What is the young man thinking of doing at the end of the passage?

The answer is: C) committing murder

Raskolnikov, the main character in "Crime and Punishment", by Fiodor Dostoievski, is planning to murder his landlady, whom he considers to be abject. His hesitation shows how serious the nature of his plan is. Furthermore, he mentions the English fairy tale "Jack the Giant Killer" in paragraph 5.

How does the young man feel about his financial state now?

The answer is: B) He is indifferent to it.

Although the young man was very poor, it no longer bothered him, as we can see in the following passage: "He was crushed by poverty, but the anxieties of his position had of late ceased to weigh upon him." In fact, he was quite absorbed in himself, and no practical matters could affect him.

Why does the young man frequently see his landlady?

The answer is: D) He passes her kitchen whenever he leaves.

He lived in the garret, so they didn't live on the same floor. Besides, we learn where exactly the landlady lived and why letter D is correct in the following passage: "The landlady who provided him with garret, dinners, and attendance, lived on the floor below, and every time he went out he was obliged to pass her kitchen, the door of which invariably stood open."

What is paragraph 3 MOSTLY about?

The answer is: C) the young man's relationship with his landlady

There is a bit of all that is mentioned in the other alternatives, but what paragraph 3 is MOSTLY about is the young man's relationship with his landlady, since all we learn about the character has to do with how and why he fiercely avoids her. Paragraph 3 is linked to paragraph 2, and it starts by outlining the reasons for Raskolnikov's being afraid of meeting his landlady, a fact we learn in paragraph 2. Therefore, the whole paragraph 3 is a succesful attempt at explaining the whys and hows of the main character's behavior towards the nasty woman.

To determine what paragraph 3 is mostly about, we need to carefully analyze the information provided in the paragraph. Let's break down each option and see which one aligns with the content of the paragraph.

Option A states that paragraph 3 is about making colored labels for your emotions. However, there is no mention of emotions or labels in the paragraph, so we can rule out this option.

Option B suggests that the paragraph is about arranging thoughts so they float properly. While the concept of thoughts is briefly mentioned in the paragraph, there is no direct discussion or explanation of arranging thoughts to float properly. Therefore, we can eliminate this option as well.

Option C claims that the paragraph is about a technique for watching your thoughts. Upon reading the paragraph, we can see that it explains a technique wherein you imagine your thoughts as leaves floating down a river. This technique helps you observe your thoughts without actively engaging with them. Consequently, option C aligns with the content of paragraph 3, making it a strong possibility.

Option D talks about a discussion of colored leaves on rivers, which is not mentioned in the paragraph. Therefore, we can rule out this option.

Examining the options, we find that option C, "a technique for watching your thoughts," is the most accurate description of what paragraph 3 is primarily about.

To determine the main topic of paragraph 3, we need to carefully analyze its content. Let's go through each option and see which one best describes the paragraph.

Option A suggests that the paragraph is mostly about how the young man feels about being poor. However, there is no mention of poverty or the young man's feelings about it in paragraph 3. Thus, option A can be eliminated.

Option B suggests that the paragraph is mostly about the young man's deteriorating mental state. While this may be a possibility, without knowing the specific content of paragraph 3, we cannot confirm this as the main topic. So, let's keep this option for now and explore the others.

Option C suggests that the paragraph is mostly about the young man's relationship with his landlady. Again, without knowing the content of paragraph 3, we cannot confirm this as the main topic. Let's move on to the last option.

Option D suggests that the paragraph is mostly about how the young man feels about being with others. This option seems more plausible as it acknowledges the presence of others and focuses on the young man's feelings towards them. However, we still cannot confirm this as the main topic without examining paragraph 3.

To make a definitive choice, we need to review paragraph 3 to identify its main theme. Unfortunately, as you haven't provided the specific text of paragraph 3, I cannot give you a precise answer. However, based on the given options, my best guess would be option D – how the young man feels about being with others. But again, I encourage you to review the paragraph yourself for a more accurate understanding.
