Grandfather taught us the prayers they would say for the com harvest each year. As he talked, he rattled a few dried kernels in one of his wrinkled hands. I tried to picture those hands sowing seeds long ago, when Grandfather and the other Wampanoag people lived in Massachusetts. Corn was a staple in the Wampanoag community. It was planted together with beans, which used the strong cornstalks to support their growth, and squash, whose leafy vines kept the soil from drying out. A single com seed could produce several hundred new ones. Which of the following descriptions best explains how the historical passage might enhance a reader's understanding of the personal narrative? A The historical passage provides background information to explain why the Wampanoag were once hunter-gatherers. B. The historical passage connects the personal experience of planting and harvesting corn with technical information about farming C. The historical passage creates a vivid, sensory explanation to illustrate the grandfather's more factual story OD. The historical passage reveals that because of modem technology, the Wampanoag no longer need to pray for good harvests
