power that Rufus had as Dana's master and the lingering effect that living under the white master's thumb had on enslaved people and their children.

Explanation:

Significantly, Dana seems to lose her arm because Rufus keeps hold of her wrist when she transports back to the present.

1. For the people responsible for the development. It says, “Much of that anger is reserved for the forces of development.”

2. It has changed from being naturally beautiful to having lots of buildings and cities. It says, “which have transformed Florida from a quaint tropical postcard where Hiaasen grew up, to urban sprawl, strip malls and skyscrapers.”

3. 450 acres. It says, “developers pave over 450 acres of green space a day.”

4. Oranges and handguns. It says, “We don’t produce anything except, you know, oranges and handguns.”

5. As therapy, so he could channel his anger by making the bad guys get what they deserve. It says, “‘Therapy,’ says Hiaasen laughing. ‘Actually, with the novels, you have this wonderful opportunity to write your own endings—to have the bad guys get not only exactly what they deserve, but in some poetic, you know, miserable way.’”

Btw... for the huge side next to number 1 put He likes the natural side of Florida and is very angry with the people responsible for its development for taking over the green spaces and natural beauty and changing Florida from a tropical paradise into an urban sprawl.
