Question 2 Part B Which excerpts from the story best support the answer in Part A? Select the two correct answers. "He had tried things her way, but that had only lasted a couple years; after a while, she could tell that he was miserable, and she gave him her permission to do what he loved." "He gave his job two weeks’ notice and was back on the sea right away." "She couldn’t grasp why he didn’t get the same satisfaction from life behind a desk..."

"His wife, Marla, didn’t understand his obsession with the water, why he spent months of the year navigating a boat full of crab fishermen to isolated spots of the ocean hundreds of miles away from shore."

"She couldn’t grasp why he didn’t get the same satisfaction from life behind a desk..."

We can arrive at this answer because:

Marla's husband's job requires him to spend a lot of time away from home.

She doesn't like it because she misses him and believes it would be better if he found another job that would allow him to have a family life.

He asks her husband to answer her claims, which he does, but he is very unhappy, as he enjoys life at sea a lot.

Marla doesn't understand the reasons for this, but she sees him unhappy and that's why she asks him to go back to doing what he loves.

With that, we can understand that Marla is a very understanding person, who doesn't agree, but understands her husband's love for the sea.
