Question

read the passage from \the raven and the first men; the beginnings of the haida.\

the men were hungry and thirsty, but there was no food on the large sandy beach, and the salt water just made them thirstier. determined to take care of the men he had found, raven flew to find them provisions. when he returned, he gave them almost everything they would ever need.

still, raven could tell the men were not truly happy. they did not have companions to join them in caring for the earth. so raven, wise and determined, searched the earth and sea until he found a group of women trapped inside a chiton. he brought them to the men. the two groups of humans fit well together, and raven became very protective of his people.

based on the passage, the haida had values that

• were centered around their physical needs.
• encompassed physical and emotional needs.
• were centered around caring for the ocean.
• encompassed caring for raven and the ocean.

Explanation:

1. Analyze Option 1: The passage shows the Haida's needs weren't just physical. After Raven provided physical provisions, the men still weren't happy because they lacked companions (emotional need). So this option is incorrect.
2. Analyze Option 2: Raven first met the men's physical needs (food, provisions) and then their emotional need for companionship (by finding women for them). This shows their values encompassed both physical and emotional needs. This option fits.
3. Analyze Option 3: The passage focuses on Raven caring for the men, not the Haida caring for the ocean. There's no indication of ocean - centered values. So this option is wrong.
4. Analyze Option 4: The passage is about Raven caring for the Haida, not the Haida caring for Raven or the ocean. So this option is incorrect.

Answer:

B. encompassed physical and emotional needs.
