In the story Little Women, one family brings breakfast to another on Christmas morning. Read this passage and then answer the qu
estion that follows: A poor, bare, miserable room it was, with broken windows, no fire, ragged bedclothes, a sick mother, wailing baby, and a group of pale, hungry children cuddled
under one old quilt, trying to keep warm.
How the big eyes stared and the blue lips smiled as the girls went in
"Ach, mein Gott! It is good angels come to us!" said the poor woman, crying for joy.
What implicit meaning can you find about the sick woman and her children from this text?
The mother did not know how to start a fire.
The mother's illness made her children hate her.
The mother was unable to provide for their needs.
The mother and children lived in an abandoned building
Since the room had open windows and no fire going in the middle of winter, the text explicitly tells the reader that the children were cold. At the same time, the author describes the children as "hungry," from which the reader knows they have not eaten in a long time. HOPE THIS HELPS!!! :)))
The stage in the writing process when you check your work to verify detail and a valid thesis statement is the: Revising stage. During the editing stage you check your essay for any type of grammar mistakes and faults. Hope that helps.
