Question

How does Vola respond when Peter tells her that he can actually feel what Pax feels?

A. She says not to tell anybody, because it sounds crazy.
B. She says that he can do it because he raised Pax from a kit.
C. She says that he is experiencing "two but not two."
D. She says that such a thing is not possible, so he must be imagining it.

Answer 1

The question seems to refer to the book 'Pax' by Sara Pennypacker, but the provided context is incorrect. Vola's response isn't available from the excerpts given, as they pertain to different literary works. Normally, a deep empathetic connection is acknowledged as significant and profound.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks about Vola's reaction when Peter tells her that he can feel what Pax feels. Unfortunately, there's a mix-up in the context provided. The excerpts included are from 'Riders of the Purple Sage' by Zane Grey and a separate play, neither of which contain characters named Peter or Vola or a character named Pax. Therefore, it seems the question is referring to a different book, likely 'Pax' by Sara Pennypacker.

If the student is referring to 'Pax' by Sara Pennypacker, Vola's response would be rooted in her character's understanding and empathy developed through the narrative. We, unfortunately, cannot provide a specific quote from the book without the correct context or text. However, typically in literature, when a character expresses a deep empathetic connection, such as feeling what another living being feels, it is often met with acknowledgment of the profound nature of such a connection.

Answer 2

The provided passage does not offer any context to accurately determine Vola's response in Sara Pennypacker's 'Pax'. The passage deals with complex emotional interactions, similar to the bonds explored in 'Pax'.

Step-by-step explanation:

The passage provided suggests a complex emotional scenario rather than a context directly related to Sara Pennypacker's novel Pax, in which Vola's response to Peter could be found. As such, it's not possible to provide an accurate answer to the question about Vola's reaction to Peter's statement regarding feeling what Pax feels. Nonetheless, the themes of connection and emotional understanding highlighted in these excerpts echo the bonds between characters such as Peter and Pax in Pennypacker's work.
