Answer:

He is humiliated by his defeat

Explanation:

Using the system of elimination you can cross out a few answers. He is not eager to confront his son because of the way it was written. He is not carrying his belongings because if you read a little bit further on his belongings had been taking by his son (the badgers). This would leave you with either him being exhausted by his struggle or being humiliated by his defeat. They both made sense to me but I think he was humiliated because he was confident about continuing to hunt them even though he was warned.

What is the connotative meaning of this line from Kurt Vonnegut's "Report on the Barnhouse Effect"?
alukav5142 [94]
When you think about Thanksgiving cooking, typically you think of a rush to get everything done and to put all of the food onto the table so that everyone can eat. There is a tone of rushing and impatience being conveyed. Therefore, I would say that 4 is the most suitable answer. General Barker is clearly in a hurry and is under some stress. I hope this helps.
