Question 2 • CA-Ethnic Studies

Deion is naturally tuned into other people's feelings. When his friends are happy or sad, he feels it, too. Even though many people in his community believe in holding back emotions, Deion can't help but express what he feels.Which factor is an intrinsic one shaping Deion’s personal identity?

Answer
A
the community's belief in holding back emotions
B
his natural ability to feel and express emotions
C
the way emotions are shown on TV and online
D
lessons from school about managing emotions

Explanation

An intrinsic factor comes from within a person, such as a natural trait or ability. Deion’s natural sensitivity to other people’s feelings and tendency to express his emotions are intrinsic. The community’s expectations, media portrayals, and school lessons are influences from outside him, so the correct choice is “his natural ability to feel and express emotions.”
