Setting in We've Got a Job

Question 10 • SHS Alt English 4 S1 - 2021

Which excerpt from We’ve Got a Job best expresses Audrey’s bravery?

Answer

“As the daughter of activists, Audrey learned and lived many lessons about racism and witnessed the battles her parents and their friends fought.”

“Each afternoon, when Audrey came home from Center Street Elementary School, she did her chores, played with other kids in the neighborhood”

“Audrey knew that this attack against civil rights activists was far from unique. Many black people called their hometown ‘Bombingham.’”

“Audrey was the youngest of three to four thousand black children who marched, protested, sang, and prayed their way to jail.”

Explanation

Choice D best expresses Audrey’s bravery because it shows her taking part in a dangerous protest and going to jail alongside thousands of other Black children. The words “marched, protested, sang, and prayed” describe her courageous actions. The other excerpts give background about Audrey or Birmingham but do not show her directly acting bravely.
