The correct answer is A. That she is ashamed of how poor her family is

Explanation:

"Everyday Use" is a short story written by Alice Walker, this story explores different issues related to family, traditions and cultural identity by three main characters Mama an afro-American woman and her two daughters Dee and Maggie who have different perspectives from their family and the way tradition and identity should be preserved.

In the case of the excerpt presented, the narrator explains the old house of the family burned and because of this, the family moved to a new house. However, Dee does not like the new house besides this, she expresses she will still visit her family but never take her friends to the house. The election of words such as "tear it down" and "no matter where we "chose" to leave" show Dee mainly hates the situation in which her family lives and it is ashamed of the conditions in which they lived, because of this she rejects taking other people to the house. Thus, this excerpt mainly reflects Dee is ashamed of how poor her family is.

honestly, school in itself just seems to be a huge waste of time. a lot of people graduate but still end up not doing anything in college anyways, which really makes the whole point of graduating seem useless. i'd rather not bring anyone's hopes up then. what i'd recommend is for whoever's reading this to simply drop out.

i mean, kanye did it. he said something along the lines of, "don't let society tell you what to do." now, he's obviously a very successful person, and since his album is called the college dropout i guess he never really had to go through all that nonsense in order to become a millionaire. the same goes for anyone else then.

everyman: morality play

which phrase in this excerpt from the play everyman refers to god's judgment of people's souls after their death?

messenger: . .

ye think sin in the beginning full sweet,

which in( the end) causeth thy soul to weep,

when the body lieth in clay.

here shall you see how fellowship and jollity,

both strength, pleasure, and beauty,

will fade from thee as flower in may.

for ye shall hear, how our heavenly king

calleth everyman to a (general reckoning):

give audience, and hear what he doth say.

god: i perceive here in my majesty,

how that all the creatures be to me unkind,

living without dread in worldly prosperity:

of (ghostly sight) the people be so blind,

drowned in sin, they know me not for their god;

in worldly riches is all their mind,

they fear not( my righteousness), the sharp rod;

(my law that i shewed), when i for them die

hopefully this !
