Answer:

Our Town is considered a universal work of literature because

C) The theme of Our Town transcends time and location.

Explanation:

"Our Town" is a play by Thornton Wilder. It tells the story of Emily and George, daughter and son of two of the main families in the fictional town of Grover's Corners. The story begins in 1901 and covers a part of Emily and George's childhood. The two of them get married but Emily dies at childbirth. The lesson learned by Emily after her death is that the living have very little understanding of life and death, and are incapable of seizing and enjoying the moment.

The theme above is universal. Life and death, childhood and maturity, a deeper understanding of life and love, it can all revolve around characters who live anywhere in the world at any time period. It is not exclusive of certain people, countries, or cultures. Even if we did not know anything about the play, we could infer the answer due to the explanation offered in the question. Aristotle said literature indicates what is true for all times and ages. We were told to read Aristotle's saying before choosing an answer. Therefore, we can safely conclude the best option is C) The theme of Our Town transcends time and location.

3241004551 [841]

The correct answer is B. Punches his air with his fists and makes growling sounds.

Explanation

In the sentence, the phrase "crazy things" is very broad and can be interpreted in many ways. For this reason, if you want to give a more precise sense of the complete meaning of the sentence, it would be appropriate to replace the phrase "crazy things" with something more specific. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Punches his air with his fists and makes growling sounds, because this option specifies the attitude that Alex takes when he is mad.
