read the excerpt from
emembering to never forget dominican republics parsley massacre\ by mark memmott.
writer and middlebury college professor julia alvarez, the daughter of dominicans and someone who lived there as a child, said on tell me more today that the killings must be acknowledged and testified to. \we cant change the present or the future unless we acknowledge what has happened,\ she told guest host celeste headlee. \theres no place on this planet anymore where that should be happening. its time that the people themselves say thats enough.\
which details support alvarezs ideas about the situation in her home country? select two options
□ \the daughter of dominicans\
□ \we cant change the present\
□ \acknowledge what has happened\
□ \on this planet\
□ \thats enough\
To determine which details support Alvarez’s ideas about her home country, we analyze each option:
- "the daughter of Dominicans": Establishes her connection to the Dominican Republic (her home country), showing her personal stake in the situation.
- "we can’t change the present": This is part of a longer quote about needing to acknowledge the past to change present/future, but alone doesn't directly support ideas about the home country's situation.
- "acknowledge what has happened": Relates to her call to acknowledge the killings in the Dominican Republic, supporting her ideas about the situation.
- "on this planet": A general statement, not specific to her home country.
- "that’s enough": Her call for the people of the Dominican Republic (her home country) to stand against such violence, supporting her ideas.
So the two options that support her ideas about the situation in her home country are "the daughter of Dominicans" (establishing her connection) and "acknowledge what has happened" (her call to address the past) or "that’s enough" (her call for action in her home country). Wait, re - evaluating: "the daughter of Dominicans" shows her origin. "acknowledge what has happened" is about addressing the past in her home country. "that’s enough" is about the people of her home country taking a stand. Let's check the context again. The question is about details that support her ideas about the situation in her home country.
- "the daughter of Dominicans": This shows her personal connection to the Dominican Republic (her home country), which is relevant as her ideas stem from her background there.
- "acknowledge what has happened": This is about acknowledging the killings (the situation) in her home country, so it supports her ideas about the situation.
- "that’s enough": This is a call for the people of her home country to say enough to the violence, so it also supports. But the question says select two. Let's check the options again. The correct two are likely "the daughter of Dominicans" (showing her connection to the home country) and "acknowledge what has happened" (her idea about addressing the situation) or "that’s enough". Wait, the original text: she is "the daughter of Dominicans and someone who lived there as a child" – so "the daughter of Dominicans" establishes her connection. Then "acknowledge what has happened" is part of her statement about the situation (the killings in DR). And "that’s enough" is her call for the people of DR to act. But the options: let's list them again:
- "the daughter of Dominicans": Supports as it shows her link to DR (home country).
- "we can’t change the present": Not directly about DR's situation.
- "acknowledge what has happened": Supports as it's about acknowledging the past (killings) in DR.
- "on this planet": Not specific to DR.
- "that’s enough": Supports as it's a call for DR's people to act.
But the question says "select two options". Let's see the intended answers. Probably "the daughter of Dominicans" and "acknowledge what has happened" or "the daughter of Dominicans" and "that’s enough". Wait, maybe the correct two are "the daughter of Dominicans" (her connection to home country) and "acknowledge what has happened" (her idea about the situation) or "acknowledge what has happened" and "that’s enough". But let's check the context again. The key is "ideas about the situation in her home country". Her ideas are about acknowledging the past (killings) and taking action. So "acknowledge what has happened" (about the past situation) and "that’s enough" (about the action needed in the…

A. the daughter of Dominicans, C. acknowledge what has happened (or A. the daughter of Dominicans, E. that’s enough; but based on the analysis, the most accurate two are likely "the daughter of Dominicans" and "acknowledge what has happened" or "acknowledge what has happened" and "that’s enough". However, re - evaluating the context, "the daughter of Dominicans" establishes her connection to the home country, and "acknowledge what has happened" is part of her message about the situation (the killings) in the home country. So the two options are:
A. the daughter of Dominicans, C. acknowledge what has happened
