The reader can infer from the passage that the children hate the marigolds because they cannot understand or appreciate the flowers' beauty, option D.

<h3>What is an inference?</h3>

An inference is a conclusion we can get to after analyzing the information we have. After reading the passage provided in the picture, we can infer something about the children and their view of the marigolds in the short story "Marigolds," by Eugenia Collier.

According to the passage, the children disliked the flowers because they were "too beautiful." They lived in an extremely ugly and poor neighborhood, devastated by the Great Depression. The marigolds seem out of place with all their beauty amidst so much ugliness.

With the in mind, we can conclude that the reader can infer the following:

  • The children hate the marigolds because they cannot understand or appreciate the flowers' beauty. (option D)

sammy [17]

Answer:

Quoted from Virgil's "The Aeneid" and poken by Anchises, the father of Aeneas.

Explanation:

Taken from Book VI of "The Aeneid" by Virgil, the quoted excerpt is spoken by Anchises to Aeneas. Meeting his dead father's soul to in the underworld, Aeneas was told by his father about the fate of Rome.

Through the speech or voice of the wise father, Virgil propounds his own personal ideals, propagating that the Romans should try to be more merciful in their conquests. Virgil uses Anchises as a means to voice his own beliefs and wants for Rome to do and stand for. Anchises uses rhetoric in saying that the Roman Empire's justification for what it had done to bring upon justice and law is the same as the Trojans' and Aeneas had made when they settled in Rome.
