Read the following excerpt from Passage 1. 1 Annie found the whirr and sway of the vacuum cleaner over the thick, faded blue carpet comforting as she recalled this morning’s events. She didn’t mind cleaning, generally, but today she felt even more driven to scrub, sweep, and vacuum away the cloud of hurt feelings that seemed to have engulfed her. Her two older sisters Sadie and Rebecca, had barely helped clear the breakfast dishes before scrambling to get out the front door and taking off for the beach in Sadie’s car. 2 Annie understood why her older sisters left to hang out with kids their own age, singing along to the radio as they pulled out of the driveway, but it still stung a little. Today, though, Annie was especially frustrated because it was the first Saturday of the summer—the day they typically spent with Mom to celebrate another year of her teaching. What’s more, yesterday marked the end of Mom’s twentieth year as a teacher. While Annie had looked forward to celebrating together, Sadie and Rebecca had rushed off with their friends, but not before presenting gifts that made Annie’s seem childish. How does the author’s choice to show Annie’s point of view affect the meaning of the excerpt? Select two options. by elaborating on why Annie dislikes the gift she chose by illustrating how inferior Annie feels to her two sisters by exhibiting how Annie did not plan ahead as her sisters had done by presenting Annie’s bitterness over how this day is being recognized by commenting on why Annie chose to clean the house instead of buying a gift
