Question

Which detail from "The Chenoo" would best support the theme "family bonds are strong"? The two brothers remember a story their great-grandfather told them. Both men run back toward their camp to check on their sister. Nolka heats a pile of rocks for her brothers' evening sweat lodge. Nolka's brothers stop talking when she holds up a hand to her mouth.

Answer 1

Answer:

Both men run back toward their camp to check on their sister.

Explanation:

Joseph and James Bruchac's short story "The Chenoo" is a folktale about a mythical creature that has a heart of ice and kills any man he comes across. And through the brave act of the three siblings, the "curse" on the monster was lifted and they got their grandfather back.

While her brothers went hunting, Nolka was at their tent preparing whatever game they brought back. On the day the brothers discovered the footprints of the Chenoo, she was unaware of it. So, once the brothers figured out that the prints were headed to their camp, they rushed back to their sister, fearing for the monster to kill her. This act of rushing back shows the bond of family, the ties that bind them so strongly together.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
