Which excerpts from Things Fall Apart provide evidence to support Okonkwo’s contradictory feelings about showing affection when the priestess takes Ezinma to the shrine of the Oracle? Select all that apply.

A) "Okonkwo and his wife followed at a respectful distance."
B) "Okonkwo was also feeling tired, and sleepy, for although nobody else knew it, he had not slept at all last night. He had felt anxious but did not show it."
C) "It was only on his fourth trip that he had found Ekwefi, and by then he had become gravely worried."
D) "But the Hills and the Caves were silent as death."

Respuesta :

I believe the correct answers are B and C.
B shows us that Okonwo didn't sleep at all because he was scared of what may happen the following day. Similarly, C shows us that he was worried about letting Ezinma go to the shrine, although he tried to hide his feelings of anxiety and uneasiness.
