Question

PARAGRAPH 126 - “Seaward Pines is a d**b school,” I blurt. “I’ll hate it. And I hate Papi, too.” PARAGRAPH 127- Roli sighs. He’s quiet for a long while, which makes me uncomfortable. My brother has always been strangely good at reading my mind. Can’t he see how awful it felt to be unimportant, to watch Papi stand there like a chump? PARAGRAPH 128- “What did you want Papi to do, Merci? Pitch a fit and blow your free ride?” PARAGRAPH 129-Without warning, tears spring to my eyes. He pretends not to notice. Instead, he cups my scalp with his enormous hand and gives a squeeze. “Try to let this idea into your thick cranium. Papi chose to be invisible today so that you won’t ever have to be.” QUESTION: What character traits best describes Merci? Use R.A.C.E.C.E to respond.

What is R.A.C.E.C.E

Answer 2

The character Merci has lots of character traits but a select few beat describe her. The character traits Merci has that best describe her are tempered and emotional. In paragraph 126 the author writes, “Seaweed Pines is a d**b school,” I blurt. “I’ll hate it. And I hate Papi too.” This statement very vividly expresses Merci’s temper cause later she regrets saying this out of rage. The later paragraph states,“Without warning tears spring into my eyes.” This sentence is only found a few sentences after the other one sited. In the first piece of evidence Merci is very angry and spiteful, though shortly after she is crying and regretful, her being emotional is very well shown with her temper and switching of emotions.
