Which event in "Borders" is an example of a flashback? (1 point) The mother tells the border guards she is going to visit her daughter in Salt Lake City. The narrator drinks an Orange Crush as the family drives Laetitia to the border. The presence of the media convinced the border guards to let the family pass.

What do you believe the correct answer is? c: If you don't know, take a guess. :3

NelsonTA:

maybe B? idk

Karma:

Well, A is present and the question is asking for the past.

Karma:

B also speaks about the present when mentioning `drinks` and `drives`. So the correct answer is C because it mentions `convinced`.

NelsonTA:

hmm ok ig

Karma:

Did you understand? o:

Karma:

AnimeLuver10023:

The correct answer would be choice B) The narrator drinks an orange crush as the family drives Laetitia to the border because a flashback is a memory of where someone remembers a past moment that they later see again or something they see or smell triggers this memory

Goldenmattman2003:

Agreed with @AnimeLuver10023 That's because B a flashback is a food example of action so when the narrator was drinking a crush its an action! Your answer is B The narrator drinks an Orange Crush as the family drives Laetitia to the border.

NelsonTA:

@Karma @Animeluver10023 @Goldenmattman2003 Yep the answer was B thx

Goldenmattman2003:

NP glad to help.

AnimeLuver10023:
