Answer:

One theme in Flannery O'Connor's "Everything that Rises Must Converge" is:

A. looks can be deceiving.

Explanation:

In the short story "Everything that Rises Must Converge," several themes can be found. Among them, one of the main themes is that looks can be deceiving. The following passage from the story is evidence of that:

"She was one of the few members of the Y reducing class who arrived in hat and gloves and who had a son who had been to college."

The main characters are J.ulian and his mother, and none of them is what they seem to be. J.ulian, for instance, has convinced himself that he is modern, open-minded, and thoughtful; he has also told himself that his mother is his complete opposite - a narrow-minded, prejudiced person. He is angry at her for the importance she places on appearances.

However, as the story unfolds, we realize J.ulian is also prejudiced and narrow-minded when it comes to his mother. And he too cares about what others think of him. His mother, on the other hand, has her flaws and limitations, but is revealed to have a good heart. Their looks and their behaviors are deceiving, not showing their true selves.
