The theme that is supported by the excerpt is that people should indulge their curiosities. From the excerpt, we can infer that Odysseus’s curiosity about the Cyclops is much stronger than this good judgment.

Answer:
Joyous
Explanation:
Obviously if school was canceled, the students would be joyous.
They might be thankful, yes, but will most likely have more joy than gratitude because they are high schoolers who are probably not as focused on showing gratitude, but more on the fact that there is no school.
They are probably not really "active," which makes it sound like they are running laps because they are so happy.
And if they are erupting, that would make it sound like they are mad, like they are erupting with anger.
So joyous makes the most since.
'I Stand Here Ironing’ was written by Tillie Olsen. It is a popular short story published in 1961.
The story is told in the first person point of view. The most important point of view in the story is Emily's mother. She is remarried and she is a mother of five children. However, in the story, she speaks Emily, her first child. Through her words, we can percive how it is that the mother wanted a better life for Emily. But, as dhe sees it, lige is difficult for them because they are poor and they face some other negative experiences.
