I came home to find the entire kitchen floor covered in scraps of sock:

Answer:

D. Jake tore up the main character's socks.

Explanation:

Well, all of the other answers do not make sense.

B does not make sense beacause Jake probably also eats other things and nothing in the passage says he only eats socks.

C does not make sense because nothing in the passage says Jake is the main chaecters brother.

A and D were probably the answers you were confused with.

A would kinda make sense but it is quite obvious that in the passage they do not focus on the fact that Jake brought the socks to the kitchen at all.

They focus on the fact Jake broke the sock.

So D would be a reasonable explanation and is basically the only one that makes sense.

That is my answer!

The butterfly Eckels kills is easy—the butterfly effect. Also, butterflies represent freedom, a freedom he killed when his actions changed the outcome of the election.

The path they’re supposed to stay on is written destiny. It’s the path that needs to be taken in order to get back to their normal lives.

The bullets represent the disturbance of the past, and future, all at once.
