Question

Read the excerpt from "Life on the Sea."

His wife Marla didn't understand his obsession with
the water, why he spent months of the year
navigating a boat full of crab fishermen to isolated
spots of the ocean hundreds of miles away from
shore.
How does the word obsession show Marla's feelings
about the captain's job?
It shows that Marla fears that the captain
gets attached to things too easily.
it shows that marla has the same desire to on the water that husband does
it reveals that marla believes that the captains job consumes him
it reveals that marla worries that the captains has a sickness

Answer 1

the third one

Step-by-step explanation:

The fourth one and the second one don't match. Marla obviously doesn't agree with her husband so she wouldn't have the same desire as him. And, they say nothing about a sickness. This leaves you with the first and 3rd one. The excerpt doesn't necessarily mean that the captain gets attached to things too easily so that is how I used process of elimination to get to the third one.

Hope this helps!!!!
