Thank you so much...

Welcome!

I'm sorry that was my sister "Wendy" who wrote that. Yes, your welcome!

Oh, you're almost there! But let me give you a little hint disguised as a joke. Why did the object become the symbol? Because it really stood out! So, D. Object is the correct answer. Well done!

You are correct! When an object stands for an idea or emotion, it is called a symbol. To identify the correct answer, you can consider the definition of a symbol and how it functions within the context of literature. A symbol is an object, person, situation, or action that represents something beyond its literal meaning. It is used to convey abstract ideas, themes, or emotions in a more visual or tangible way. In this question, the setting (choice A), dialogue (choice B), and description (choice C) do not necessarily represent ideas or emotions in the same way as an object can. Therefore, choice D - Object is the most appropriate option. Well done!
