Select the correct text in the passage. Which two lines in this excerpt from "Inge's Wall" suggest that Inge was envious of the people on the other side of the wall?
The wall was just a few feet from the home Inge shared with her parents. Aside from her school and other crumbling buildings in their
neighborhood, their world was a few rooms in a dull, gray concrete flat with no yard and no trees. The wall was part of the view from the only
windows they had, and Inge was drawn to the sounds she often heard from the other side--laughter, shouting, music, and the noise of busy traffic
One day, as she explored the wall imagining what the sounds meant, she came upon a hole. Her heart thumped wildly as she leaned toward it.
Through the hole, Inge caught a glimpse of a whole new world. It was a world of color--reds, blues, and yellows in the dresses of women strolling
down the street, the colors of the shirts and ties the men wore, the colors of the ribbons in the little girls' braids. It was a world of people who did
not begin and end each day in shades of gray. It was alive and brimming with activity, with living. Inge leaned, transfixed by the view, for hours
until she began to feel the strain in her back and leg muscles. Then, pulling herself away, she headed home, knowing she would return again and
again.
One fall day in 1990, as Inge headed for her favorite spot in the wall, she noticed that the towers from which the guards viewed her neighborhood
were empty. And she noticed something else: she was not alone. Others, mostly young men with a mix of other people, some of whom she
recognized were at already at the wall or moving toward it.
