Answer:

O Turner feels stifled in the town but free in the open air  of the beach.

Explanation:

Gary D. Schmidt's book "Lizzie Bright and The Buckminster Boy" is a story of friendship amidst racism and love between friends who are bounded by their society. The story also deals with the theme of religion and truth and what freedom means for the two friends despite their differing racial backgrounds.

In the given excerpt from the story, Turner is seen escaping to the beach-side to breathe some fresh air. This is literally and metaphorically plausible, for he felt free on the beach, <em>"breathing hard and deep, like  something that was only just coming alive and drinking in  the liquid air for the first delicious time."</em> He turned his back<em> "to all of Phippsburg-Lord, to the entire continent"</em> suggesting that he felt freer and more at ease at the beach than in the town.

This shows that <u>Turner's internal conflict of feeling stifled in the town but felt free in the open air of the beach resonates with the setting.</u>

Which strategies should be used to answer short answer or essay questions
Firdavs [7]
For short answer skip the ones you don't know and then go back to them at the end. Write the essays first so you don't run out of time. If you don't know the material fully just put down what you do know and then reword it a few ways to make your essay longer. Also, look for clues in the other test questions that could give you information on either responses. Hope that helped!
