Question

i sit up straight, ignore brandon, and try to be the leader i am supposed to be.... my brother’s name is raymond. we call him ray. his name means \protector\ and dad says he should be keeping me, his little sister, safe. but mostly he is just bossy and nosy and sometimes he treats me like i am a glass thing that could break. he is always telling me you can’t do this and you shouldn’t be so that. maybe because i am two years younger than him, maybe because i am a girl. maybe because he doesn’t know the meaning of my name, how tough i really am. maybe he doesn’t realize i can do and be anything. stop and think what do you wish other people knew about you? what makes that part of your personality special? how does ryan feel about her brother? she feels angry with him because he breaks things. she feels safe and protected when she is with him. she feels bothered that he thinks of her as weak.

Explanation:

To determine Ryan's feelings about her brother, we analyze the text:

• The first option is incorrect as there's no mention of him breaking things.
• The second option is incorrect because the text says he is "bossy and nosy" and treats her like she's fragile, not that she feels safe with him.
• The third option is correct. The text states he treats her "like I am a glass thing that could break" and is always telling her what she can't do, showing she feels bothered by his perception of her as weak.

Answer:

She feels bothered that he thinks of her as weak.
