Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Safety.

Step-by-step explanation:

In “Zlateh the Goat”, by Isaac Bashevis Singer, there is a passage where the main character of the story luckily finds a haystack where she and Aaron can refugee from the snowstorm that was facing the road they were into their journey. By surprise, there was food in the haystack, but Aaron does not only fed from it, he also drunk some milk from the goat. All of this made the bond between the characters stronger even getting to the point where Aaron did not want to continue with the trip. After 3 days, both of them return to their village, something that amazed the child's relatives who believed they were dead due to the recent weather conditions. So, thanks to the haystack the characters could remain safe from the storm.
