The correct answer is C. Jerry challenges himself for more.

Being a young boy, he has felt for a long time as if he was in charge of his mother and vice versa. Both of them are overprotective. Jerry seeks independence, yet he is afraid of abandoning his widowed mother. When he separates from her to go to another beach, he feels as if he was betraying her. But his urge to go his own way is stronger. True, he feels the peer pressure of those boys, and is afraid of not being able to beat the challenge they posed for him. But his real, deep and intimate urge is to challenge himself, and not compete with them. When he dives through that tunnel under the sea, he risks his life. But he doesn't give up, as that venture is his own, and he wants to experience it. Once he beat that challenge, he goes back to his mother, calm and serene, and doesn't even feel a need to tell her about it. He is more mature and independent now than he was at the beginning of the story.

Reread lines 43 – 58. How has the narrator’s relationship with her husband changed? Support you answer with explicit textual evi
frutty [35]
I don't know which edition you're referring to. I suppose the lines 43-58 are actually the third paragraph. So, here's the answer:

The narrator's relationship with her husband has changed because of a supernatural influence that she can't exactly explain or fathom. She doesn't really know what happened, when, or why, but at night her husband was not the same person she married. "It’s the moon’s fault, and the blood. It was in his father’s blood," she reasons. Her husband is alienated because of this, and somehow she feels that they don't belong together anymore. He goes out to find those who are like him. "Something comes over the one that’s got the curse in his blood, they say, and he gets up because he can’t sleep, and goes out into the glaring sun, and goes off all alone — drawn to find those like him."

What is the literal meaning of the following quote?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

The literal meaning of the following quote "The land thou knowst not, / place of fear, where thou findest out / that sin-flecked being. Seek if thou dare!" is (c) which says go into those unknown lands and find Grendel's mother, if you are brave enough. "The land thou knowst not, / place of fear, this means land that nobody has ever been to. Where thou findest out / that sin-flecked being refers to Grendel's mother and Seek if thou dare refers to if you are brave enough to face the danger of going into the land.
