Question

Which details best support the purpose of this editorial cartoon? Select three options.

the pattern of the woman's outfit
the "will work for air conditioning" sign
the rat sweating on the sidewalk
the city buildings and sidewalk
the comfortable man in the air-conditioned car

Answer 1

- the "will work for air conditioning" sign
- the rat sweating on the sidewalk
- the comfortable man in the air-conditioned car

These three details emphasize the cartoon's point about extreme heat and the stark contrast between those suffering (and desperate) and those protected by comfort/wealth.
