Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Asian Americans are a success They achieve They succeed They have no protests, no demands. They just do it This is the general image people in the United States often hold of Asian Americans as a group. They constitute a model minority because, although they have experienced prejudice and discrimination, they seem to have succeeded economically, socially, and educationally without resorting to political or violent confrontations with Whites.

Some observers point to the existence of a model minority as a reaffirmation that anyone can get ahead in the United States. Proponents of the model-minority view declare that because Asian Americans have achieved success, they have ceased to be subordinate and are no longer disadvantaged. This labeling is only a variation of blaming the victim: With Asian Americans, it is praising the victim.
