<u>______________________________________________</u>

Thanhha Lai was born in the country of Vietnam. She and her family escaped to Alabama at the end of the war. She learned English from fourth-graders there, and then spent the next ten years improving her grammar. She began her journalism career as a reporter at The Orange County Register. She shifted to fiction, earning an MFA from New York University and having short stories published in a variety of periodicals and anthologies.

Then followed "Inside Out & Back Again," a verse book that won a National Book Award and a Newbery Honor based in part on her youth as a refugee in Alabama. The following book was "Listen, Slowly," a middle grade fiction about a young Vietnamese-American girl.

It's a stark and honest tale that follows Hà as she leaves behind the only home she's ever known to journey to America by boat. Hà and her family struggle to find their footing in the United States, despite the fact that she has left the conflict behind. They're finally gaining their bearings towards the end of the year and as the book closes everyone clutching onto faith that things would get better.

The narrative takes place over the course of a year and is told in brief free-verse poems: As the Communists take over her hometown of Saigon in 1975, 10-year-old Ha and her family are forced to flee Vietnam. Ha's family arrives in Alabama with a sponsor family after covertly escaping by ship and residing in two temporary refugee camps.

They must learn a new language, attend school, look for jobs, establish friends, cope with bullying and mistrust  and figure out how to become American citizens. They must also say a final, symbolic goodbye to Ha's father, who has been missing in action for the past ten years.

Tenacity, courage, and intelligence are among Ha's characteristics in Inside Out and Back Again. She's also hesitant and frightened, which is understandable considering her family's situation.

Inside Out and Back Again's dilemma is that the Vietnam War was approaching Saigon, forcing them to flee to Alabama. Inside Out and Back Again begins with Ha arriving at her new school, unable to communicate with anybody and being ridiculed because she is different from everyone else.

Her migration to America brings with it a slew of new obstacles. All refugees confront obstacles such as bullying, prejudice, and a lack of language skills. Inside Out and Back Again is a storey about a refugee's common experience. These difficulties are depicted in Ha's narrative.

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

D) The unnamed passenger is courageous

Explanation:

"The Hunting of the Snark" (1876) is a poem by Lewis Carroll (also the author of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland"). The poem is fantastic epic tale of nine tradesmen and a beaver of their adventure to hunt an imaginary creature "snark" which according to the poem may become very dangerous called as Boojum.

Options B and C are not correct because the Bellman (the leader) is describing the qualities of an unnamed passenger who forgets things easily and has even forgot his own name. But bellman tells that what is most important is the fact that he has courage, that is the most important thing for hunting a snark.

Option A is not correct because the line is about courage and not about skill. Moreover the unnamed man is a tradesman or a passenger and not a fighter.

Despite being aware of the disadvantages of junk food,why do we eat them?​
nasty-shy [4]

The consumption of junk food can be explained in two ways: finances and comfort. With finances, junk food is generally cheaper than healthier foods, thus making unhealthy food more appealing, especially to families or individuals in tight financial situations. In regards to comfort, the consumption of tasty food releases chemicals in your brain like dopamine and seratonin (happy hormones) which then cause your brain to crave them more.
