Question

click the sentence on the paragraph that best shows the son cares about his father despite wanting to trick him

Answer 1

Answer:

As soon as he arrived, he placed the moccasins, the arrowhead, and the prized quiver in his father’s sleeping roll where the Old Man would tense with fear once again upon retrieving them that evening.

Explanation:

In the given passage, we can see that the son has had enough of his jokes on his father. He decided to stop making his father worried. But at the same time, he still tries to play a trick on him. So, he went ahead and left all the items in his tipi so that his father will be surprised to see them.

The sentence that shows how the son cares about his father yet wants to trick him is seen in the third sentence. The act of returning the items to his father shows he cares for him but at the same time, wanting to make him "tense with fear" shows his playful side.

"As soon as he arrived, he placed the moccasins, the arrowhead, and the prized quiver in his father’s sleeping roll where the Old Man would tense with fear once again upon retrieving them that evening."
