My dad didn't tell you, but he has ______. That is why I haven't been able to do work. I had to take care of him. There is no need to quarantine or even call my dad. He will say he doesn't have it, but he's just kidding. Remember DO NOT call my dad and ask if he has ______ because he will lie. He can't even walk, so I don't have time to complete assignments. I know you saw him walk yesterday, but he hired an actor so you wouldn't be worried. And no my mom doesn't have _______, but she can't take care of my dad because she has to.....feed the cats everyday. So she doesn't have time to take care of my "sick" dad. My dad will be sick next week also, so don't expect work from me. I hope you understand! Thanks!
Sincerely,

Symbols help readers understand the larger themes of a story. One of the major themes of Joyce's "Araby" is the urge to escape the monotony of daily life. Which symbol in the story contributes most to this theme, and why? A. the bazaar because it represents the inaccessible land of freedom to the narrator B. Mangan's sister because she represents domesticity and routine to the narrator C. the marketplace because it represents the suburban lifestyle to the narrator D. the train ride because it represents freedom and renewal to the narrator
Answer:
A. The bazaar because it represents the inaccessible land of freedom to the narrator.
Explanation:
James Joyce's short story "Araby" revolves around a young boy infatuated with a girl who he promises to bring a gift from a marketplace called "Araby". The urge to win her heart by promising the gift led the young boy to the market, dealing with themes of innocence, real and imaginary, religion, and what is private and public.
The belief that all things are possible, even winning the affection of Mangan's sister led the young boy to leave for the market with good thoughts. But once he reached the market, he was unable to find anything that impresses him. The symbol that represents the theme of the monotony of daily life can be seen in the bazaar itself for it represents an escape from the monotonous life. The bazaar became an enticing escape, which was why the narrator was excited to go to. His expectation was so large, for he believes he'll find new things there, away from the dormant life he experiences everyday.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
Answer:A. The bazaar because it represents the inaccessible land of freedom to the narrator.
