Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read this excerpt from "The World on Turtle's Back."

The conflict between the twins continued, and for some reason, the grandmother favored the left-handed twin. The right handed twin became angry and resentful. He was the truthful twin who always did the right thing. The left handed twin was deceitful and did everything backward. You could never trust him.

The twins represented the two ways of the world which are in all people. The Indians did not call these good and evil. They called them the straight mind and the crooked mind, the righteous man and the devious man, the right and the left.

The main purpose of this excerpt is to

a. demonstrate that right handed people are good and left handed people are bad.  b. explain why some people do the right thing and others do not.  c. provide the reason why the grandmother favored the left handed twin.  d. clarify what the Iroquois considered the two different sides of human nature.

d. clarify what the Iroquois considered the two different sides of human nature.

Explanation:

The text shows that the Iroquois believed that the twins represented human nature, showing that humanity was not completely good and perfect, as it had a tortuous and lying side, living with the good and wise side. It was important that humanity knew how to balance these two natures and let each one overlap at the right times and that they will always promote progress. In this case, we can consider that the letter D is the correct option to represent the main objective of the text.

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
