In the spirit world, the trickster god Raven grew bored. He decided to leave and fly over the earth, but he found it was in total darkness. The selfish Sky Chief had been hoarding daylight from the world. Raven wanted to be able to see the earth as he flew over it, so he decided to play a trick on the chief and steal the light. Raven crept into the chief’s dwelling. He appeared as a baby, with raven hair and black eyes. The chief's daughter adopted the child, never knowing that he was in fact Raven the trickster. —"The Raven and the First Men: The Beginnings of the Haida"
What inference can be made based on the daughter’s actions in this passage?
A. The daughter was looking for a baby.
B. The daughter does not listen to her father.
C. The daughter also wanted to steal the light.
D. The daughter is caring toward other.
Answer:
D. The daughter is caring toward others.
Explanation:
From the excerpt, the inference that can be gotten from the story is that the daughter of the Sky Chief is caring towards others because quite unlike her father, she is willing to show compassion to others, even a baby she does not know.
It shows her tender heart and compassion towards others as she adopted the child even though it was really Raven the trickster.

Answer: Metaphor
Explanation:
A Metaphor helps describe a character or variable by relating it to another character or Variable that is seemly unrelated to it but bears certain characteristics to it for comparison sake.
It essentially says one thing is another so that the original thing can be understood better.
For example, "every family has a black sheep". It is not saying that every family will have a sheep which is black but rather saying that at least one member of each family behaves differently from the rest.
In the above extract from Toni Cade Bambara's short story "Raymond's Run", Squeaky who is Raymond's sister is using a metaphor to describe her brother's penchant for using the curb as a Circus clown uses a rope high in the air.
