The answer is pseudo listening. His grandfather was hurt because Derrick is pretending that he listens to his stories but in fact, Derrick finds these so "boring". Derrick does not want to hurt his grandfather that is why he acts as if he is really listening. Pseudo-listening is the term when an individual partially or totally ignores the speaker but not act rude to avoid hurting his feelings.

Rainbow [258]
I'd say that 

C. a stone carving, is the correct answer because a reed basket, pieces of clothing and clay plots would be most likely made by women.

Hope this helps.

What are the different uses of the themes of love honor and respectability in the story?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

In the story "A rose for Emily" written by the author William Faulkner there are several events that have to do with the ideas of love, honor and respectability.

Explanation:

In the story "A rose for Emily" written by the author William Faulkner there are several events that have to do with the ideas of love, honor and respectability.

For example when talking about Miss Emily Grierson, it is possible to highlight her traits as an African-American woman that was satisfactorily a  representant of her race, which meant in her place of residence a clear display of honor and respect; due to all the social and cultural aspects that her own race represented there, as a show of bravery, courage and pride.

On the other hand it is possible to talk about the love represented in different scenes of the story, for example when Emily's father passes away she accepted how deep she loved him since, she does not even want to accept the event itself and she wants the body to stay just there with her. The ladies of town who organize a visit to Emily's house in order to show support after her dad has gone could also be considered as a show of love for Miss Emily, since they want her to feel that she is not alone, that she has to many people that cares about her.

Finally, it could be said that a real show of honor and respectability through the story is the decision taken by Colonel Sartoris when he establishes that after Emily`s father death, she does not have to pay taxes to town anymore due to all the social contribution from her father and family to the community.
