If you were writing that the theme of "A Piece of String"
was "the folly of pretense,"
which passage would give the
best support?
A. In the public square of Goderville there
was a crowd, a throng of human beings
and animals...
B. All that smacked of the stable, the dairy
and the dirt heap, hay and sweat...
C. His innocence to him, in a confused
way, was impossible to prove, as his
sharpness was known.

C. His innocence to him, in a confused  way, was impossible to prove, as his  sharpness was known.  

Explanation:

A. is not the correct answer. This line only says who was on the square and paints the scene better.

B. is not the correct answer. This line talks about the smell and is a description of the atmosphere in the story.

C. is the correct answer. In this sentence, we can see how silly it is for the character mentioned to pretend to be confused and clueless about the happenings since he is known for having a sharp wit. Therefore it supports the central theme.
