<u>From the excerpt we can see the woman is exaggerating her movements and actions, which is most clearly seen in the last line "She spoke with great distinctness, moving her lips meticulously, as if in parlance with the deaf."</u>
<u>She is exaggerating her movement of the lips and accenting of the words in order to try to prove what she says and underline its importance, even to hide her real thoughts. </u>
<u>We also see she does this for her own enjoyment and exposure with the line "extended her hand at the length of her arm and held it so for all the world to see, until the Negro took it, shook it, and gave it back to her."</u>

"Barrio Boy" is an autobiography of<em> Ernesto Galarza, </em>which was published in <em>1971. </em>He recounts his travel memories during the Mexican Revolution–of how his family traveled towards California due to the maltreatment of Mexicans in Mexico.
Upon trying to adapt to the American society, Ernesto and his mother discovered the<em> indoor toilet in a hotel located in Nogales.</em> The hotel clerk most likely suspected that Ernesto and his mother could not understand what the sign says because of their<u> lack of knowledge on indoor toilets.</u> <u>The hotel clerk then gave them further instructions on what to do</u>.

Answer:
B. It shows that Douglass's new awareness of how owners maintain control over slaves allows him to better understand how to improve his situation.
Explanation:
Frederick Douglass was an American African man born into slavery. He later learned to read and write, later gaining his freedom and became a huge abolitionist working for the freedom and rights of his fellow black people. His memoir "Narrative of The life of Frederick Douglass" became one of the foremost important documentation of a slave and in general, the slavery system.
The given excerpt is from when Douglass was a slave in the household of the Aulds. There, Mrs. Sophia Auld being unfamiliar with having a slave was surprisingly good to him. She even taught him how to read and learn the alphabet, Douglass wrote "<em>she very kindly commenced to teach me the A, B, C. After I had learned this, she assisted me in learning to spell words of three or four letters"</em>. But then her husband came to know about it and prevented her from continuing this education, "<em>telling her, among other things, that it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read.</em>"
This is when Douglass realized that education is what a slave needs to get equal with the white masters, admitting that his "<em>youthful understanding had struggled, but struggled in vain</em>". But Mr. Auld's prevention of his education made him more aware of the slave owners' authority over their slaves and it was this moment that he understood what he needed to improve his situation.
