Question

Read the excerpt from Fast Food Nation.

Up and down Academy Boulevard, along South Nevada, Circle Drive, and Woodman Road, teenagers like Elisa run
the fast food restaurants of Colorado Springs, Fast food kitchens often seem like a scene from Bugsy Malone, a

workforce so dominated by adolescents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Eric Schlosser effectively built his argument in this excerpt from his book “Fast Food Nation.” He uses analogical evidence to help the reader visualize his point about the workers.

So the right answer is option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In his book, he talks about how Colorado Springs grew over a year. Her mentions about the expansion and introduction of businesses and also how it attracted people to move in and take up jobs at this place. The author then draws comparison between fast food centres and the scene from Bugsy Malone and he comments that "children" own businesses in that place. This is how he uses analogy for readers to understand and visualize what he wants them to understand.
