Albo Read the excerpt from Holes.
In the excerpt, how does the author provide details to
suggest that Stanley's mother often chooses to focus
on the positive side of a situation?
"Not every Stanley Yelnats has been a failure,"
Stanley's mother often pointed out, whenever Stanley
or his father became so discouraged that they actually
started to believe in the curse. The first Stanley Yelnats,
Stanley's great-grandfather, had made a fortune in the
stock market. "He couldn't have been too unlucky."
O He describes what Stanley's mother often says.
O He describes what Stanley's mother often feels,
O He describes how Stanley's mother often behaves.
O He describes how others often react to Stanley's
mother
At such times she neglected to mention the bad luck
that befell the first Stanley Yelnats. He lost his entire
fortune when he was moving from New York to
California. His stagecoach was robbed by the outlaw
Kissin' Kate Barlow.
