Based on the seventh and eighth paragraphs, what does Callie think about the men's meeting?
She's relieved that the men will take care of things.
She's skeptical the men will find a solution.
She's hopeful that the men will solve the locust problem.

She's skeptical the men will find a solution.

Explanation:

The short story "The Locusts" revolves around the locust invasion that damaged and disrupted crop production in the small town where Callie and her family lived. The 1874 locust invasion had left everyone cropless, and reduced the people to a state of hunger.

In paragraphs 7 and 8 of the short story, Callie 'accepts' that the locust issue is for the menfolk to deal with as her Pa had said. But she seemed skeptical about it. This is evident in the line "[S]he suppressed a scowl." Callie knows she can't do much about it nor can the men, after all, every one of them is hungry.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

should you be the one doing this journal entry? it says "your special talent or skill". are you gonna lie 'bout your talent and make us fake a talent for you?

also this is a really easy journal entry, you can just think of a skill your good at and write did you work hard to become good at this skill (ex: drawing, writing, math, playing music, etc.) or does it come naturally (like a cool trick that you can do with your body). you can do all of that in 150 words. just try and think of a talent and even if your bad at this talent just say your working hard to become good at it.
