Question
- they also took the mattress down from the spare bed in liesels room, replacing it with drop sheets - an excellent trade.
- downstairs, hans and max placed the mattress beneath the steps and built a wall of drop sheets at the side. the sheets were high enough to cover the whole triangular entrance, and if nothing else, they were easily moved if max was in dire need of extra air.
- papa apologized. \its quite pathetic. i realize that.\
- \better than nothing,\ max assured him. \better than i deserve - thank you.\
- with some well - positioned paint cans, hans actually conceded that it did simply look like a collection of junk gathered sloppily in the corner, out of the way. the one problem was that a person needed only to shift a few cans and remove a drop sheet or two to smell out the jew.
- \lets just hope it good enough,\ he said.
a student infers that max and liesel become friends while max is hiding in the basement.
which evidence from the text best supports this inference?
choose 1 answer:
a \they also took the mattress down from the spare bed in liesels room, replacing it with drop sheets - an excellent trade.\ (paragraph 4)
b \they felt true. they were more real than the letters he wrote to his family and to his friend walter kugler, knowing very well that he could never send them.\ (paragraph 21)
c \he resolved that when the book was finished, hed give it to liesel, when she was old enough, and hopefully, when all this nonsense was over.\ (paragraph 21)
d \max was sitting with his head and shoulder blades against the wall. she could barely make out the sound of his breath coasting in and out of him.\ (paragraph 23)
- Option A just shows a trade of mattress and drop - sheets, no indication of friendship.
- Option B is about Max's letters, not related to his friendship with Liesel.
- Option C shows Max's intention to give a book to Liesel when the time is right, which implies a connection (friendship) as he is thinking about her in a positive way.
- Option D only describes Max's physical position and Liesel hearing his breath, no sign of friendship.
