Question

i visited a northern community called attawapiskat, which is located on the james bay, and i spoke to kids, and they shared their concerns and what it was like for them. no child should have to experience not knowing what its like - what running water is. this makes me upset. this is why im here today.
how does the text structure used in this passage support peltier’s purpose in her speech?
○ it gives the reader a better idea of the steps that attawapiskat needs to take in order to reduce water pollution.
○ it provides the reader with a better description of where peltier is from so that they can get a better idea of her background.
○ it shows that she is an expert who has training and experience in cleaning water systems.
○ it explains her motivation for becoming an advocate for accessible drinking water for all people.

Explanation:

The text from the speech describes Peltier's visit to Attawapiskat, her interaction with kids, and how their experiences made her upset, leading to her being there (advocating for accessible water). The option "It explains her motivation for becoming an advocate for accessible drinking water for all people" aligns with this as it connects her visit and the kids' stories to her motivation. The other options: the first is about steps to reduce pollution (not in the text), the second is about describing where she's from (the text is about a visit, not her origin background), the third is about showing her as an expert in cleaning water systems (text doesn't mention her expertise in that).

Answer:

It explains her motivation for becoming an advocate for accessible drinking water for all people.
