Which piece of dialogue from the story best illustrates that Christian rites are not important to
Leon or his community?
A. "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."
B. The priest dragged a chair out of the kitchen and offered it to Leon.
"No thank you, Father. I only came to ask you if you would bring your holy water to the
graveyard."
c. "Why didn't you tell me he was dead? I could have brought the Last Rites anyway."
Leon smiled. "It wasn't necessary, Father."
D. Leon put on his green cap and pulled the flaps down over his ears. "It's getting late, Father.
I've got to go."
When Leon opened the door Father Paul stood up and said, "Wait."

"everyday

use" was written by alice walker. this is a story about two sisters, dee

and maggie wanting to have the handmade quilt. maggie wants to use the thing

for its purpose, while dee appreciates it for being “her heritage”.   the quilt represents family heritage. it was

believed that only dedication and years of hard work can represent a  quilt. 

mama decided to give

the quilts to her less fortunate daughter, maggie because she believed that dee

could not hold the true meaning of their family heritage and   that she would not use the quilts for their

purpose. however, dee believed that maggie can’t appreciate the quilts just as

how she sees them, and she thought that the quilt will be put to “everyday use”

by maggie and within 5 years or so, the quilt will turn into a rag. in the story, dee strongly believed that maggie do not deserve the quilts.
