Read the passage from Black Boy. From the white landowners above him there had not been handed to him a chance to learn the mean

ing of loyalty, of sentiment, of tradition. Joy was as unknown to him as was despair. As a creature of the earth, he endured, hearty, whole, seemingly indestructible, with no regrets and no hope. He asked easy, drawling questions about me, his other son, his wife, and he laughed, amused, when I informed him of their destinies. I forgave him, and pitied him as my eyes looked past him to the unpainted wooden shack. What does this excerpt suggest? As an adult, Wright has a strong positive regard for his father and wants to get to know him. As an adult, Wright believes he will never fully accept the way his father treated him. As an adult, Wright is disgusted with his father’s ignorance and his flippant manner. As an adult, Wright has a different perspective of his father than he did when he was a child.

As an adult, Wright has a different perspective of his father than he did when he was a child.

In the passage the speaker talks about his father when he says, "there had not been handed to him a chance". This makes it seem as though the speaker understands that his father did not have much of a choice. Then at the end of the passage the speaker says "I forgave him, and pitied him as my eyes look past him to the unpainted wooden shack." These details show that there has been some type of change in the speaker in regards to his father. At one point he may have blamed his father and been angry with him, but this frustration or annoyance is no longer there for the speaker. The way the speaker views his father has changed since he was a boy.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

"Now, who spilled the paint?" Mother asked.

Explanation:

Correct punctuation refers to the correct or right use of the punctuation marks, be it the comma, full-stop, question mark, or the capital letters in any given sentence. These signs are an indication of how correct sentences are written and used.

Among the given options, the use of correct punctuation is in the sentence <u>"Now, who spilled the paint?" Mother asked.</u> This is evident by the use of the question tag after the sentence spoken by Mother, the use of the inverted commas to signify "speech", the comma after "Now". All these factors helped determine the correctness of this sentence as the correctly punctuated sentence.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
