Answer:
The given circumstance mattered as it helped to develop the theme of inhumanity.
Yes, I think Steinback is right to think so.
Explanation:
The passage is taken from John Steinback's novel entitled 'The Grapes of Wrath.' The novel is set during the time of Great Depression and Dust Bowl.
One of the theme of that the author has portrayed in the novel is inhumanity of man over man. This is a repetitive theme found in the novel during the time of Great Depression and Dust Bowl.
In the given passage, Steinback is illustrating the same theme of inhumanity of man over man. The narrator is mourning over the fact that people who did not struggle to grow the crop were fed instead those who struggled. During the time of Great Depression, rich landowners in California became so inhumane that they hired immigrants to cultivate their farms but did not gave anything to them to eat. They were cruel to them and treated them with barbariously. For Steinback, this situation mattered as it helped to develop thhe theme of inhumanity.
Yes, I think Steinback was right to think so because who did not labour for the food were well fed and those who worked hard to reap the harvest were left empty stomach.
Because I don't know what the story is about, I'm limited on how to help you but I will try my best. B and C seem like a teaser. It is between A and D since those seem like the most reasonable ones to choose as an answer. I considered A as an option since I don't know what the story is about but I can at least make up a scenario. Assuming that the passage is about poems and poets since the answer choices all have some sort of form from the word "poem". I know that a theme is a subject or a topic so it could be a subtitle in the story. It's up to you now since I don't think I can help you any further than this. If you end up linking the story, then I may give you a proper response.
