Question

5 what is the theme of this story?
a people are sometimes better at activities they do not enjoy than the at activities they enjoy.
b girls are similar to their mothers, and boys are similar to their fathers
c sharing a bad experience can bring two people closer together.
d the best way to learn something new is to try it on your own.

Explanation:

To determine the theme, we analyze each option. Option A's idea about enjoying activities vs. skill is not a common story theme. Option B's gender - parent similarity is too narrow and not a typical universal theme. Option C, about sharing a bad experience bringing people closer, is a common and relatable theme in stories (e.g., siblings or friends bonding over a tough event). Option D's "learn alone" goes against common learning narratives (often group/guidance is better). So C fits best as a story theme.

Answer:

C. Sharing a bad experience can bring two people closer together.
