Question

Read the passage from “Initiation.” And from that time on, initiations didn't bother Millicent at all. She went gaily about Lewiston Square from store to store asking for broken crackers and mangoes, and she just laughed inside when people stared and then brightened, answering her crazy questions as if she were quite serious and really a person of consequence. So many people were shut up tight inside themselves like boxes, yet they would open up, unfolding quite wonderfully, if only you were interested in them. And really, you didn't have to belong to a club to feel related to other human beings.
 Based on the indirect characterization, which is the most logical inference? Millicent is beginning to become unhinged from the initiations. Millicent is beginning to question her decision to join the sorority. Millicent is learning valuable information from the people she talks to. Millicent is learning how to manipulate people to get what she wants

Answer 1

The correct answer is option B.   The most logical inference from this indirect characterization is that Millicent is beginning to question her decision to join the sorority.   The author wants to give a message that an introvert person must try and associate with the mainstream society by work.   They need join any evening club in order to understand human feelings.

Answer 2

B: Millicent is beginning to question her decision to join the sorority.
