Answer:
C) The author tells about seeing Russell as a grown-up and accepting him as is. That is the detail that best explains how the author develops the theme over the course of the text. In ¨About Russell¨ the author starts describing how his brother used to be as they were children and continues describing how he gradually changed as they grew up. She had a vision for what her brother would become which was different from what he actually became. But by the end of the text she states that a ¨A grown man, Russell simply will not do what he doesn’t want to¨. That indicated that he could not be forced to change and therefore she accepted him as he was indicated by the statement ¨...my family simply accepts him as is¨
That's for part A

The highwayman's anger was caused by the discovery of the death of Bess, the girl he loved.
Explanation:
The poem "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes tells the story of an unnamed highwayman falling in love with the daughter of an innkeeper. But the betrayal of Tim, the ostler, led Bess, the girl to sacrifice her life to save the highwayman from getting killed by the authorities.
The lines <em>"back he spurred like a madman, shouting a curse to the sky"</em> shows his anger at discovering that Bess had been killed while trying to save him. This was her way of making sure that he did not get captured and then tortured by the authorities, thereby showing her love for him. Thus, <u>the anger in him was a result of knowing Bess, his lover, had died at the hands of the authorities who were waiting for him.</u>
