He is trying to show Jim that he is willing to destroy the thing he loves the most (the trumpet), because nothing matters if he can't get through to Jim. He felt that the trumpet could "buy a soul for Jim", but if it couldn't, then the trumpet was "worthless".

What words best describe Mrs. Winterbottom as a person?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

d. Anxious.

Explanation:

The novel "Walk Two Moons" by Sharon Creech revolves around the life of Sal, our protagonist as she undergoes a change in her life after the death of her mother. The book covers the whole narrative of her journey with her grandparents' trip to visit their mother's final resting place and also her new life in Ohio and her new friendship with Phoebe Winterbottom.

Mrs. Winterbottom is the mother of Sal's new and future best friend Phoebe. Like her own mother, Sal observes that Mrs. Winterbottom also is a dedicated housewife who is stuck within the house, meek and obedient. But at the same time, she realizes that she (Mrs. Winterbottom) desires a life that is not merely baking, cooking, and cleaning. She is constantly anxious about how she is, trying hard to please everyone but at the same time, tired and fed up with the normal, boring life she is living. She finally decided to leave her family, disappearing to discover her true self. In her attempt to reconcile her true self and her past, she leaves everything behind, returning with the revelation of her past life- that she'd had a son.

Thus, the correct answer is anxious.

Sonja [21]

Answer by YourHope:


Hi! :)


The difference between "focus on" and "focus in" is that focus on literally means to focus on something. You are putting all your attention on a specific thing, while focus in is incorrect.
