Writing to Analyze Conflict

Question 2 • Language Arts 8 - ELA3008 IC

What evidence from The Land, Part 1 best supports the claim that Paul’s father does not believe in solving his son’s problems for him?

Answer
A
He asks Paul’s brothers to confront Mitchell.
B
He will not help Paul deal with his brothers.
C
He asks Mitchell’s mother to talk to her son.
D
He will not help Paul deal with Mitchell’s bullying.

Explanation

Paul’s father’s refusal to step in when Mitchell bullies Paul shows that he expects Paul to handle the problem himself. Asking Paul’s brothers to confront Mitchell would mean getting others to solve it for him, so choice D, “He will not help Paul deal with Mitchell’s bullying,” best supports the claim.
