Question

read the excerpts from does my head look big in this? and persepolis. excerpt from does my head look big in this?: when i was in elementary school, different - colored socks were enough to get you teased. so when youre a non - pork - eating, eid - celebrating mossie (as in taunting nickname for muslim, not mosquito) with an unpronounceable last name and a mother who picks you up from school wearing a hijab and gucci shades and drives a car with an \islam means peace\ bumper sticker, a quiet existence is impossible. excerpt from persepolis: what different perspectives do the narrators tones reveal? amal stands out as different, but marjane does not. amal is not ashamed of her wealth, but marjane is. amal cares about appearances, but marjane does not. amal is not facing a conflict, but marjane is.

Explanation:

The question asks for different perspectives revealed by the narrators' tones. The first option claims Amal stands out but Marjane does not—this is unsupported (Marjane’s context in Persepolis involves standing out due to her family’s politics). The second option about wealth is irrelevant (no mention of Amal’s wealth in the excerpt). The fourth option is false (Amal faces teasing for her identity, so she has conflict). The third option fits: Amal’s excerpt focuses on how small differences (like socks or her hijab-wearing mother) make her stand out, showing concern for appearances; Marjane’s panel (though text is partial) does not center on appearance.

Answer:

Apal cares about appearances, but Marjane does not
