Answer:

Negotiation through divine grace

Explanation:

In ‘A good man is hard to find’ the grandmother’s attempts evolve from logic to despair throughout her exchange with the Misfit. First, we find her trying to convince him that he is a good man ‘not a bit common’ and ‘good at heart’. During this conversation, the Misfit obliges and then reveals against the grandmother’s attempts: ‘nome, I ain’t a good man’. From then on, the grandmother’s speech and attitudes become desperate to the point of losing her voice. She brings up religion and faith as another attempt to save herself: she tries to convince him to pray because Jesus will make him a good man. Unfortunately, calling up on grace and Christian principles makes no difference in the Misfit’s behavior. She even doubts Jesus at one point: 'maybe he didn't raise the dead'.  In fact, not even negotiation works for salvation: ‘I’ll give you all the money I got’.

This story portraits divine grace and salvation as two of its main themes so, the exchange between the misfit and the grandmother shows them as two sinful human beings calling up on grace to justify their behavior.

Throughout the story, the grandmother's attitude towards the Misfit changes drastically. At first she wants to stay far away from him, and doesn't want the children to go near him, but by the end, she tells him, "<span>one of [her] own children."</span>

I need help so much... can someone please help
jasenka [17]

Answer:

She painted her ideas and thoughts.

Explanation:

When you think about it, and really read the passage, don't think too hard. Ok what are my facts, she can't speak, and she draws and "dabbles" paint to express herself. It doesn't say anything about her writing songs. Her mother did, but she didn't. And its says nothing about studying as a teenager. So it must be the last answer,

She painted her ideas and thoughts.

In this passage, the author is trying to explain how the world trade system worked in the 18th century. He starts with a small, local example to then expand the ne across the globe.
