Good Deed I learned about the joy of helping others when I was in Kindergarten. One of my
classmates had forgotten his snack, so he had nothing to eat during recess. Nobody
wanted to share with him because we were all very hungry and it was really his own fault
that he would have to go without. That day my mother had packed my favorite treat; a
chocolate and peanut butter cup, I wanted it II for myself, but my mother had often told
me that I should share , so I broke my chocolate and peanut butter cup in half and gave
my forgetful classmate half. He nearly fell over in surprise. Then he smiled the biggest
smile I had ever seen and I suddenly felt the greatest happiness I had ever felt. After that,
I always looked for chances to help people, because it always made them and me feel
good.

Read the excerpt from cristina garcia’s dreaming in cuban.i don’t really want to talk about my father but i end up telling minnie how he used to take me horseback riding on our ranch, strapping me in his saddle with a leather seat belt he designed just for me. dad’s family owned casinos in cuba, and had one of the largest ranches on the island. there were beef cattle and dairy cows, horses, pigs, goats, and lambs. dad fed them molasses to fatten them, and gave the chickens corn and sorghum until they laid vermilion eggs, rich with vitamins. he took me on an overnight inspection once. we camped out under a sapodilla tree and listened to the pygmy owls with their old women’s voices. my father knew i understood more than i could say. he told me stories about cuba after columbus came. he said that the spaniards wiped out more indians with smallpox than with muskets.how does the structure of the excerpt add meaning to the passage? it includes historical information about the spaniards and indians to indicate the work is nonfiction.it describes the setting of the ranch owned by pilar’s cuban grandparents to explain family values.it uses several narrators to share their points of view about past and present life in cuba.it manipulates the chronological order of events to reveal the close relationship between pilar and her father.
