How does the resolution of lizabeth’s conflict in “marigolds” develop the theme? lizabeth realizes that miss lottie is not a witch but a broken person trying to make a little beauty in her world. the late-night outing with her brother brings lizabeth a sense of companionship. lizabeth is able to express her deep anger by ripping up all of miss lottie’s marigolds. lizabeth is able to replace the lost marigolds and bring peace to miss lottie’s life.

The best answer is indeed letter A) Lizabeth realizes that Miss Lottie is not a witch but a broken person trying to make a little beauty in her world.

Explanation:

In the short story "Marigolds", Lizabeth is a 14-year-old girl who lives in a poor neighborhood. The poorest of the houses belongs to Miss Lottie. Even though it is the ugliest house, it has a most beautiful garden full of Marigolds tended by Miss Lottie. Lizabeth and the other kids in the neighborhood would often throw rocks into the garden and tease Miss Lottie for being - in their childish belief - a witch.

At the end of the story, Lizabeth's destroying Miss Lottie's garden is a means to express her anger. Still, that in itself would not solve the conflict. Lizabeth's anger came from the realization that she and her family were poor and hopeless. She had heard her own father cry because he hadn't been able to get a job for a long time - the story takes place during the Great Depression. After ripping out all the flowers, Lizabeth realizes why she hated the garden so much: because it brought beauty and hope to a place that had none of those things. The garden represented something she was not able to understand; at least, not until that moment. After her hideous act, Lizabeth becomes a woman. Her way to see the world - and Miss Lottie - changes. Her childish conceptions are now gone.

        its hard for some people to get along and that’s the case for douglass and canot. most of the time when people do not agree with each other its because they have different presperctives, and that is the case here.

captain canot was never a slave so but he was a slaver and a slave ship captain and just like the slave master's he tought it was it was totally normal, he used captain conot is a cruel man who enjoys whipping slaves but never   got whipped he saw it has a destiny for the slave to be a slave and the slaver to be a slaver   but douglass has suffered whoppings cut   even for no reason sometimes. douglass believed that slavery was not natural to black people, they need to study and learn how to read and write. he knew they have rights.

it was really not the captain’s fault he was just brainwashed by the system and when your brainwashed by the system its hard not to be brainwashed. but the reason douglass wants this is because he has suffered he knows how it feels and will do anything to stop that.
