Extract only text files from a zip file

I have a zip file newfile.zip.

Archive: newfile.zip Length Date Time Name
--------- ---------- ----- ---- 0 2019-11-22 02:00 newdir/ 33 2019-11-22 01:31 newdir/file1.txt 0 2019-11-22 01:31 newdir/dir1/ 79 2019-11-22 01:45 newdir/dir1/file11.txt 35 2019-11-22 01:43 newdir/file100.txt 0 2019-11-22 02:00 newdir/file1 0 2019-11-22 02:00 newdir/file2
--------- ------- 147 7 files

I want to extract the files with the extension .txt. I use this command,

$ unzip newfile.zip newdir/*.txt

This command extract the files,

newdir/file100.txt
newdir/file1.txt

but not the file, newdir/dir1/file11.txt

So how to extract it?

I have these folders and files:

.
├── a
│   └── file1a.txt
├── b
│   ├── file1b.txt
│   └── file2b.txt
├── c
│   ├── file1c.txt
│   └── file2c.txt
├── emptydoc
└── file2.txt 

I got all of them compressed to compressed.zip.
If I want to unzip text files only, I run this command unzip compressed.zip *.txt and I only get the .txt files unzipped

unzip compressed.zip *.txt
