I think the answer C. Hope this helped!
I'm fairly sure the answers would be B, A, D, and C. I'm not entirely sure, so please let me know if it ends up being incorrect, but I'm nearly entirely sure that it's B, A, D, and C.
Good luck! :)
Answer:
C, It helps the reader see a truth about life
Explanation:
The reason the answer would be C is because A, B, and D are proven to be incorrect through process of elimination. . It is not clearly stated in the story because the author wants you to dig deep and read the story to develop a higher understanding. It won't necessarily be a one or two word phrase because usually a theme is developed throughout the whole book and can flucuate depending on how the reader envisions the story. It is not to create suspense either it is to teach you a lesson and help you learn something new about life.
