Answer:
The two statements which describe the main themes of the story are:
A. The freedom to express oneself is valued by many, but some people discourage it and fear its consequences.
D. Creativity and creation can bring great joy.
Explanation:
"Daughter of Invention" is a short story by J.ulia Alvarez. The narrator is a girl who has been chosen to give a speech in front of her teachers and classmates. The creation of the speech brings her great joy. She fills inspired, energized by the words she has chosen and the message she is going to convey. She speaks of independence, of students surpassing their masters.
Her father, upon reading the speech, has an extreme reaction. He tears it to pieces and tells her she is being insubordinate. The narrator's father has lived through a dictatorship. He knows very well the consequences of speaking one's mind - he has lost loved ones because of that. Thus, he discourages freedom of speech, afraid of the consequences it may bring.

Explanation:
A simple predicate is a verb or the action that the subject does. It is the main verb in the sentence that tells us what the subject does or what is the action done.
Among the given options, the sentence that contains or has the simple predicate is the second sentence. Here, the subject "she" buys a book, with the verb "bought" being the main verb and does not contain any emphasis or modifiers in it.
So, <u>the word "bought" within the parenthesis is the simple predicate</u>.
Thus, the correct answer is the second sentence.
