They don't ask for ransom because they want money right away so they can eat.

<h3>Why do they need money right away?</h3>
  • The men say they are very hungry, but they don't have any money to buy food.
  • They can't get any kind of donation either and the hunger is getting hard to bear.
  • For this reason, they decide to rob a rich white man, so they would have immediate money to satisfy their hunger.

The hunger is so violent that they don't even realize they can get more money by keeping the man kidnapped and asking for a ransom payment.

This question is about "Why you Reckon" written by Langston Hughes, who was an author who used to portray the challenges of black society.

This can be seen by his frequent use of the word 'madman" <span>when he criticizes himself: "I was smoking like a madman"</span>

Which paragraph provides the BEST Variety in sentence patterns
andrezito [222]

The paragraph that provides the best variety in sentence patterns is B. my cousin the one who lives in Japan just sent me a text message she is excited about traveling and mentioned she would like to see various places including New York and the Grand Canyon.

In this paragraph, the use of compound and complex sentences make it more varied than the other options. In the first sentence, the word <em>who</em> introduces a dependent clause within the main clause that is <em>my cousin sent me a text message.</em> The second sentence is a compound sentence since it contains two Verbal phrases, <em>mentioned and would like to see</em>, joined by the connector <em>and. </em>
