Read the excerpt from the narrative version of "The Nose."

"How shall I make myself clear to him?" Kovaloff thought. Then with new courage, he continued, "Naturally—besides I am a Major. You must admit I should have to go about without a nose. An old woman may carry on her business without one, but since I am on the look-out for a high position; besides, I know many women in high society. Pardon me; if one regards the matter from the point of view of duty and honor—you will yourself understand—"

"I understand nothing," answered the nose. "I repeat, please explain yourself more clearly."

"Honorable sir," said Kovaloff with dignity. "It seems to me the matter is as clear as possible. You are after all my own nose!"

The nose looked at the Major and wrinkled its forehead. "There you are wrong, respected sir; I am myself. Besides, there can be no close relations between us. To judge by the buttons of your uniform, you must be in quite a different department to mine." So saying, the nose turned away.

PLEASE HELP!!! TIMED!

Me which theme is developed by the changing relationship between the narrator and his daughter in this excerpt ? as she grew older, she spent more of her time with girls. so much time indeed did she spend with them that she came no more, as she used to do, to her father’s room. i was scarcely on speaking terms with her. when mini and her father stop communicating, it develops the theme that children should not speak unless spoken to. as mini becomes more independent, it develops the theme that parents must learn to let go as their children grow up. as mini spends more time with friends, it develops the theme that young people are more influenced by peers than by parents. when mini and her father see each other far less often, it develops the theme that absence makes the heart grow fonder.
