Read the following excerpt from Leslie Marmon Silko’s story "The Man to Send Rain Clouds." They turned off the highway onto the sandy pueblo road. Not long after they passed the store and post office they saw Father Paul's car coming toward them. When he recognized their faces he slowed his car and waved for them to stop. The young priest rolled down the car window.

"Did you find old Teofilo?" he asked loudly.

Leon stopped the truck. "Good morning, Father. We were just out to the sheep camp. Everything is O. K. now."

"Thank God for that. Teofilo is a very old man. You really shouldn't allow him to stay at the sheep camp alone."

"No, he won't do that any more now."

What does this dialogue reveal about the priest’s standing within the community?
He is a trusted leader of the tribe.
He is considered to be an outsider.
He is a spiritual guide to the people.
He is disliked by most of the people.

He is considered to be an outsider.

Explanation:

Leslie Silko's short story "The Man to Send Rain Clouds" is about an old man's death and how his children were stuck between following their traditional burial practices and also being involved with the new Christian religion. The story deals with religion, tradition, creativity, community, etc.

In the given excerpt from the story, Leon's behavior/ reaction to Father Paul's inquiry about their old father Teofilo shows their refusal to let the Christian priest know anything. The truth was, they had found Teofilo dead and had taken his body in the truck, but Leon's insistence that "Everything is O.K." shows their reluctance to inform the Father about anything.

Thus, the correct answer is that Father Paul is considered to be an outsider, especially by the very traditional Leon and his beliefs.
