A Trees were so rare in that country, and they had to make such a hard fight to grow, that we used to feel anxious about them, and visit them as if they were persons. It must have been the scarcity of detail in that tawny landscape that made detail so precious.
B I used to love to drift along the pale-yellow cornfields, looking for the damp spots one sometimes found at their edges, where the smartweed soon turned a rich copper color and the narrow brown leaves hung curled like cocoons about the swollen joints of the stem.
C Sometimes I rode north to the big prairie-dog town to watch the brown earth-owls fly home in the late afternoon and go down to their nests underground with the dogs. Antonia Shimerda liked to go with me, and we used to wonder a great deal about these birds of subterranean habit.
D During those first months the Shimerdas never went to town. Krajiek encouraged them in the belief that in Black Hawk they would somehow be mysteriously separated from their money. They hated Krajiek, but they clung to him because he was the only human being with whom they could talk or from whom they could get information.
E Antonia loved to help grandmother in the kitchen and to learn about cooking and housekeeping. She would stand beside her, watching her every movement. We were willing to believe that Mrs. Shimerda was a good housewife in her own country, but she managed poorly under new conditions: the conditions were bad enough, certainly!
Evidence C: The narrator mentions observing Antonia Shimerda's fascination with the earth-owls and her curiosity about their underground nests. This shows Antonia's close connection to nature and her willingness to learn about the world around her.
Evidence D: The Shimerdas are described as isolated and dependent on Krajiek for information and communication. This suggests that the Shimerdas are struggling to adapt to their new environment and are vulnerable to manipulation.
Evidence E: Antonia's interest in learning about cooking and housekeeping from grandmother indicates her desire to adapt and integrate into her new surroundings. This shows her resilience and determination to succeed despite the challenges she faces.
