In Of Mice and Men, out of the given selections, “They are looking to buy a ranch in California” that best explains where George and Lennie are going.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Lennie aims at buying a ranch where he and George can take care of animals. This happens shortly after the opening part of the story, eventually leading to George talking about how idyllic life would be if that materialises.
Lennie, after hearing that, says that they will “live off the fatta the lan”. He remembers the story so well that he could recite it too. Then, George highlights their bonding and dream that make the difference from others who are all not having their own place.
