Answer:
The statement which most accurately describes Lemon Brown's and Greg's actions in the excerpt is:
D. Lemon Brown's courage inspires Greg to also stand up to the neighborhood thugs.
Explanation:
Greg and Lemon Brown are characters in the story "The Treasure of Lemon Brown", by Walter Dean Myers. Greg is just a boy who is having trouble with his father. They argue because of Greg's grades, so Greg heads to an abandoned warehouse for a pickup game. That is where he meets Lemon Brown.
<u>As some thugs walk in, Lemon Brown and Greg have very different reactions. Greg panics, but Brown chooses to face the thugs and protect his treasure. Seeing so much courage, Greg feels inspired. He then howls to distract the thugs, which gives Brown the chance to attack them. Having that in mind, we can choose letter D as the correct answer:</u>
D. Lemon Brown's courage inspires Greg to also stand up to the neighborhood thugs.
B. There is one main conflict that the main character faces.
A short story has a simple plot line with few characters. This allows the story to be short. An example of a short story is "The Most Dangerous Game". The main character Rainsford ends up stranded on Ship Trap Island. He meets General Zaroff who has found that hunting people makes for the best hunting experience. In order to leave the island, Rainsford must survive on the island for three days without being killed by General Zaroff who is hunting him. This is a simple plot line as the only real conflict Rainsford faces is the General.
Novels can have many complex characters and smaller conflicts that build upon one another. The statement that a short story is always based on stories that actually happened is simply not true.
