How does the central idea of this passage—that older generations are less excited about rebellion than younger ones—serve as social commentary? It shows how rebellions are always led by younger generations. It demonstrates how society unfairly treats older people. It demonstrates how society makes progress with each new generation. It points out the overenthusiasm and zealousness of the younger generation.
PLEASE ITS A TIMED TEST I NEED HELP
Answer:
It points out the overenthusiasm and zealousness of the younger generation.
Explanation:
Old Benjamin, the donkey, seemed quite unchanged since the Rebellion. He did his work in the same slow obstinate way as he had done it in Jones's time, never shirking and never volunteering for extra work either. About the Rebellion and its results, he would express no opinion. When asked whether he was not happier now that Jones was gone, he would say only "Donkeys live a long time. None of you has ever seen a dead donkey," and the others had to be content with this cryptic answer.
The central idea or theme of the passage illustrates that D. It points out the overenthusiasm and zealousness of the younger generation.
The central idea in a story is also the theme. It's the main idea that is in story that is conveyed to he readers by the author. It's simply what the author wants the readers to know.

In the fourth sentence of the last paragraph (“Even today . . . colleague”), the author alludes to his experiences at social functions primarily to
A - suggest that he finds assimilation more difficult in adult life than he did in college
B - question the extent to which he has succeeded in achieving his stated goal of assimilation
C - offer evidence to support his larger argument about the benefits of assimilation
D - imply that most of his colleagues are unfamiliar with Asian social customs
E - emphasize the continuity between his college and present-day identities
Answer:
B) question the extent to which he has succeeded in achieving his stated goal of assimilation
Explanation:
In these lines, the author describes how colleagues at a social gathering assume that he is married to a female Asian colleague. Their assumption provides evidence that the author is seen as part of an insular minority that reliably intermarries, a view very close to the stereotype of “the Asian-American as the perpetual foreigner” mentioned in the first sentence of the passage. This new evidence requires the author and audience to question the passage’s overarching claim that the author “washed away [his] tincture of foreignness with language.” In light of this new evidence, the author reconsiders what “true assimilation” might require.
The author makes an allusion to the experiences he has at various social functions with the aim to:
B). question the extent to which he has succeeded in achieving his stated goal of assimilation.
AllusionIn sentence four of the last paragraph, the author employs allusion and implicitly refers to his encounters at the distinct social functions in order to interrogate the limit to which he has been able to attain his target of assimilation.
This reflects in displaying how far has he been successful in adapting himself to the beliefs and cultures of the dominant culture.
Therefore, the readers are able to understand how he's adjusted irrespective of the differences in their ethnicities and heritages.
Thus, option B is the correct answer.
