Read the passage below. Then, explain how the explicit and implicit details in the passage help the reader make the following inference: Felix will most likely cast his vote for Simone. In developing your response, make sure you identify and analyze several explicit and implicit details. Passage

The secret-ballot election for class president was this afternoon, but Felix didn't know how he would be voting. Felix knew this was a big deal, since the class presidents had a major say in how the school was run. While Felix waited for Jamal and Simone to deliver their final speeches, he took out a charcoal pencil and pad and did a quick sketch of Simone, who paced frantically at the back of the room, wringing her hands. Simone spoke first, rambling at the beginning but then slowing down a bit. Her main focus, she said, would be getting more money for art class supplies and more space for the music program — which caused Felix to glance thoughtfully at the trumpet case next to his desk. When it was Jamal's turn, he immediately captivated the audience — tall and handsome, he seemed able to convince anyone of anything, except his best friend, Felix. That's why Jamal liked Felix — he was a freethinker. In his speech, Jamal explained how he wanted to cut back on music and the arts in favor of more science and math, which he said was important for the future of our country. The class applauded wildly, but Felix had already stopped listening and returned to his sketch of Simone. please help!!k

Read this excerpt from i never had it made. "it's all that ought to count," he replied. "but it isn't. maybe one of these days it will be all that counts. that is one of the reasons i've got you here, robinson. if you're a good enough man, we can make this a start in the right direction. but let me tell you, it's going to take an awful lot of courage." he was back to the crossroads question that made me start to get angry minutes earlier. he asked it slowly and with great care. "have you got the guts to play the game no matter what happens? " "i think i can play the game, mr. rickey," i said. the next few minutes were tough. branch rickey had to make absolutely sure that i knew what i would face. beanballs would be thrown at me. i would be called the kind of names which would hurt and infuriate any man. i would be physically attacked. could i take all of this and control my temper, remain steadfastly loyal to our ultimate aim? which is the central idea of this excerpt?
