Answer:

A. The police had been looking for the thief for months and finally caught him in the act.

Explanation:

The best answer choice is "The police had been looking for the thief for months and finally caught him in the act." Inconsistency or shift in a sentence voice confuses the reader. Shifts in the voice can make reading difficult and the meaning confusing. To correct the shift, both clauses in the sentence should be in the same (active) voice. This leaves the subject of both clause as "the police," which improves the flow of ideas.

What symbolism is found in this excerpt from James Joyce's "Araby"? North Richmond Street, being blind, was a quiet street excep
Goryan [66]

The correct answer is <em><u>option A and option C.</u></em>  In the excerpt, the "school setting the kids free" symbolizes the boys being set free from Church and its impositions. The blind street symbolizes the aimless and drab life on North Richmond Street. Araby is a short story written by James Choice and published on 1914. It is the story of how a boy gets infatuated with a girl, that he wants to buy her a present from the Araby Bazaar. The story is filled with religious and church symbolism. When the narrator says that "North Richmond Street is blind" he is expressing the aimless and dull lifestyle of the community, immersed in religion. He is using the street as a representation of his community and how detached he finds himself from it, as his faith is dying.
