Answer 1

**Question #2:*** **Central Idea:** The best answer is **C, the emptiness and loss of identity**. While the passage likely touches on the nature of slavery and the struggle for freedom, the focus seems to be on the *internal* struggle of the narrator grappling with his grandfather's dying words and their impact on his sense of self. This aligns with the idea of "emptiness" and questioning one's identity.* **Development of the theme of resistance:** The best answer is **B, the narrator's use of words such as "odd" and "trouble."** These words suggest discomfort and a sense of going against the expected, which aligns with the idea of resistance being difficult. The other options describe reactions to the resistance or the narrator's overall position, but not the difficulty of the resistance itself.**Question #3:**The best answer is **A, The time period helps clarify the narrator's uncertainty of his place in the world.** The fact that *Invisible Man* is set in the 20th century, after slavery but during a time of significant racial prejudice and discrimination, directly contributes to the narrator's struggle to define himself within a society that renders him "invisible." The other options are less accurate: B is too narrow, C is overly optimistic, and while D has some truth, it's A that most directly addresses the *influence* of the setting on the *theme* of identity.
