Question

SORRY DON'T KNOW WAN'T THE PASSAGE IS. :( 1. Read these sentences from the story. These things might be theirs no longer. Those shafts and pools of light, the tree, the graceful iron, might soon be viewed possessively by different eyes. How do these details support the idea that the family wants to keep their home?

Answer 1

The words that are used to describe the home are very positive, whereas the new occupants are described negatively. The word possessive tells you that the family is jealous of the new occupants.
