Answer:
She is sad because the narrator's return means that the moment has come when she will need to leave the house where she lived for many years and has many memories.
Explanation:
"My Old Home," shows the moment when the narrator returns to his hometown, after 20 years, to help his family move to another home. The house where the narrator grew up is no longer of the same quality and needs to be abandoned. The narrator feels strange when reviewing the house, because he no longer has the emotional attachment to this place and does not feel that this is his house. He realizes that his mother is also a little sad, probably because she lived in this house for many years and leaving for another house, causes her to leave many precious memories behind.

The given question is incomplete as the excerpt is not given. The excerpt should be given below:
'O. Henry's short story "The Gift of Magi" is about a couple who are deeply in love. Della and Jim are poor, but they each want to buy the other a special Christmas present. Because they have no money, they sell their own priced possessions to be able to afford presents for each other. O. Henry uses his short story "The Gift of Magi" to show that poverty cannot affect true love. Despite having no luxuries, Della and Jim are willing to make sacrifices for each other because their love is true.'
The sentence in this excerpt from a literary analysis essay which is most likely the thesis statement is 'O. Henry uses his short story "The Gift of Magi" to show that poverty cannot affect true love.' A thesis statement is typically stated in a single sentence, however it might be repeated elsewhere.

- Della sells her hair so that she may afford a chain for Jim's pocket watch, while Jim sells his lovely pocket watch so that he can buy a brooch for Della's lovely long hair.
- As a result, their tangible gifts are meaningless, but one has nonetheless shown the other that they are capable of sacrificing their most valued assets for one another, so demonstrating their love for one another.
- The real gift they both receive from the Magi on that particular Christmas day is this realisation.
Therefore, the sentence in this excerpt from a literary analysis essay which is most likely the thesis statement is 'O. Henry uses his short story "The Gift of Magi" to show that poverty cannot affect true love.' An essay's, research paper's, etc. core idea or claim is succinctly summarised in the thesis statement.
