Read this excerpt about activist Dolores Huerta.

When Dolores Huerta became an activist, she had already been married and divorced, had children, and had begun a new career as a schoolteacher.

Her students were the children of farm workers. They came to school barefoot and hungry. She wanted to do more to help them. So she quit her teaching job to help their parents fight for better working conditions.

How does this excerpt help seventh graders make a personal connection to Huerta’s story?

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

: The correct answer is: By connecting readers to her students.

Explanation: The excerpt mentions that her students were children of farm workers and came to school barefoot and hungry. She wanted to do more than just be a teacher so she quit her teaching job in order to help the parents of her students fight for better working conditions. We can connect with her students by understanding that her students were very poor children and seeing this, Dolores Huerta preferred to help them improve their living conditions by helping their parents obtain more rights than continue being a teacher. She was moved by her students and devoted to this cause.
