Answer:
D)
. The boys' mother will not be gentle.
Explanation:
The short story "The Encounter" by M. Kendall Hunt tells the story of how two young college students left their house in a state of an array in the absence of their mother and the other family members. And the imminent 'scolding' that's on their way will be the highlight of the whole scenario, at least according to their younger brother Benjamin.
At the end of the story, we see the boys' mother calling them to get back inside so that they can talk. The way the narrator describes her voice, <em>"in a deceptively gentle tone"</em> suggests that she will not be gentle. Deceptive is a word we use to "conceal" or hide the real thing, and she used deception, gentleness to ask them back so that they will talk about the condition of the house. But we already know how she’ll react, for Benjamin reveals at the beginning of the story that <em>"[their] mother would have a coronary when she saw it".
</em>
Thus, the correct answer is option D.

"Oh, God", he thought, "what a strenuous career it is that I've chosen! Travelling day in and day out. Doing business like this takes much more effort than doing your own business at home, and on top of that there's the curse of travelling, worries about making train connections, bad and irregular food, contact with different people all the time so that you can never get to know anyone or become friendly with them. It can all go to Hell!"

"Getting up early all the time", he thought, "it makes you stupid. You've got to get enough sleep. Other travelling salesmen live a life of luxury. For instance, whenever I go back to the guest house during the morning to copy out the contract, these gentlemen are always still sitting there eating their breakfasts. I ought to just try that with my boss; I'd get kicked out on the spot. But who knows, maybe that would be the best thing for me. If I didn't have my parents to think about I'd have given in my notice a long time ago, I'd have gone up to the boss and told him just what I think, tell him everything I would, let him know just what I feel."
