I think it’s (B) Jonathan understands that he can live without things, but he cannot live without his family My reason:Option (A) it doesn’t say anything about civil peace so we can remove that. Option (C) can be removed because although we can assume he is happy the war is over we can also assume that he is happier to have a place to live since in the sections is states “This newest miracle was his little house in Ogui Overside” Option (D) can be removed because in the piece of text is says “He had come out of the war with five inestimable blessings-his head, his wife Maria’s head and the heads of three out of their four children” so that shows that his entire family did not make it out but is also never said anything about his expecting his family to be safe and uninjured

Prof. Vaughn Howell · Answer

"Jonathan understands that he can live without things, but he cannot live without his family" would have to be the answer, but he's not really saying he couldn't live without his family, but rather their safety is much more valuable to him than the state of his objects.

Prof. Vaughn Howell · Answer

Jonathan understands that he can live without things, but he cannot live without his family.In the excerpt, Johnathan's family is described as "five inestimable blessings". It then goes on to say "as a bonus he has had his old bicycle". When comparing these two possessions, the bicycle surviving is described as a miracle but can't be "compared to the safety of five humans heads." These details show that he values his family above everything else. The other options are wrong because he does not talk about the war in this excerpt at all. We also don't see any indication that he expected his entire family to come out of the war uninjured. In fact, he seems grateful that they were all safe.

Prof. Vaughn Howell · Answer

The answer is B. Jonathan understands that he can live with things but he cannot live with out his family.

Prof. Vaughn Howell · Answer

The correct answer is B. Jonathan understands that he can live without things, but he cannot live without his family.Explanation:In the text provided the narrator describes the way in which the character called Jonathan goes back home after the war has finished and he recognizes he feels lucky for having all the members of his family including himself alive and also, he finds his old bicycle has also survived the war. But this object does not compare to his family and because of this the narrator uses expressions such as "a miracle too but naturally not to be compared to the safety of five human heads" and "must be accounted also totally inferior to the five heads in the family" that show the most important is the well being of the family and not the bicycle. On the other hand, a claim is a statement that expresses a position someone has towards some topic or issue; additionally, this claim needs to be supported by evidence that shows what is being claim is valid and logical, considering this, if the information of the text could be used to support a claim the most suitable claim will be "Jonathan understands that he can live without things, but he cannot live without his family" because this claim is connected to the main idea of the text and therefore the text can be used to support this statement as Jonathan behavior portrays the importance of family over things.
