Read the excerpt from enrique’s journey. he was five years old when his mother left him. now he is almost another person. in the window glass, he sees a battered young man, scrawny and disfigured. it angers him, and it steels his determination to push northward. read the excerpt from "children of the drug wars." children from central america have been making that journey, often without their parents, for two decades. but lately something has changed, and the predictable flow has turned into an exodus. three years ago, about 6,800 children were detained by united states immigration authorities and placed in federal custody; this year, as many as 90,000 children are expected to be picked up. how do details from the excerpts support the author’s purpose?

A parallel that can be traced about the excerpt from Enrique's Journey that appears in the book Children of the Drug Wars by author Damon Barett and the information about migrating without the parents of Central America to North America is that the abandonment of these children by part of their parents or guardians is a great motivation for them not to return to their country of origin but to keep going north. The escape of a violent past and abandonment with the parents serves as an incentive for these children to travel to the north of the American continent

multiple settings

< > reasoning \ evidence < >

novels have multiple settings. a setting is a place or surrounding when a main event or event takes place. not everything happens in just one scene or setting. yes, there can be one *main* setting, but there is definitely not just one. b is incorrect. novels do not have limited characters. there are many characters in a novel, depending on how many the writer wishes to add in. c is incorrect. there is not just a single theme. there are many themes. another word for "theme" is the subject. there can be many subjects and topics. once again, there are many, depending on however many the author wishes to add or include. d is incorrect. yes, novels *can* have no solutions, based on what the author would like. but typically, novels have a solution. the solution might be in "book 5", but there is normally still a solution.
