How does the constant rain affect the children of Venus in the story?

• The constant rain ruins their dreams.
• The children don't have an imagination anymore.
• The constant rain has made the children angry, forcing them to lock Margot in the closet.
• The children of Venus are obsessed with the sun because they haven't seen it, but doubt it will come.

Why does the author write that it has been raining for "thousands upon thousands of days" and that a"a thousand forests had been crushed under the rain"?

• To show how much the children want to see the sun.
• To contrast Margot's and Williams feeling about the sun.
• To emphasize what seven years of rain must seem like.
• To express what the landscape of Venus really looks like.

The children move slowly and hesitate to  see Margot at the end of the story because-

• they can't bear to see her pale face again.
• they know they will get in trouble now.
• they are worried that Margot may not be where they left her.
• they know they have done a cruel thing to her.

The setting of the story-

• could have been anywhere.
• contributes to the story's main conflict
• resolves the problem in the story.
• has nothing to do with the story's problem.

You can infer that the children feel ashamed after they come back inside because they

• have blue faces from the light
• close the door on the falling rain
• look down at their feet and hands
• are startled when they hear the thunder
