Which sentence from “Ellis Island” is a major supporting detail?

English
1 answer:
pentagon [3]2 years ago
3 0

A supporting detail is used to validate a claim to prove that the claim is indeed true.

A claim on the other hand is a statement made by an author about something which can either be true or false.

Let me give you an example of a claim and how supporting details can be used:

  • All tall boys are smarter than shorter boys
  • America has a population of 30 million people
  • The Earth is round

Now, because i made these claims, i have to provide supporting details to backup this claim.

To do this, i would have to bring reputable sources which contains the figures which would be my supporting details.

I could bring the population figures from an independent reliable source to prove that America indeed has a population of 30 million people.

Please note that your question is incomplete which made me to give you a general overview so that you can understand the concept.

Answer:

The part of the plot that is revealed in this excerpt is:

C) a resolution in which the Lins have become the hosts.

Explanation:

The excerpt we are analyzing here belongs to the short story "The All-American Slurp", by Lensey Namioka. <u>The narrator is a girl from the Lin family, from China.</u> The Lins have moved to the U.S. and are struggling to adjust themselves to the completely different culture they now find themselves immersed in. <u>They are invited to dine at the Gleasons', but their Chinese eating etiquette is perceived as rude by the American characters. The narrator is embarrassed at this moment as well as others, seeing her family as inadequate. </u>

<u>However, once the Gleasons become the guests and the Lins become the hosts, we are presented with a resolution to that conflict. The narrator realizes her family is not inadequate.</u><u> Now, the Gleasons are the ones struggling to eat the Chinese meal. That does not make them inferior, the same way the Lins are also not inferior in any manner. They simply come from different backgrounds, having distinct habits and behaviors.</u>
