A. knows she will never be as fast as her father.

Answer:
Squeaky's description of her father shows readers that she:
B. admires her father’s natural running ability.
Explanation:
Squeaky, whose real name is Hazel, is the narrator and main character in the short story "Raymond's Run" by author Toni Cade Bambara.
Hazel is a very young - yet very determined - girl. She aims to do her best at every activity she pursues. Her favorite one is running, and she is constantly practicing. She likes to win, and she likes to deserve to win.
The fact that she is talking about her father like that in the excerpt shows how much she admires him. Squeaky is not humble. She knows she is good, and she is not afraid to say it. So, her acknowledging her father can beat her so easily means she has great admiration for him and his ability.
Answer:
admires her father’s natural running ability.

2. How does the use of simple animation tend to affect
the presentation of a story? For instance, Baksi first
presented an animated film version of The Lord of the
Rings in 1978. How did his use of animation affect the
story? What advantages can you think of for using
simple animation in filming some stories?
Answer: By animating The Lord of the Rings, Baksi made this wonderful story available for people of all ages. I can't imagine a 4-year-old reading the trilogy, but they might sit down to watch the animated version. One disadvantage of making a movie out of any book is that you lose different parts of the story. Advantages include: expanding your audience, bringing the story to light again, upping its popularity, and being able to bring the words on the page to life.

Read this excerpt from The People Could Fly.
Now it was funny. I never saw my passengers after that first girl. Because I took them on the nights when the moon was not showin, it was cloudy. And I always met them in the open or in a house with no light. So I never saw them, couldn't recognize them, and couldn't describe them. But I would say to them, "What you'say?" And they would say the password. Sounded like "Menare." Seemed the word came from the Bible somewhere, but I don't know. And they would have to say that word before I took them across.
Which statement best describes the speaker’s viewpoint in this passage?
He is amused at the password that has been chosen.
He wants to help people, even if he does not know them.
He wishes that he did not have to take risks to help others.
He is terrified that he will get caught crossing the river.
Answer:
He wants to help people, even if he does not know them.

Answer:
He wants to help people, even if he does not know them.

Tituba befriends a group of young, Puritan girls. Who has power in this text? Tituba? The girls? Someone else? Determine who has power in the text, and argue your position using evidence from the text.
Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which may leave my answer unspecified.
Answer:
Puritan girls have the power
Explanation:
Tituba was a woman and black slave, which puts her in a very vulnerable situation in a patriarchal and prejudiced society like the Puritans. The girls with whom she befriended, although they are devalued by society because they are women, are white and free girls who exercise a strong power over Tituba, who must be submissive and devalued in relation to girls. This shows that in this group of friends, the girls were the characters with power, being free to treat Tituba as they wished.
