Answer:
In this excerpt from <em>Raymond's Run</em> Squeaky's descrption of her father shows that <em>she admires her father's natural running ability.</em> <u>The correct answer is the second one.</u>
Explanation:
In these lines, the reader can realize how proud Squeaky is of her father; she even jokes about him winning even in an imaginary race with him doing the less effort ("<em>and him running with his hands in his pockets and whistling</em>"). She says her father would win even if she had two-fire-hydran head start. She sounds amazed and proud by her father's running ability.
The first answer is also true, but I don't feel it is accurate enough because the tone of the lines is very joyful, she doesn't care that her father is a better runner than her, on the contrary <u>she sounds glad.</u>
Edgar Allan Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death" In writing a story of this nature, Poe would have considered such historical examples as the Black Death or the bubonic plague of the Middle Ages as well as the cholera epidemics that ravaged Philadelphia in the 1790's and Baltimore in his own lifetime. However, "The Wife of His Youth" follows Mr. Ryder, a bi-racial man who was born and reared free before the Civil War. He heads the "Blue Veins Society", a social organization for colored people in a northern town; the membership consists of people with a high proportion of European ancestry, who look more white than black. The organization's name stemmed from the joke that one would have to be so white (to be a member) that veins could be seen through the skin.
