Respuesta :

The statement 'he becomes a man' best captures Jerry's accomplishment in "Through the Tunnel".

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Jerry, the character of a young English boy depicted by Doris Lessing in his short story 'Through the Tunnel' is faced by a number of ups and downs during the course of his life as a young lad.

After facing the first few major challenges thrown at him by life and after thriving out of those challenges, he feels like and tells himself that he has now become a man.

Answer:

Option A and C are incorrect

He does not become a full man, and he was never dependent on his mother

Explanation:

I think Jerry takes an important step toward maturity after swimming through the tunnel and learning from his experience.

However, it could be that he swam through a tunnel if the question is asking what physical goal he accomplished.

I would go with B; he takes an important step toward maturity.
