1. A - A group of shoppers in an uproar about a popular item that was advertised but not available is an example of a commotion.

1. The correct answer is: A group of shoppers in an uproar about a popular item that was advertised but not available. To determine the correct answer, you would need to understand the definition of "commotion," which means a noisy disturbance or upheaval. In this case, a group of shoppers being in an uproar fits the definition.

2. The correct answer is: In Grandpa's eyes, Martin has become a man. To predict this, you would need to analyze the passage provided. Grandpa mentions that it will be time to give Martin the medicine bag, which suggests a significant event or milestone. Grandpa's statement indicates that Martin has reached a point of maturity or achievement.

3. The correct answer is: Martin goes to the reservation to replace the sacred sage. The theme of the story is not explicitly stated in this question, but to identify the best illustration of the theme, you would need to understand the theme of the story. Based on the information provided, the theme likely involves Martin's connection to his Native American heritage and the passing down of traditions. Martin going to the reservation to replace the sacred sage aligns with this theme.

4. The correct answers are: The title, and illustrations and captions. To predict what a story will be about, these elements can provide valuable clues. The title often gives a brief overview or hint about the story's central topic. Illustrations and captions can provide visual context or "teasers" about the content of the story. The author's name and the tone of the first paragraph may not necessarily provide direct predictions about what the story will be about.
