<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is: Okeke disowns Nnaemeka for not marrying the woman he chose.

<u>Explanation:</u>

From the given passage, we understand that Okeke rips out the picture of Nnaemeka's bride with him on their marriage and wrote back to his son about how bad he felt about this marriage.

This passage is an example of a patriarchal culture as Okeke is unable to accept that his son has married a woman which was not chosen by him so he disowned his son as he made a decision on his own.

In this case, the idea that Roosevelt is trying to emphasize is that the United Nations will strike again, because of its strength and power. By repeating the word "strike," he is making sure that the listener understands the extent of this promise and the power of the UN.

Read the excerpt from "As Good as Gold."
Wittaler [7]

There are five elements of a plot: Exposition, conflict, raising action, climax, falling action and Resolution. From these elements, the one that approaches best to that excerpt is Resolution. The word "finally" can be a signal word that denotes the ending part and Resolution means that the conflict has been solved and indicates the ending, which it really makes sense, since after all the things happened in Jake's life, at the end "I expect we'll need three servings of bacon today" refering maybe to a happy ending.
