PLEASE HELP!!! Select the correct text in the passage. Which two lines in this excerpt from “Inge’s Wall” suggest that Inge was envious of the people on the other side of the wall? The wall was just a few feet from the home Inge shared with her parents. Aside from her school and other crumbling buildings in their neighborhood, their world was a few rooms in a dull, gray concrete flat with no yard and no trees. The wall was part of the view from the only windows they had, and Inge was drawn to the sounds she often heard from the other side—laughter, shouting, music, and the noise of busy traffic. One day, as she explored the wall imagining what the sounds meant, she came upon a hole. Her heart thumped wildly as she leaned toward it. Through the hole, Inge caught a glimpse of a whole new world. It was a world of color—reds, blues, and yellows in the dresses of women strolling down the street, the colors of the shirts and ties the men wore, the colors of the ribbons in the little girls' braids. It was a world of people who did not begin and end each day in shades of gray. It was alive and brimming with activity, with living. Inge leaned, transfixed by the view, for hours until she began to feel the strain in her back and leg muscles. Then, pulling herself away, she headed home, knowing she would return again and again. One fall day in 1990, as Inge headed for her favorite spot in the wall, she noticed that the towers from which the guards viewed her neighborhood were empty. And she noticed something else: she was not alone. Others, mostly young men with a mix of other people, some of whom she recognized were at already at the wall or moving toward it.

Answer:

1: “the people who did not begin and end each day in shades of gray”

2: “It was a world of color—reds, blues, and yellows in the dresses of women strolling down the street, the colors of the shirts and ties the men wore.....”

Explanation:

1: “the people who did not begin and end each day in shades of gray. The world outside the wall was full life." That life started and ended colorfully. She was envious of this life and wished if her life too could be as colorful as theirs. This line also shows that Inge is comparing her dull starts and end of days with the colorful start and end of days outside the wall.

2: The line “world of color-reds, blues, and strolling down the street.......” She even takes notice of people's dress colors. The colors of their dress represent to her the color of their lives and the beauty of world outside the wall.
