How dose the detail of the children on the spirit’s legs contribute to the overall text?
gtnhenbr [62]

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

How does the detail of the children on the spirit’s legs contribute to the overall text?

A. They represent Ignorance and Want, which the spirit warns Scrooge to beware of.

B. They symbolize two of society’s ills which cling to Christmas: the desire to receive instead of to give, and the failure to acknowledge suffering.

C. They represent Ignorance and Want, two of Scrooge’s faults that hopefully have been corrected by the spirit’s visit.

D. The author likely includes these children to remind readers to care for those in need during Christmas time.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. They symbolize two of society’s ills which cling to Christmas: the desire to receive instead of to give, and the failure to acknowledge suffering.

Explanation:

   Undoubtedly two of the society's ills wich cling to Christmas is the desire to receive, and never think about those who have the least.

This is exactly what the children represent in the spirit's legs. Children with deprivation and poverty while others have everything, and still want more.

This story tells the life of a selfish and sullen man who changes his way of being during a cold Christmas due to the visit of three ghosts, and it is precisely about symbolizing this problem in society, and trying to change it.
