According to paragraph 3, which of the following selections best describes the narrator’s hometown as it compares to the rest of Depression-era America? I suppose that futile waiting was the sorrowful background music of our impoverished little community when I was young. The Depression that gripped the nation was no new thing to us, for the black workers of rural Maryland had always been depressed. I don’t know what it was that we were waiting for; certainly not for the prosperity that was “just around the corner,” for those were white folks’ words, which we never believed. Answer choices for the above question A. The people in both her hometown and the rest of America believe that things will improve. B. The people in her hometown believe in the promise of the American Dream. C. The people in the rest of America are just starting to experience the deep poverty that the people in her town have suffered through for many years. D. The Depression is the first time people in her hometown, and the rest of America, are finding themselves poor and unhappy.
