Read the following passage from “La Princesa Mileidy Dominguez.”
It is too late for my quinceañera now because it’s already passed, and looking at that banner, something breaks in me.“Are you okay, Leidy?”“Yeah, I’m okay. I was just remembering my own quinceañera.” Brittney smiles because she doesn’t get what I’m saying. She thinks I’m talking about a dance, the dress, the presentation, all of the padrinos and madrinas, the regalos. Brittney can’t even imagine because the way her pants are intentionally ripped and those expensive glasses, she probably got all of those things.
According to the passage, what assumption does Leidy make about Brittney?

Because Brittney has expensive clothing, she likely looks down on others who cannot afford a traditional quinceañera.

Because Brittney is smiling, she likely does not understand what a traditional quinceañera actually is.

Because Brittney can afford expensive things, she likely does not understand what it means to do without a traditional quinceañera.

Because Brittney wears intentionally ripped pants, she likely does not care about the dresses or dances at a traditional quinceañera.

Part A
Read the following passage from “La Princesa Mileidy Dominguez.”
When I “double up” with family or friends,
I live in spaces within spaces within spaces.
The house → the room → my mind.
Each space smaller and smaller,
Like nesting dolls,
Until I am the smallest,
Invisible and quiet,
But conscious, always conscious of the air I occupy. . . .

Part B
Which quotation from “La Princesa Mileidy” most clearly supports the answer to Part A?

It’s not really important, but I always pay attention to little things like that, always try to get the social layout of any new school I enter.

Brittney is in my math class at the end of the day, but I’ve been avoiding her because I don’t want her brainstorming other ways I can go to the dance.

I see crowds of girls heading to the band room where they’re supposedly getting their hair and makeup done.

I go through my quiet day, think about every word I spoke, every eye movement, every class I went to, and make sure that I haven’t done anything to get me a discipline referral.
