A student is writing about the cultural differences in Barrio Boy. Which line from the text shows evidence that Ernesto and his family had to adjust to a new economic system?

Respuesta :

Explanation:

Remember, in the story, we are told that Ernesto and his family lived in a small mountain village. In fact, here's a quote from the opening lines of chapter one, Ernesto Galarza recounts, "Unlike people who are born in hospitals, in an ambulance, or in a taxicab, I showed up in an adobe cottage with a thatched roof that stood at one end of the only street of Jalcocotán, which everybody called Jalco for short. Like many other small villages in the wild.."

His statements show a contrast with the kind of economic system they later discovered in America, because unlike in Mexico where they were mainly involved in farming their life in America involved finding a different source of income.
