Question

Making Bread by Wilma Jenkins

I remember when I was a child visiting my grandmother and watching her bake bread. She would take a little "starter" yeast from the bread she'd made the day before and use it to make the day's new bread. Back then, the phrase "our daily bread" had a powerfully true meaning. Her making bread day was usually Saturday, but sometimes Friday too. She wanted to have fresh bread for supper on Sunday. Some days she would even let me knead the dough before baking it it. I have forgotten most of the secrets of her bread-making, but I haven't forgotten those special days we spent together.

How do these two accounts differ?

A The long passage is shows the wonder of childhood, while the shorter passage is more like a recipe.The long passage is shows the wonder of childhood, while the shorter passage is more like a recipe.

Answer 1

The long passage relates to emotional memories of time spent with the author's grandmother during bread-making, and there seems to be a contrast with a shorter passage not provided, likely missing the personal depth. Options provided point to option B as the most fitting, with other options either being factually incorrect or not substantiated by the given text.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student appears to be comparing two passages which discuss the memories associated with bread-making. One passage seems to be a nostalgic recollection of time spent with a grandmother, characterized by the emotional and familial aspects of the bread-making experience, filled with personal and evocative details. This fits with option B, which suggests that the longer passage includes emotional memories of the process of bread-making, and the shorter passage might represent a less detailed or second-hand account lacking these personal connections. However, there seems to be a discrepancy in the question as it does not provide the short passage to compare with the long passage.

Option A is inaccurate as no recipe-like passage is provided. Option C is incorrect because the longer passage is not technical but emotional and nostalgic. Option D does not fit the provided passage as there is no clear distinction that it's an old lady's memory versus a young child's memory. The context of the question indicates that the passage leans heavily on the personal experience and sentimentality associated with bread-making, rather than technical details or a recipe-like format.
