D. The characters' behaviors, motivations, and growth. 

Usually the theme of a story is not stated directly, the author shows the theme by how the characters grow and change. If you're reading about a character who starts off young, immature, or naive and by the end of the book he is mature, grownup, and more knowledgeable about the world the theme might be "Coming of Age". If a character goes through the book and people around him are dying--based on how the main character changes or reacts the theme might be "The Power of Death". 

Pay close attention to the main characters, how they change and grow, and look for themes wrapped within those changes.

2. ANALYZE. Reread lines 110-119 and identify the allusion, or reference to a well-known work that Mrs. White makes. What does t
Monica [59]

Answer:

A) The allusion can be found in lines 16 and 17. Mr Whites son had made reference to the fact that if he became an emperor, his father would no longer be <em>henpecked</em>.

B) Mrs White initially took the story about the paw with a pinch of salt. That is she didn't completely believe the story (if at all, that is).

Explanation:

A) To be henpecked means to be bullied or browbeaten.

Given that his son had recurrently beat him at the game of Chess, it was an ironical statement to state that an Emperor, his father would no longer have to endure such.

Recall that in lines 19 and 20 Mrs White had half sarcastically and half encouragingly told her husband that he would win the next game when all three (Father, Mother and Son) knew quite well that he was very bad at the game.

B)  In lines 97-99, she had jokingly asked her husband to wish 4 hands for her so that she would be able to multi-task and or have it easier with the domestic chores.

Her disposition, however, changed after the news of the death of their son came with the 200 pounds her husband had requested.

Cheers

In Ernest Hemingway’s “In Another Country,” why does the major most likely stay away from the hospital for three days?
Mkey [24]

 In Ernest Hemingway’s “In Another Country,” the major most likely stays away from the hospital for three days to mourn the death of his wife.

The major was very scornful towards doctors due to the fact that his injuries were not cured by them and he is skeptical about the fact that machines will succeed in curing the three soldiers who Nick befriended.

The short story “In Another Country,” is about an ambulance corps member in Milan during World War I.
