Answer:

Be communist leader

Or be rich

The option that gives the best job of explaining and not just stating a theme is: “The theme of the story is how the three sons wouldn't listen to their father when he told them they should work hard to earn the money they wanted.” Hence, Option B is correct.

The central abstract notion that unites a literary work's presentation of its subject matter is its theme. A statement or overarching concept that comes from the way a literary work approaches its subject matter is called a theme.

The theme is distinct from the topic at hand. Concrete details on a work's subject can be provided, typically through actions. While the subject of a literary work deals with the concrete actions that bring that idea to us, the theme of the work deals with an abstract idea or concept.

The above-described definition of theme is essentially the thematic concept of a work. It is the intangible idea or concept that a literary piece engages with.

Therefore, Option B is correct.

Select the correct text in the passage
Which detail provides an example that supports the author's thesis?
Sculpting a Message
People who know artists say that artists look at the world differently. This saying was true for Louise Nevelson, one of the world's most
celebrated sculptural artists. Until Louise Nevelson's time, sculptures were made primarily of carved stone or poured metal. Louise Nevelson,
however, created completely different types of sculptures. Hers were assembled from ordinary objects.
Artists of the first half of the twentieth century were inventive in their subject matter and technique. It was an exciting time in the art world
Even among innovators, Nevelson distinguished herself. Instead of cutting stone or pouring metal, she built her art. She deliberately sought
discarded items (she called them "found materials") such as pieces of wood, tin cans, and pieces of items out of trash cans. She grouped them in
varying combinations inside boxes and then stacked the boxes on top of one another. Known as wall sculptures, these structures were usually
painted a single color, most often black
Sky Cathedral one of Nevelson's most well-known sculptures, consists of 38 boxes of varying sizes. For the viewer, Nevelson's sculpture
creates a feeling very different from the origins of the materials. Viewers experience a sense of awe and mystery when they see her artwork
Writers have speculated about the meaning of her work, often seeing the boxes as filled with symbolism. For example, the disarray of objects
inside the boxes is said to represent her past, while the pieces of debris symbolize memories of unknown people or bits of life.
