A. Phoenix Jackson’s encounter with the white man.
B. The sickness of Phoenix Jackson’s grandson.
C. Phoenix Jackson’s journey into town.
D. The callous behavior of the people Phoenix Jackson meets.

Respuesta :

I think the answer is B because the grandson is sick which may mean that he is worn out and he can't do much about it

Answer: C. Phoenix Jackson’s journey into town.

Explanation:

In the short story "A Worn Path" by Eudora Welty, an elderly African American woman called Phoenix Jackson begins a well-known journey on a path in a rural region to obtain medicine for her grandson.

Phoenix's journey is a metaphor for Phoenix's whole life, as her life is long, hard, and a challenge that she has overcome in order to keep going.
