Respuesta :

"Jerry feels pressure to prove himself to the locals in the foreign place so that he might fit in" (B)

Answer:

  • Jerry feels pressure to prove himself to the locals in the foreign place so that he might fit in.

Explanation:

Jerry's shoreline get-away turns into the site of an extreme individual test. Jerry must leave his mom at the shore, the shore Jerry sees as "a spot for little youngsters, a spot where his mom may lie safe in the sun." He leaves the security of this nursery-like shoreline and adventures to the slippery "wild and rough" cove and the submerged passage.

Jerry is moving toward adulthood as the sole male of the family. All through the story, the trades among him and his mom elevate the strain of the story, yet Jerry, with the exception of the one day on the sheltered shoreline, autonomously controls the greater part of the activity. Like most conventional soul changing experiences into adulthood, Jerry must endeavor into the wild, overcoming the components and perils of the world without anyone else's input.
