Explanation:

Gene Luen Yang's "American Born Chinese" is a graphic novel that revolves around the issue of trying to fit in with the majority despite one's different background. The novel follows the lives of young Chinese children in their attempts and desire to fit into the American culture of their adopted country.

The main characters Danny, the Monkey King, and Jin Wang all faced conflicts in their lives because of their desire to blend in and fit into the lifestyle and culture of their surroundings. Despite their Chinese background and heritage, Danny and Jin Wang felt the need to be 'equal' with the American kids, while the Monkey King also tried to fit in with the other gods. All the three characters had problems accepting their true self, which resulted in the conflicts of trying to be something they're not.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

answer: swag on me

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
