Answer:
In Barrio Boy, the author expressed his feelings about his childhood in the below excerpt:
"During the next few weeks Miss Ryan overcame my fears of tall, energetic teachers as she bent over my desk to help me with a word in the pre-primer.

The pecan tree has been an American icon for over two hundred years. Before Europeans came to North America, Native Americans were aware of, and regularly ate, fruit from the pecan tree. Pecan trees are deciduous, losing their leaves in mid-November. Once planted, the pecan tree can live and bear fruit for over three hundred years. They reach enormous heights, the highest of which is a reported 180 ft. As a member of the hickory family of trees, the pecan is not a true nut but a drupe (fruit with a single stone or pit). This makes the fruit similar to that of coffee shrubs, olive trees, and date palms. Thomas Jefferson wrote about and cared for an entire orchard of pecan trees, and he spread his love of the tree and its fruit to other founding fathers, namely George Washington. Pecan trees have only recently been cultivated on a large scale by growers, mainly because the pecan nut is a healthy food that is high in both protein and unsaturated fats. Dieticians say that eating a handful of pecans every day is enough to lower unwanted, bad cholesterol as much as some prescription medications. Not only are pecans good for cholesterol, but they also help to prevent heart disease. Pecans are also regularly used in dishes and desserts, the most famous of which is the very American pecan pie.

Explanation:

Read this excerpt from The Call of the Wild by Jack London.
It was an old song, old as the breed itself—one of the first songs of the younger world in a day when songs were sad. It was invested with the woe of unnumbered generations, this plaint by which Buck was so strangely stirred. When he moaned and sobbed, it was with the pain of living that was of old the pain of his wild fathers, and the fear and mystery of the cold and dark that was to them fear and mystery.

Stevenson wrote the essay several years after his visit to Wick,Scotland. How has looking back at the time and seeing it from a new perspective changing his thinking? Using evidence from the except to support your respond.
Answer:
Stevenson’s essay is about how he learned to find beauty and experience joy and peace in a place that seemed unpleasant at first. At the beginning, he says that "six weeks in (that) unpleasant countryside had done more. . . to quicken and educate my sensibilities than many years in places that jumped more nearly with my inclination" (natural liking).
Stevenson ends by saying that this visit taught him how to discover beauty and experience peace and happiness anywhere, even in places that seemed harsh and unwelcoming:
There, in the bleak and gusty North, I received, perhaps, my strongest impression of peace. I saw the sea to be great and calm; and the earth, in that little corner, was all alive and friendly to me. So, wherever a man is, he will find something to please and pacify him: in the town he will meet pleasant faces of men and women, and see beautiful flowers at a window, or hear a cage-bird singing at the corner of the gloomiest street; and for the country, there is no country without some amenity—let him only look for it in the right spirit, and he will surely find.
Explanation:
