PLEASE NEED ASAP!!!

Read the passage below from “Marigolds” and answer the question.

I had indeed lost my mind, for all the smoldering emotions of that summer swelled in me and burst—the great need for my mother who was never there, the hopelessness of our poverty and degradation, the bewilderment of being neither child nor woman and yet both at once, the fear unleashed by my father’s tears. And these feelings combined in one great impulse toward destruction.

Based on the passage above, which of the following themes are evident in the story?

loss of innocence
good overcomes evil
value of family
love and sacrifice

From an early age, a child retains his innocence and lacks an understanding of the value of compassion. As a child becomes older and more mature, their innocence eventually fades away, and they become more sympathetic.

Children who are innocent frequently solely consider themselves and their needs. As kids get older, exposure to other individuals in the world might help them develop empathy and broaden their perspective. The central idea of Eugenia Collier's novel Marigolds is that young people lose their innocence as they develop empathy for others.

Thus, the correct option is A.
