Answer:

"How dumb can you get!" said Robert. "A colossal waste of time if you ask me. So get going! Scram! Shoo!"

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

  • “You sound as though you never went to school. Or maybe you are a teacher yourself?”
  • "How dumb can you get!" said Robert. "A colossal waste of time if you ask me. So get going! Scram! Shoo!"
  • "I'm sorry," Robert said meekly, though the whole thing was getting weirder and weirder.
  • "It's just that all those ones give me a headache. They actually make things more complicated than they are."

This is the quote that best describes how the dynamic between the number devil and Robert develops throughout the story. In this sentence, we see that Robert opposes the character and wishes of the devil. While the devil wants to help Robert, and considers himself quite intelligent, Robert keeps reminding him of the fact that he is "dumb" and that Robert does not want his help. Therefore, we learn that one purpose of Robert's character is to oppose the number devil.

Read the excerpt from My Story. She took me up a flight of stairs (the cells were on the second level), through a door covered with iron mesh, and along a dimly lighted corridor. She placed me in an empty dark cell and slammed the door closed. She walked a few steps away, but then she turned around and came back. She said, "There are two girls around the other side, and if you want to go over there with them instead of being in a cell by yourself, I will take you over there.” I told her that it didn’t matter, but she said, "Let’s go around there, and then you won’t have to be in a cell alone.” It was her way of being nice. It didn’t make me feel any better. How does Rosa Parks help the reader understand her emotions in this excerpt? by describing in detail the order of what happened to her by comparing her feelings to those of other prisoners she met by sharing the exact dimensions of the prison cell she was put in by explaining how her feelings were expressed as pain in her body
