Respuesta :

This question is incomplete. I have found the complete question online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:

. . . but Michael was just laughing at him.

What would be the BEST theme for this passage?

1. Everything always works out in the end.

2. Always treat people as kindly as you would like to be treated.

3. You should always carry extra money.

4. Be nice to everyone, they could end up being a good friend.

Answer:

The best theme for the passage is:

4. Be nice to everyone, they could end up being a good friend.

Explanation:

We may be tempted to choose theme number 2 but, after thoroughly reading the passage, we can tell number 4 is the best option. The lesson or moral of the story is not simply about being kind for its own sake. There is interest involved. According to the end of the story, you may need that person later, just like Caleb ended up needing Michael. Thus, it pays off to be kind to them just in case.
