PLZ HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIST
Refer to the passage from "The Wise Fool.”

Further discussion seemed useless, and the meeting was just about to break up when the fool walked up and demanded to be heard. "Listen to me,” he said. "The fairies say my mother should die. It is a fair punishment for her crime. But the fairies walked across my land as they came to the village. I demand that they rub out their footprints before they are allowed to take mother away.” It seemed a foolish, meaningless demand, and everyone said, "How simple!” The fairies agreed.

At sundown the fairies were still working on the sandy plot. Two days went by. And a week. And another. Because just as one set of footprints were got rid of, another set appeared. By the end of the second week, in fact, the fairies had covered the entire plot with footprints. At last they gave up and let the woman live.

What is the moral of the passage?

It is unwise to make deals with fairies.
It is impossible to erase all of one’s footprints.
There can be wisdom in an act that seems foolish.
A punishment should be fair and based on the crime.

Option 3 is the answer:

From the comprehension passage given, it is clear that there can be wisdom in an act that seems foolish.

  • The foolish act that was cleaning o footprints led to the fairies making more while cleaning and stopping which led to the mother's life being saved.
  • Option one does not relate to the main message of the passage as it is not the focus.
  • Option 2 is not true because it is possible.
  • Option 3 is not relevant to the comprehension passage.
  • When answering questions in a comprehension passage it is important to understand the paragraph and read through it thoroughly and to understand what message is being conveyed by the writer.
