Read the excerpt from “The Treasure of Lemon Brown.” Lemon Brown didn’t move. Greg felt himself near panic. The steps came close

r, and still Lemon Brown didn’t move. He was an eerie sight, a bundle of rags standing at the top of the stairs, his shadow on the wall looming over him. Maybe, the thought came to Greg, the scene could be even eerier. Greg wet his lips, put his hands to his mouth and tried to make a sound. Nothing came out. He swallowed hard, wet his lips once more and howled as evenly as he could. “What’s that?” As Greg howled, the light moved away from Lemon Brown, but not before Greg saw him hurl his body down the stairs at the men who had come to take his treasure. There was a crashing noise, and then footsteps. A rush of warm air came in as the downstairs door opened, then there was only an ominous silence. Which statement most accurately describes Lemon Brown’s and Greg's actions in the excerpt? Greg’s actions prove that he hopes to win the trust of Lemon Brown so that he will hand over his treasure to him. Lemon Brown’s and Greg’s actions reveal that they have had problems in the past with the men looking for the treasure. Greg’s brave actions prove to Lemon Brown that Greg can be trusted to keep his treasure. Lemon Brown’s courage inspires Greg to also stand up to the neighborhood thugs.

Answer:

The statement which most accurately describes Lemon Brown's and Greg's actions in the excerpt is:

D. Lemon Brown's courage inspires Greg to also stand up to the neighborhood thugs.

Explanation:

Greg and Lemon Brown are characters in the story "The Treasure of Lemon Brown", by Walter Dean Myers. Greg is just a boy who is having trouble with his father. They argue because of Greg's grades, so Greg heads to an abandoned warehouse for a pickup game. That is where he meets Lemon Brown.

<u>As some thugs walk in, Lemon Brown and Greg have very different reactions. Greg panics, but Brown chooses to face the thugs and protect his treasure. Seeing so much courage, Greg feels inspired. He then howls to distract the thugs, which gives Brown the chance to attack them. Having that in mind, we can choose letter D as the correct answer:</u>

D. Lemon Brown's courage inspires Greg to also stand up to the neighborhood thugs.
