a person who wrote a book
Answer: C) Hope and calmness
Explanation:
After reading the present task and doing some research on the displayed topic, I think it is fair to conclude that the motifs which are being examined through Santiago's dreams of the lions on the beach are hope and calmness, since in literature dreaming of lions symbolizes youth, strenght, happiness and hope.
Also, lions for Santiago's situation may be a way to reflect his relationship with the marlin for whom he had deep feelings for and feels pity that its death had to take place in order for him to survive.
The character Mowgli was nurtured, just not by humans. Therefore, it is not answer C. Also, he was not "rejected by society" or an "outcast" so it is not A or B. The answer is D. Mowgli is a man who has grown up according to the rules and customs of the jungle, as it says, BUT even though he is a man, his ideas of etiquette and communication are those of animals, rather than people. Because of this, Mowgli does not understand "the law of men" which refers to how humans behave, which causes him to not be able to "fit in" with society. It's basically a cultural barrier. The whole theme of the story is that he is still human, even if his way of life is different. Sometimes, certain cultures look down upon others because they have different customs, which is rude and ignorant. This story has a theme of recognizing people as humans in spite of cultural differences.
