Question

the guest by yevheniya yaroshynska translated by roma franko 1 she told him how many eggs the hens had laid, that meat had gone up in price again, that the vegetables were terrible, and that the wash was giving her no end of trouble—it had been hanging on the clothesline for three days now without drying. 2 he heard her out with his customary consideration. this was the report he had to listen to every day when he came home from school and sat down to have dinner with his wife. after they finished discussing every item in detail, she finally asked him how things had gone for him in school that day. oh, he had more than his share of problems as well! the young mykhaylovych lad was sorely trying his patience. he was very mischievous and disruptive, but could not be dealt with strictly because he was the principal’s son. 5 “just imagine this, if you can! he drew a caricature of me on the board today and then wrote under it: ‘the teacher, wearing a coat altered by his wife.’ i think it would be better if you didn’t try your hand at tailoring—your alterations are making me the butt of the youngsters’ jokes.” 6 while saying this, he glanced over at this coat. its overly long coattails and foreshortened sleeves truly did not inspire any feelings of awe or betray an elevated aesthetic sense. but his words got him into deep trouble! they were cause for real indignation! things even went so far that his wife accused him of reproaching her for her hard work. how does the event in paragraph 5 create tension between a it reveals that the students would like malvina to be of viadyk. b it proves that viadyk needs malvina’s helpful advice at student behavior. c it shows that the students are criticizing viadyk’s attire malvina’s craftsmanship. d it indicates that viadyk does not know how to handle st and malvina do not have any children.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: The event in paragraph 5 (the caricature and the comment about the coat altered by his wife) doesn't show students wanting Malvina to be something related to Viadek in this context.
• Option B: The event is about a student's prank and criticism of the coat, not Viadek needing Malvina's advice on student behavior.
• Option C: The student drew a caricature and wrote a comment about the coat altered by Malvina, showing they are criticizing Viadek's attire (the coat altered by Malvina) and her craftsmanship. This matches the event in paragraph 5.
• Option D: The event has nothing to do with Viadek not knowing how to handle students or Malvina having no children.

Answer:

C. It shows that the students are criticizing Viadek's attire and Malvina's craftsmanship.
