Part B- 1

Step-by-step explanation:

'Zlateh the Goat' is a short story written by Isaac Bashevis Singer. The story is about a goat named Zlateh and a boy named Aaron. The story takes place during the time of Hanukkah, a Jewish festival.

Through the story, thhe inference that can be made about Aaraon is that he is a strong boy for his age. Aaron is a twelve-year-old boy. The narrator of the story tells that Aaron made a way through heavy snowy path to a haystack which was covered with snow. This action of Aaron, suggests that he is a strong boy for his age. Making a way through a heavy snow path is a difficult task and requires a lot of strength, thus inferring about Aaron's strength. Therefore, for Part A of the question, the correct answer is 4th option.

The evidence that supports this claim from the text, for Part B question is in option 1st. The first option reveals how Aaron made the way for homself and the goat towards haystack covered with snow, to use it as a shelter.

Therefore, the correct answers for Part A is 4th option and Part B is option 1st.
