Read the passage from "Names/Nombres" by Julia Alvarez.
By the time I was in high school, I was a popular kid, and it showed in my name. Friends called me Jules or Hey Jude, and once a group of troublemaking friends my mother forbade me to hang out with called me Alcatraz. I was Hoo-lee-tah only to Mami and Papi and uncles and aunts who came over to eat sancocho on Sunday afternoons – old world folk whom I would just as soon go back to where they came from and leave me to pursue whatever mischief I wanted to in America. JUDY ALCATRAZ, the name on the "Wanted" poster would read. Who would ever trace her to me?
I NEED THIS FAST!!! Which main idea is conveyed in this passage?
Julia’s nicknames help her fit into her new culture.
Julia is determined to hold on to her Dominican identity.
Julia is happier when she is with her family.
Julia’s Dominican name makes it difficult to fit in.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The main idea conveyed in the passage is Julia’s nicknames help her fit into her new culture. The opening line of the chapter claims that Julia was a popular student in high school and that her name reflected such popularity. Hence option A is correct.
Her close pals referred to her as Hey Jude or Jules, both of which are American names. The paragraph also indicates that she was given the nickname Alcatraz by a bunch of rowdy friends, which is an Americanized form of her Dominican name, Hoo-lee-tah.
The chapter continues by stating that Julia's family members referred to her as Hoo-lee-tah, although she would just as soon have them return home. This shows that Julia is attempting to adapt to American society while putting space between herself and her Dominican roots.
