Why does the author include details about the narrator trying on Meg’s clothes in "The All-American Slurp"?
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

to emphasize the narrator’s desire to dress like her classmates

Explanation:

<u>It is said in the story that Meg was dressed like all the other girls – this meant jeans instead of skirts, especially for riding a bike, and often a T-shirt. </u>

When the author tries these clothes at Meg’s house, she says she could “almost pass for an American”, meaning this is how she saw the majority of the children born and raised in the US to dress and what she regarded as the American clothes. <u>This part explains how much the author wants to feel part of the crowd and to dress like everyone else.</u>

Instead of jeans, the author had to wear a navy skirt her mother bought her. The family did not have money for different clothes, and it is evident this type of dressing, while common in China, was not as common in the American school author attended.

<u>The clothes in the story are the symbol for standing out and the wish for belonging.</u>

Write a paragraph in which you make an argument either that the civil rights movement has completed its work,or that more work n
ipn [44]
Here,

Is the civil rights movement complete? Honestly no I don't think it is. The world is still very corrupt and it's not just black's at this time, it's everyone. The main focus would be making sure everyone is treated equally, there's police officer's beating down people and taking their authority to news levels when the things people are doing aren't that major. The civil rights movement was all about equality between race.. but maybe it should have been about more than just that.

Agree or disagree for bullying
adell [148]
I know this is going to sound crazy and stupid but I agree I don't bully others nor do I encourage others to bully but it is something that makes us who we are its pointless to protest against bullying because it will never end we just gotta learn how to suck it up unless the bully is physically hurting you then its another story
