Question

1. multiple choice: which piece of evidence best reveals tom still cares for frances?

a. \people dont know what to do in these situations.\ (paragraph 41).
b. \what happened to frances? we havent seen her in a while.\ (paragraph 39)
c. \in new york she told me she loved breakfast in bed, and i tried to do that one small thing for her every day.\ (paragraph 43)
d. \joe was asking about you, i said. maybe itd be nice to get out and socialize.\ (paragraph 50)

Explanation:

Option A is a general statement about difficult situations, showing no specific care for Frances. Option B is a question about her whereabouts, but it is a casual inquiry rather than evidence of ongoing care. Option C shows Tom consistently doing a small, thoughtful act (trying to make her breakfast in bed daily) based on something Frances mentioned, which is direct evidence he still cares for her. Option D is a suggestion to socialize, which does not reflect personal care for Frances.

Answer:

C. "In New York she told me she loved breakfast in bed, and I tried to do that one small thing for her every day." (Paragraph 43)
