Answer:
Rachel calling, Phyllis and Sylvia, names reveal that she is a vulnerable and pliable child.
Rachel's comments can't be justified but can be excused.
Explanation:
"Eleven" is a short story written by Sandra Cisneros. The story is about a young girl named Rachel, who is turned eleven but is faced with humility in her class.
Slyvia's quick claim that the sweater belongs to Rachel, was taken as a personal assault by Rachel at the hands of Sylvia. And, when she was forced to wear the sweater, which she contended to be dirty and ugly, Sylvia becomes an object of hatred for Rachel. She felt indignant by wearing the sweater. When Phyllis remembers and professed the sweater to be hers, Rachel became enraged with both of them, Sylvia and Phyllis, and call them names. This reveals that she is a vulnerable and pliable child. Such comments can not be justified but can be understood as Rachel is just an eleven-year-old girl, who is aging towards teens, conscious of everything.
