The climax of Their Eyes Were Watching God happens when Janie kills Tea Cake with the rifle.

At this point, Tea Cake is very sick and acting crazy. He is accusing her of betraying him and is utterly paranoid. She finds a gun under his pillow and becomes increasingly afraid.

When he later grabs the gun and attempts to shoot her, she retaliates with a rifle, shooting him in self-defense. This moment is important because Janie has stood up for herself and saved her life, even against the man she loved. This moment is a defining one for her character.

Which excerpt from Wright's "The Man Who Was Almost a Man" best supports the inference that Dave and his father do not have a cl
lesya692 [45]

The correct answer is A.

In Wright's "The Man Who Was Almost a Man," a seventeen year old, wants to buy a gun to get the respect he feels he deserves and to show that he is no longer a child.

However, when he has to ask money to buy the gun, he decides to ask his mother instead of his father because he knows his father will immediately say no.

This reflects that Dave and his father do not have a close relationship since Dave doesn't feel that his father would listen to him and consider his request.

Which themes are portrayed in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich? Praskovya Fedorovna came of a good famil
Pie
As usual in life, motives can be complicated. The theme of Ivan Illych marrying this woman because of her money and her social position is one possibility that he discusses (she comes from a "good" family and has some property). The other theme is that she is pretty and he fell in love with her and to some extent she complements his views on life. In choosing from the options, re the themes, I would say that a) conforming to social conventions and b) the necessity of companionshp should be the two main themes in this excerpt.
