Explanation:
I took the test
Answer:
The theme of the story is "trusting family and friends when you need them"
It is easy to identify the theme, since the main character goes through an ordeal when he gets lost; however, relying on a friend lets him find the way out of the situation.
Building long-life relationships is also shown in the story as a virtue, since the character had a shy personality and it was really hard for him to make friends.
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the following passage and answer the question.
I verily believe that buttoning himself up in so downy and blanket – like a coat had a pernicious effect upon him; upon the same principle that too much oats are bad for horses. In fact, precisely as a rash, restive horse is said to feel his oats, so Turkey felt his coat. It made him insolent. He was a man whom prosperity harmed.
What do these lines suggest about the narrator?
a) He is disappointed that his gifts are not appreciated.
b) He wishes he had not given away his favorite coat.
c) He worries that his employees are suffering.
d) He feels that people should be content with what they have.
Answer:
These lines suggest:
d) He feels that people should be content with what they have.
Explanation:
In the passage we are analyzing, the narrator is visibly criticizing someone for "feeling his coat," making a pun out of the expression "to feel his oats." <u>The person he is criticizing changed while wearing what seems to be a fancy coat. This transformation is disappointing to the narrator. It shows that that person is probably greedy. Instead of being happy with what he has, Turkey seems to want more and, when he does get some more, he changes, becomes "insolent". That is clearly something that bothers the narrator.</u>
I believe that the answer you are looking for would be B. Here are some reasons why I think so:
1. <span>The twins represent the two ways of the world which are in all people. This is meaning that it is going directly with choice B, and they compare them
2. </span><span>The right-handed twin became angry and resentful. He was the truthful twin who always did the right thing. The left-handed twin was deceitful and did everything backward. You could never trust him. In this little bunch of sentences right here, It's doing exactly what B says, it's comparing the two sides of human nature.
I hope that this could help you and have a great day! If you need more help you can send me a DM! </span>
