Hi. You did not submit the excerpt your question refers to. This makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, when searching for the question on the internet, I was able to find a question exactly like yours that showed the excerpt presented in the attached figure below. In that case, I hope the answer below can help you.

Answer:

B. The connection between money and pride

Explanation:

The excerpts show how people who have money, property, beautiful clothes and cars are valued, regardless of personality and what they can offer. This overvaluation can make these people very proud, as well as those who have contact with them, because people with a lot of money are at a level that is difficult to be reached, and those who manage to reach must be proud of the achievement. Thus, we can see that both excerpts present the idea of how money and pride are directly related in our society.

What conflict arises between Mother and Mr. Weems? How is the conflict resolved, and how does this resolution affect Tom?

Colt1911 [192]

Answer and Explanation:

Mother, Mr. Weems, and Tom are characters in the short story "The Deep", by Anthony Doerr. Part of the story is set in 1929, the year of the Great Depression. Tom has a heart condition and, after his mother is told he will live up to be 16, 18 if he's lucky, she does everything she can to protect him. Since the doctor says to avoid surprises or excitement, Mother ends up making a recluse out of Tom.

Mr. Weems rents a room in Tom's house, and he does not agree with the way Tom's mother acts. One day, a girl Tom likes shows up to give him a jar full of tadpoles. Tom's mother throws them away angrily. This is where Mr. Weems decides to talk to her. He tells her Tom deserves to live his life, "stretch his legs". What he means is that there is no point in keeping him alive if he cannot do anything. If he is going to die, she might as well let him live.

The resolution is favorable. Mother starts to give Tom more freedom, and he gets to interact more with that girl. And it turns out Mr. Weems was right. Even though his heart condition makes him suffer, Tom enjoys being alive. By the end of the story, he is already 21 years old, and very grateful for having one more day to live.
