What is the theme of this passage? How do the plot, characterization, and setting convey this theme? Passage Susan, Theodore, an

d their grown son, Abraham, suddenly stopped talking. The three of them sat around the small, wobbly table looking sadly into their hands. There was nothing they could do to keep the bank from taking their land. Their crops had dried up and blown away, whirling their life's savings into the dry, hot sky. Susan stood, put her cracked fingers over her mouth, and walked around the bare kitchen. She wasn't done fighting yet — she just needed something to inspire her. Something to give her hope. A golden glint shining from across the yard in the barn caught her eye. She squinted, forcing the glare into a diamond-shaped fuzziness between her eyelids. There was something there. "Theodore, Abraham, I've figured it out. I know how we'll save the farm. Put your hats on and meet me in the barn," Susan ordered as she slipped her feet into her boots.

Answer:

The theme of this passage is the ability to find solutions in the midst of adverse situations.

Explanation:

This passage shows three characters, probably a family, who had negative results from their work as farmers and are about to lose their farm, when in the midst of despair, one of the characters finds something that can help them.

The plot makes it very clear that the characters are hardworking people, this can be seen by their sadness at losing the farm and by the characterization that shows that they have suffered hands and impacted by hard and heavy work.

Faced with the narration, we can see that the characters are without hope and without the strength to fight, which means that one of them searches the horizon for anything that can help them.
