40 Points Question!!!!!

Which sentences from the biography best support Asher's analysis? Select two options.

A) "Having avoided the fate of many other migrants, Enrique reaches Ixtepec, a southern crossroads in Oaxaca, the next state north, 285 miles into Mexico."

B) "Two of them are too frightened to go into town. They offer Enrique 20 pesos and ask him to buy food. If he will bring it back, they will share it with him."

C) "About two hundred street gangsters in Chiapas share the rolling criminal enterprise."

D) "He stops at a barbershop. His hair is curly and far too long. It is an easy tip-off. People here tend to have straighter hair."

E) "'¡Órale, jefe!' he says, using a phrase Oaxacans favor. 'Hey, chief!' He mutes his flat Central American accent and speaks softly and singsongy, like an Oaxacan."

Answer:

He stops at a barbershop. His hair is curly and far too long. It is an easy tip-off. People here tend to have straighter hair."

Step-by-step explanation:

The above excerpt shows how difficult it was to interact with the local population in Oaxaca, especially when an individual, like Enrique, was very different from the natives and seemed to have an exotic experience for them, which highlighted him and did not allow him to fit in. Knowing this and needing to interact and fit in with the population, Enrique, through his intelligence and resourcefulness, realized that it would be positive if he cut his big curly hair, to look more like the local population and to be so out of place among the natives, who used to have straight and shorter hair.
