It shows her independence by showing her independence
Answer:
Which sentence from "In with the New" includes a stated character trait? "To brighten the mood, Samantha folded her napkin and crammed it on her head so she looked a bit like Curious George wearing a pirate hat." "Samantha made a lot of jokes. Some of them were bad, but she made them from kindness. She made them to make people feel better." "When Samantha saw the girl’s visible distress, she flashed back to her own first day at school a year ago." "Samantha had arrived at school in black and blended in pretty well in the dreary hallways, holding her head down, hoping no one would notice her."
Hope it helps ;)
I believe the correct answer would be A
the statement that takes a position on an issue or controversy
The claim is the main idea of the text. It is what the argumentative text is trying to prove. The claim takes a position on an issue. An example of a claim would be "Students should be given a study hall period during the school day, even if it means reducing the regular class times." This statement takes a position on the topic of study halls in schools. The rest of the options are all other elements of an argumentative text, but they do not describe the claim.
