In "My Old Home," what is the main reason that the narrator's mother is somewhat sad when he returns home?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

She is sad because the narrator's return means that the moment has come when she will need to leave the house where she lived for many years and has many memories.

Explanation:

"My Old Home," shows the moment when the narrator returns to his hometown, after 20 years, to help his family move to another home. The house where the narrator grew up is no longer of the same quality and needs to be abandoned. The narrator feels strange when reviewing the house, because he no longer has the emotional attachment to this place and does not feel that this is his house. He realizes that his mother is also a little sad, probably because she lived in this house for many years and leaving for another house, causes her to leave many precious memories behind.

Christopher columbus's voyage was based on what scientific theory that had not at the time been confirmed through experiment?.
jeka57 [31]

The idea that the Earth is a spherical served as the foundation for Christopher Columbus' exploration.

  • The church exerted considerable influence over society during the Middle Ages, and the majority of explanations for observed events were perceived as commands from God. As a result, scientific growth made minimal progress during this time.
  • At that time, ships were thought to fall when they approached the horizon, and the flat Earth notion was widely accepted across Europe. However, other philosophers asserted that the Earth was a spherical and that this property prevented observers from seeing the full surface of the planet.
  • Since Christopher Columbus was among the thinkers who thought the Earth was spherical, he wanted to create a new trade route by circumnavigating the globe to reach the East Indies.

Thus the correct answer is Option C.
