Answer:
The correct answer is B) Omovo does not like his father to leave the house without him.
Explanation:
This is a story written by Ben Okri called The Shadow of War and it is a story about a young boy called Omovo, who is a witness of the Nigerian war and who has to face some morality issues. In this part of the story he is at home looking through his window some soldiers and he knows his father is going to leave without him, so he feels irritated. Although he mentions the woman with the black veil, he does not mentions his father is going to see her and he never mentions his father will drink with the soldiers. In spite the fact the radio is covered, they can listen perfectly the news. So the reason Omovo has to feel irritated is that he does not like his father to leave the house without him
Answer:
C. Lord Walker is sad to deliver the news to Alena.
Explanation:
It's this line:
"<span>Mr.
Bumble regarded Oliver's piteous and helpless look, with some
astonishment, for a few seconds; hemmed three or four times in a husky
manner; and after muttering something about 'that troublesome cough,'
bade Oliver dry his eyes and be a good boy." (E., the last one of the options)</span>
The look of poor Oliver is so heart-wrenching, that even Mr. Bumble had to stop and turn away for a second to recollect. And because Mr. Bumble shames those that have pity with the poor, in the moment when he feels pity himself he tries to cover his own spontaneous emotional outburst with a flimsy excuse of it being "that troublesome cough".
