The right answer is "C. Love is often demonstrated though personal sacrifice".

The explanation for this answer is in the excerpt "... when the armed guards board the bus, the mother leaves her son sleeping in the arms of a friend and lets himself be arrested." That is, this mother loved her son so much that she sacrificed herself so that he had the chance to have a better life.

When she allows herself to be arrested by the guards, her son has a chance to escape because the guards are already busy.

Determine the use of the prepositional phrase in the following sentence.
ycow [4]
The correct answer is "adverb". This is because "within the old trunk" refers to the place where it was found, not a description of the trinket itself.

PART A: Which sentences describes the main theme of the short story? of the story "Charles"
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A. Children sometimes act out when they’re attempting to figure out who they are.

Explanation:

The short story "Charles" by Shirley Jackson tells the story of a young boy Laurie who makes up the character of Charles as a reason for the problem in school. He makes up his alter ego Charles to justify the acts done in school and most probably, his actions in school.

The story tells Laurie who would always tell stories of his friend Charles doing this and that, hitting others, disobeying the teacher, getting punished, etc. The narrator, being the mother of Laurie, was not impressed with her child's schoolmate. So, she decided to find out Charles' mother in an attempt to find out more about hi, only to be told that there is no Charles in the kindergarten. This seems to suggest to the bigger picture that children act out when they are attempting to figure out their own identity.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
