s344n2d4d5 [400]

Read the excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea."

Then the little girl-daughter put up her little soft brown arms with the beautiful white shell bracelets and said, ‘O Eldest Magician! when my father here talked to you at the Very Beginning, and I leaned upon his shoulder while the beasts were being taught their plays, one beast went away naughtily into the Sea before you had taught him his play. And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who see and are silent! What was the beast like?’ And the little girl-daughter said, ‘He was round and he was flat; and his eyes grew upon stalks; and he walked sideways like this; and he was covered with strong armour upon his back.’ And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who speak truth! Now I know where Pau Amma went. Give me the paddle!’ So he took the paddle; but there was no need to paddle, for the water flowed steadily past all the islands till they came to the place called Pusat Tasek—the Heart of the Sea—where the great hollow is that leads down to the heart of the world, and in that hollow grows the Wonderful Tree, Pauh Janggi, that bears the magic twin nuts.

What evidence supports the conclusion that the author’s purpose is to teach a moral to children?

"He was round and he was flat."

"Now I know where Pau Amma went."

"He was covered with strong armour upon his

back.

"How wise are little children who speak truth!"

Answer:

"How wise are little children who speak truth!"

Explanation:

The evidence that supports the conclusion that the author's purpose is to teach a moral to children was when the Eldest Magician replied the little girl-daughter and told her that little children that speak truth are wise.

His reply came as a result of her observations which led to the Eldest Magician finding out where Pau Amma went to.
