Read the following excerpt from a bigger passage.

from Chasing Redbird
by Sharon Creech

When Aunt Jessie started to fret over the frost and the dying buds, I’d say, each morning, “There’s still a few left,” and, finally, “There’s still one left.” She didn’t seem impressed and said, “It’ll be dead soon.”

The dialogue in paragraph 5 reveals —

A)Aunt Jessie’s cruelty and the narrator’s hope for redemption.

B)Aunt Jessie’s pragmatism and the narrator’s need to gain approval.

C)Aunt Jessie’s fatalism and the narrator’s desire to console.

D)Aunt Jessie’s sarcasm and the narrator’s longing for acceptance

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is C) Aunt Jessie’s fatalism and the narrator’s desire to console.

Explanation:

In this excerpt, there is a dialogue between Aunt Jessie and the narrator; moreover, this dialogue focuses on the dying buds. About this, it can be said the perspective of Aunt Jessie is negative and fatalists because she does not believe any of the buds will survive and even claims those that are still alive will die, this is shown in "It’ll be dead soon." On the opposite, the narrator is more positive about the situation and tries to focus on the alive buds "There’s still a few left" probably to console or make the aunt feel better. In this context, the dialogue shows "Aunt Jessie’s fatalism and the narrator’s desire to console."

Read the passage below. Those who argue for the continuation of space exploration say that the benefits outweigh the great financial costs. One such argument is that many scientific advancements, such as the artificial heart, were partially a result of space exploration. Another benefit mentioned by those in favor is that the insulation used to keep homes warm is now more efficient because of what was learned from insulating space shuttles that were sent into space. Many advancements in technology have been linked to space travel. Based on the phrase "another benefit mentioned,” how is home insulation connected to space exploration? Innovations in space exploration showed that it was necessary to insulate homes. Innovations in space exploration contributed to the efficiency of insulating people's homes.
