Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is the second option: Lizabeth learns that sympathy and understanding come from recognizing the truth about other people.  

Explanation:

In “Marigold” by Eugenia Collier, Lizabeth finds an immobile Mrs. Lottie on the marigold field and in that exact moment she realizes that Mrs. Lottie was never what she thought. This can be observed when she says: “The witch was no longer a witch but only a broken old woman who had dared to create beauty in the midst of ugliness and sterility”. After this situation, she realizes: “Innocence involves an unseeing acceptance of things at face value, an ignorance of the area below the surface.” And “This was the beginning of compassion, and one cannot have both compassion and innocence.”  These two statements illustrates Lizabeth's development.
