Read the following excerpt from Sandra Cisneros's story "Mericans."
Abg
"Girl. We can't play with a girl." Girl. It's my brothers' favorite insult now instead of "sissy." "You girl," they yell at
each other. "You throw that ball like a girl."
Which statement best explains the irony in this excerpt?
O The narrator does not even want to play, but her brothers tease her because they think she does.
O Although her brothers do not know it, the narrator actually throws the ball far better than either of them does.
O Even though the narrator is extremely kind to her brothers, they are exceedingly cruel to her.
O As much as the brothers dislike being stereotyped for being "Merican," they stereotype their own sister based on gender.
