Question

read the excerpt from
ebuilding the cherokee nation.\ ive been very fortunate to be able to travel extensively in this country and abroad, and i can tell you that even though our people are very fragmented today, we still, in the more traditional communities still have a sense of interdependence. i can still motivate people in communities to do something because it helps their neighbor, or helps the person down the road, or helps the community much more than i can motivate people to do something just because it helps themselves. courtesy of the wilma mankiller trust which sentence best integrates a direct quotation from the excerpt? ○ mankiller has found that cherokee people \in the more traditional communities\ will help their neighbors. ○ mankiller asserts that while the cherokee have been fragmented, they still have \a sense of community.\ ○ mankiller says she can motivate people in traditional communities \to do something because it helps their neighbor.\ ○ mankiller believes that part of cherokee culture survives because the people \do something because it helps their neighbor.\

Explanation:

To determine the best integration of a direct quotation, we analyze each option:

• Option 1: The phrase "in the more traditional communities" is taken out of context and misrepresents the original meaning. The original talks about a sense of interdependence in traditional communities, not just helping neighbors in that context.
• Option 2: The original text says "a sense of interdependence" not "a sense of community", so this misquotes the excerpt.
• Option 3: The original states "I can still motivate people in communities to do something because it helps their neighbor, or helps the person down the road, or helps the community much more than I can motivate people to do something just because it helps themselves." The option correctly takes the part "to do something because it helps their neighbor" and integrates it, matching the original's meaning and quotation accuracy.
• Option 4: The original doesn't link the motivation to "part of Cherokee culture surviving" in the way this option does; it's an incorrect interpretation of the excerpt's content.

Answer:

C. Mankiller says she can motivate people in traditional communities "to do something because it helps their neighbor." (Note: Assuming the third option is labeled C; adjust the label based on actual numbering if different, but the content of the option is as described.)
