1. How would the relationship between Young Goodman Brown and Faith best be described in this passage?

Answer: Loving, but momentarily strained due to a festering, unspoken secret.

Explanation: Young Goodman Brown and Faith are characters in the Nathaniel Hawthorne's story, "Young Goodman Brown." The story focuses on Young Goodman Brown leaving his wife for a task in the forest. Faith begged her husband to stay with her for the night and forget about the errand but Brown insisted of going. The passage shows that both of them are loving because even if Faith wanted her husband to stay, her husband left but this didn't make Faith feel bad. However, Faith doubted her husband's leaving for a moment but Brown assured her that he love her and that she shouldn't doubt him. Somehow, there was an unspoken secret regarding the unknown errand of Brown.

2. What common theme, or topic, is touched upon both in the letter and the short story excerpt?

Answer: D. the differing responses of husbands and wives to a farewell

Explanation: The topic in the letter and short story excerpt shows how the responses of husbands and wives differ when it comes to farewell. For the wife in the letter, kissing her and saying goodbye is what she favors. She finds it questionable why it's hard for her husband to do that even if she asks him to.

The short story excerpt also describes a similar occurrence when Faith had a hard time saying goodbye to Young Goodman Brown. Yet, Brown assured her that he'd be back soon enough and it was only one night that he'd be away.

3. Based on this excerpt from the story, what can be said about the relationship between Young Goodman Brown and his wife Faith?

Answer: D. There is a great deal of love, but some fear.

Explanation: The relationship between Young Goodman Brown and Faith shows a great deal of love. They even address each other so lovingly. Nevertheless, there is fear in their relationship since Brown went away without telling Faith about his errand in the forest. This causes some fear, especially on Faith's end.

Upon encountering the old man who tempted Goodman into attending the ceremony, Goodman was afraid that Faith would have been one of those who turned into evil. So, this shows that he truly loves Faith yet was afraid of what might have happened to her.
