1. Which choice best describes a major theme of the passage?"
O The corrupting influence of a materialistic society
The moral purity of young children
O The bittersweet brevity of childhood naivete
O The restorative power of parental love


Sagot :

The main theme of the passage is the bittersweet brevity of childish naivete, as shown in the third answer option.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The text shows how Eppie keeps thinking about the happiness she has already lived and is currently experiencing, even in the face of the difficulties she is facing.
  • She can find satisfaction in little things and is naive enough to enjoy her new life without thinking about the problems she has.

Eppie is a child and this naivete and purity is something common to her age, even though she is living in an environment that tries to take it away from her at all costs.

Eppie is a character from the book "Silas Marner" and the passage to which the question refers is in the image below.
