Read this excerpt from Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. The next morning I told Mom that I couldn’t go to school, because I was too sick. It was the first lie that I had to tell. She put her hand on my forehead and said, “You do feel a bit hot.” I said, “I took my temperature and it’s one hundred point seven degrees.” That was the second lie. She turned around and asked me to zip up the back of her dress which she could have done herself, but she knew that I loved to do it. What assumption does the narrator make in this excerpt? that his mom will worry about him that his mom will trust him that his mom knows he is lying that his mom needs his help

Respuesta :

That his mom will trust him

Answer:

He believed that his mom would trust him

Explanation:

Whoever tells a lie, hopes that people will believe. This is no different than the storyteller, who tells lies hoping his mother will believe, especially since it is the first time he lies, so it will be easier for his mother to believe.
