Instructions Reread paragraph 3 of the story. Then complete the chart below for the word impoverished.
From "Marigolds" by Eugenia Collier
3 I suppose that futile waiting was the sorrowful background music of our impoverished little community when I was young. The Depression
that gripped the nation was no new thing to us, for the black workers of rural Maryland had always been depressed. I don't know what it
was that we were waiting for, certainly not for the prosperity that was just around the corner," for those were white folks' words, which we
never believed. Nor did we wait for hard work and thrift to pay off in shining success, as the American Dream promised, for we knew better
than that, too.
