Answer:

Lizabeth's character develops in the sense that:

C. Lizabeth learns that sympathy and understanding come from recognizing the truth about other people.

Explanation:

Eugenia Collier's short story "Marigolds" takes place during the Great Depression. The main character, Lizabeth, is a 14-year-old girl who lives in a poor neighborhood. The poorest and ugliest of the houses belongs to Miss Lottie, however it is the house that has a most beautiful garden full of marigolds. Lizabeth, her brother, and the other kids in the neighborhood often throw rocks into the garden and call Miss Lottie a witch.

<u>The main theme of the story is about maturing and developing empathy for others. Lizabeth, while throwing a tantrum, completely destroys the garden of marigolds. It is only then that she realizes she was simply projecting her anger about her family's awful situation in life. She is finally able to see that Miss Lottie's garden brings a little bit of beauty into this miserable world, where poor people can only remain poor. Lizabeth leaves her childhood behind when she understands who Miss Lottie is, as well as herself.</u>

How does the use of stanzas affect the meaning of "Pears" and "Hunger"?
Sav [38]

The correct answer is "In both poems, the final stanza sums up the poem's meaning."

In "Pears", the first stanza describes how the speaker's aunties have swelled at the waist and resemble pears, but this swelling is due to the goodness of their lives, making a refuge for a child. Thus, in the second stanza we are told that the sweetest people the speaker knows are those who resemble pears, because of what he or she explained in the first stanza.

In "Hunger", stanzas from 1 to 3 describe the feeling of hunger and how to "cure it" with lots of food. In stanza number 4, the speaker is not feeling good after she or he ate a lot. Finally, the last stanza is the one that sums the poem meaning, telling us that hunger is suppressed by eating (stanzas 1-3) but do not eat too much or you will feel sick (stanza 4), thus summing up the meaning of the whole poem.
