Question

read the excerpt from my story. more of us rode the buses than caucasians did, because more whites could afford cars. it was very humiliating having to suffer the indignity of riding segregated buses twice a day, five days a week, to go downtown and work for white people. how is this excerpt structured? ○ cause and effect ○ chronology ○ problem and solution ○ answer

Explanation:

The excerpt uses "because" to show the cause (more whites could afford cars) leading to the effect (more of "us" rode buses). Chronology would involve time order, problem - solution needs a problem and its solution, and "answer" is not a valid structure type here. So the structure is cause and effect.

Answer:

A. cause and effect
