3 0

Answer:

B. The beginning of a life together.

Explanation:

The short story "Dish Night" by Michael Martone tells the story of two unnamed protagonists, a couple whose opinions about life are represented by the collection of dishes. The dishes represent two aspects of the couple, for the young girl, it represents the family life she wished to get and for the young man, it represents the life he wished to live with her and his love for her.

The young girl sees the collection of the dishes as a representation of the large family she wanted, <em>"collecting enough pieces for [their] family of eight."</em> On the other hand, the young man sees the dishes as <em>"the movie of [his] life, this walking home under the moon from a movie with a girl holding a dinner plate under her arm like a book." </em>But one similarity is that both view the collection of dishes as something that will bring them together, one with the desire for a large family and the other desiring a life with her, representative of his love for her.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
