1: What text structure is suggested by the signal words “meanwhile,” “eventually,” and “after” in paragraphs 8 and 9? From Rosa

Parks: My Story by Rosa Parks
8 Meanwhile there were people getting off the bus and asking for transfers, so that began to loosen up the crowd, especially in the back of the bus. Not everyone got off, but everybody was very quiet. What conversation there was, was in low tones; no one was talking out loud. It would have been quite interesting to have seen the whole bus empty out. Or if the other three had stayed where they were, because if they'd had to arrest four of us instead of one, then that would have given me a little support. But it didn't matter. I never thought hard of them at all and never even bothered to criticize them.


9 Eventually two policemen came. They got on the bus, and one of them asked me why I didn't stand up. I asked him, "Why do you all push us around?" He said to me, and I quote him exactly, "I don't know, but the law is the law and you're under arrest." One policeman picked up my purse, and the second one picked up my shopping bag and escorted me to the squad car. In the squad car they returned my personal belongings to me. They did not put their hands on me or force me into the car. After I was seated in the car, they went back to the driver and asked him if he wanted to swear out a warrant. He answered that he would finish his route and then come straight back to swear out the warrant. I was only in custody, not legally arrested, until the warrant was signed.

2:How does the mood change in the second paragraph?

I place my groceries on the conveyor belt and make sure that I have grabbed everything on my shopping list. It's close to dinner time, and my stomach is already starting to growl. I cannot wait to prepare a quick meal of spaghetti and meatballs. I start tapping my feet. Can't this line move any faster?


I reach into my purse to grab my wallet, but surprisingly, my hand does not wrap around the familiar bulk. I dig frantically, but it's no use. My wallet is gone! I hastily tell the cashier my situation and hightail it out of there. Grabbing my cell phone, I call my credit card company to check the activity on it.


"Thank you for calling MasterCard. This is Cindy. How can I help you?"

"I can't find my wallet! Will you check the activity on my account, please?!"

"Yes, of course. Just give me a second while I run the request. Can I put you on hold please?"

"Do I have a choice?!" I mumble to the music on hold.

"Ma'am? Someone has just made a purchase at Peggy's Nail and Spa."

My mouth drops as the news sinks in. Nancy is the only person I know who goes there and the only person who has easy access to my purse!

I cannot BELIEVE the nerve of that woman! I give her a place to stay, let her borrow $500, help her look for a job, and how does she thank me?! She steals my identity! I am going to make her PAY!!!


3: In paragraph 8, what text structure is Parks using when she writes, “Or if the other three had stayed where they were, because if they’d had to arrest four of us instead of one, then that would have given me a little support”? From Rosa Parks: My Story by Rosa Parks

8 Meanwhile there were people getting off the bus and asking for transfers, so that began to loosen up the crowd, especially in the back of the bus. Not everyone got off, but everybody was very quiet. What conversation there was, was in low tones; no one was talking out loud. It would have been quite interesting to have seen the whole bus empty out.

Answer:

1.) Sequential

2.)The mood become Frantic

3.) Problem and Solution

Explanation:

1.) After, Meanwhile and Eventually, are all transition words when telling a story so sequential would be the best answer because it's telling the story in an order.

2.) The lady goes from calm and collect waiting for the checkout but when reaching into her purse and finding her wallet gone she gets very panicked and scared not knowing where it is. So the mood become Frantic as she searches.

3.) Rosa describes how she stood up for herself. But also she wonders would could've happened if the others had stayed. She describes the problem and and it might have not been the solution the other three had wanted. but the solution for Rosa was it would've helped support her stand up for black rights. So it's problem solution

The real-life setting and surrounding circumstances of a story is called
joja [24]

Answer:     Historical context is the right answer

Explanation:

In literature including novels, poems, plays and stories, the historical context refers to the events including the social, cultural, political and economic conditions during which the story of a literary work is created or during which a story occurs and that influence multiple elements on it including the characters' behaviors and values, the theme, the development of the plot and the setting of the story itself. Additionally, this type of context differs from other types because it is based on real-life, which means the writer does not create the historical context but use real-life events and circumstances for the story. Thus, the real-life setting and surrounding circumstances of a story is the historical context.
