Answer:

1) Edwin wants to contact his father because he has been waiting a long time to learn about his cultural heritage.

2) When he finally contacts his father, he cuts off communication with him.

3) Edwin responds this way because he is overwhelmed and somewhat scared. Scared that he may not be Native enough and also scared of what a real connection would feel like with his father.

Explanation:

This is from the book “There There: Edwin Black” written by Tommy Orange.

It is a story about a 30year old Masters Degree holder who was lives with his mother, overweight and spends majority of his time on the internet. At that time, he didn’t know who is father was and he tried searching for him on the internet.

He had been waiting to learn about his native heritage, searching for clues and trying to figure out things himself.

But after connecting with his biological father and learning about his Native background, he becomes overwhelmed and scared. He was scared that he may not be Native enough as he had imagined and also scared of how a relationship with his father would be.

Read the excerpt from Fast Food Nation.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer and Explanation:

I'll provide an answer against the statement "The fast-food industry can give valuable work experience to teenagers.”

The fast-food industry is not at all concerned with the value the experience of working in it will add to someone's life. As was stated in the text, they hire teenagers "because they are less expensive to hire than adults, but also because their youthful inexperience makes them easier to control." The experience those workers will acquire from that job is limited, probably even useless in other areas. A McDonald's employee does not learn how to cook - they can't leave McDonald's to suddenly work at a regular restaurant. They have machines beeping all around them, letting them know when the food is supposed to be ready.
