When the old man and his wife saw this, they understood that it was a reward to them from Shiro for their faithful love to him. They tasted the cakes and found them nicer than any other food. So from this time they never troubled about food, for they lived upon the cakes with which the mortar never ceased to supply them.

True or False: Making connections in research is an excellent way to illuminate the meaning of a subject.
zhuklara [117]

1. <u>I would say this is true,</u> making connections is an excellent way to help people understand the meaning of a subject.  Especially if you connect something hard to understand with something that is easier to understand.

2. <u>The answer for this question would be D.</u>  If you are looking to understand all perspectives on a topic, you would want to explore opinions from people who both support the topic in addition to people who oppose, as well.  This will guarantee that when you write about a topic. you are not biased to one opinion more than another.   You have to do your research equally.  

3.<u> My answer for this question would be A. Theme.</u>  The theme of a story is the known as the underlying message or "big idea".  I chose A for this question by taking notice of key words from the question such as "<em>main point</em>" and "<em>statement</em>".  Only in the theme of a story will you find the story's statement.
