Answer:
Watch the movie and then buy his sister a gift she will enjoy.
Explanation:
The given passage from "The Quinceanera" shows how the narrator was in a dilemma on what to do- either get his sister a gift or go to the movies which he had already planned to see. He knows he has to get the gift but he also did not want to miss the movie.
And then, he mentioned that his sister loved movies so maybe he can get "two birds with one stone". He will go to the movies and get her move tickets for a gift, which simplifies his dilemma. So, going along the narrative, we can best predict that he will go to the movies and then get her a gift she will enjoy.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
Answer:
1st: the Empress Dowager Cixi dies.
2nd: The Chinese Revolution overthrew China’s last imperial dynasty
3rd: The Nationalist Party, also known as The Kuomintang is the oldest political party of the Republic of China. It was founded on August 25th, 1912 by Sun Yat-sen and won the first election in 1912.
4th: The death of Sun Yat-sen in 1925 brings Chiang Kai-shek to the fore of the Kuomintang.
5th: In 1927, after jointly defeating the Northern warlords, the Chinese Communist Party organises a strike against Chiang Kai-shek.
6th: In 1927 the difference in thinking between the Communist Chinese Party and the Kuomintang became a war. The Chinese Civil War breaks out for the legitimacy of the government.
7th: Japan gradually occupies more and more of China – in 1932 Japan invades Manchuria (Northern China). Once again the CPC and the Kuomintang united in order to defend their homeland but the two sides still hated and mistrusted each other.

Answer:
The two ideas from the setting that influence the way characters act in this passage are:
B. the idea that people should not argue in public
E. the custom of saving women and children first
Explanation:
"A Night to Remember" is a novel by Walter Lord which gives an account of the disastrous first trip of the Titanic. As we know, the ship began its journey toward America but ended up sinking after a tragic collision with an iceberg in 1912.
The fact that the story is set in 1912 is of great importance to understand how and why the characters behave in certain ways. Society at the beginning of the 20th century lived under different, more strict, social rules than it does now. People would, for instance, avoid any sort of disagreement in public, since it was frowned upon. That is represented in the first fragment: "Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Meyer of New York felt so self-conscious arguing about it in public that they went down to their cabin."
It is also important to understand that, in sinking ships, it is a rule to save children and women first. The story being set on a ship explains the second fragment: "When they say ‘Women and children to the boats,’ you must go when your turn comes. I'll stay here with Jack Thayer. We’ll be all right.”
