Question

1. part b: which two details from the text best support the answer to part a? a. \the officers grumbled a few choice curse words and then ran down the stairs in pursuit of the young man. though i was the one clearly breaking a law, they went after him.\ (paragraph 10) b. \i moved closer, within 10 feet of him, and tagged it again. i could see him inside watching video monitors that corresponded to the different cameras.\ (paragraph 12) c. \each time, the guards saw a young professional in a suit, not the suspect they had in mind, and each time they handed me back my license and turned me away.\ (paragraph 15) d. \when will you let me see my attorney? hes been upstairs waiting to see me for two hours! another man called out in the direction of a group of corrections officers sitting and talking out of view.\ (paragraph 24)

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Describes officers chasing a young man instead of the narrator (who was breaking a law). This shows a discrepancy in police action, likely supporting a Part A answer about unequal treatment or police focus.
• Option B: The narrator tags (graffiti) near a police officer, who watches via monitors but does nothing. This shows the narrator’s law - breaking going unaddressed, supporting a Part A answer about leniency or selective enforcement.
• Option C: About guards and a young professional, not related to the narrator’s law - breaking or police response to it.
• Option D: About a man asking for an attorney, unrelated to the narrator’s situation.

Answer:

A. "The officers grumbled a few choice curse words and then ran down the stairs in pursuit of the young man. Though I was the one clearly breaking a law, they went after him." (Paragraph 10)
B. "I moved closer, within 10 feet of him, and tagged it again. I could see him inside watching video monitors that corresponded to the different cameras." (Paragraph 12)
