Someone please help i failed this exam yesterday with a 44! Read the quotation by Dorothea Lange about the photo “Migrant Mother” from Years of Dust.

I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother, as if drawn by a magnet. I do not remember how I explained my presence or my camera to her, but I do remember she asked me no questions. . . . I did not ask her name or history. She told me her age, that she was thirty-two. She said that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields, and birds that the children had killed. She had just sold the tires from her car to buy food. There she sat in that lean-to tent with her children huddled around her, and seemed to know that my pictures might help her, and so she helped me. There was a sort of equality about it.



How does this quotation appeal to readers’ emotions?

It appeals to readers’ delight by showing the joy of family life.
It appeals to readers’ sympathy by describing difficult times.
It appeals to readers’ fear by explaining a natural disaster.
It appeals to readers’ sense of humor by retelling a funny story.

Answer:

Your answer will be B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mother is going through issues at the time by struggling with food! And her and her children live in a tent. This gives away the impression of sympathy for her and her childrens financial issues. Such as her car tires being sold to provide for her and her family.

-Hope this helps feel free to ask questions!

-Have a great day!!
