We first need to understand what the Oedipus myth is to determine which of the statements is a fact. According to the play, Oedipus was doomed to kill his father and marry his mother, Because of this, his father ordered him be killed. This did not happen and he was abandoned and discovered by a neighboring king. When he was older, he was told this and fled the city to avoid the prophecy coming true. He meets Laius on the road, kills him, and then goes to Corinth, where he marries Laius' wife Jocasta. At the end of the play, Oedipus discovers that Jocasta is his mother and that he has murdered his father, causing him to pluck his eyes out and be exiled from the city because of his sins. With this in mind, we can say that the first choice, that Lauis and Jocasta are his parents, is the best answer here.

Which theme would be advanced by the tone in the above passage best?
marshall27 [118]

here is the full passage for this question

Richie had felt a mad, exhilarating kind of energy growing in the room. . . . He thought he recognized the feeling from his childhood, when he felt it everyday and had come to take it merely as a matter of course. He supposed that, if he had ever thought about that deep-running aquifer of energy as a kid (he could not recall that he ever had), he would have simply dismissed it as a fact of life, something that would always be there, like the color of his eyes . . . .

I believe the answer is: b.Childhood has a magical quality that slips away.

From the excerpt, we can see how Richie is mesmerized by the type of energy that he as a child could have with the things that exist in the childhood room. He probably wondering how such simple things could bring happiness to children while adults cannot achieve the same level of happiness with more extravagant things.
