Question

Read the paragraph.

Rita did not care what her parents had said last night; she was glad things were changing. They might be willing to overlook the ratty textbooks and dingy classrooms at the old high school, but Rita was glad she and her classmates would be attending Somerset High in the fall. The first few days would be terrifying; Rita could barely imagine what she would wear or say. She knew people would protest outside, but she also knew she could prove herself among the white kids. She looked forward to her first new textbook, her first test, and her first “A.”

What historical reality is represented in this fictional paragraph about the 1960s?

political action taken over segregation
youths’ rebellion during this decade
educational testing during this era
mixed reactions to racial integration

Answer 1

I think that it may be the second one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rita spoke about how people would protest. She especially added in her friends which are high schoolers. In the 1960s we would consider them (youths'). Therefore my guess would be B.

Answer 2

the answer is d. mixed reactions to racial integration
