Which of the following is probably true about Roger?

His parents don’t take good care of him

He is homeless and lives on the street

He is really Mrs. Jones’s son

Why couldn't Roger say anything to Mrs. Jones at the end of the story?

He was in shock of her and couldn't believe someone had tried to help him after he tried to steal something.

He was just happy he got $10 and didn't feel the need to say thank you.

He was so scared she was going to call the police.

In "Thank you, Ma'm", how does Mrs. Jones meet Roger?

when he tries to steal her purse

when she tries to break up a street fight between Roger and his friend

What reason does Roger give for his action?

He wants a new pair of blue suede shoes.

He needs lunch money for school.

What do these lines show about Roger? " Ain't you got nobody to tell you to wash your face?" " No'm," said the boy .

He has trouble telling the truth.

What does Mrs. Jones do when the boy struggles to get away?

She jerks him around in front of her, wrestles him with one arm, and drags him up the street.

She shouts very loudly for help, frightening the boy into staying at her side.

She warns him that she will call the police and that they will track him down.

She hits him over the head and knocks him to the ground.

Why does Mrs. Jones make a point of telling Roger about the bad things she did when she was young?

She believes that sharing that part of her past will help Roger to trust her.

She is hoping to join Roger in a life of crime.

She is very lonely and needs someone to talk to.

Feeling that Roger has lied to her, she tells him a lie in return.

What does Mrs. Jones mean when she tells Roger that "shoes come by devilish like that will burn your feet."

If you buy shoes with stolen money, your sense of guilt will make you feel as if the shoes are burning your feet.

People who buy shoes with stolen money will be punished.

If you buy shoes that don't fit, they will hurt so much that it will feel as if your feet are burning.

Which of the following best summarizes the meaning of this passage? The boy wanted to say something other than, Thank you, m'am, to Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones, but he couldn't do so as he turned at the barren stoop and looked back at the large woman in the door.

Roger realized how inadequate a mere thank you was for all Mrs. Jones had done for him.

Roger wanted to say something nasty to Mrs. Jones, but he restrained himself.

Roger did not really want to thank Mrs. Jones because he felt that she forced him to go with her.

Roger had planned to say something, but it completely escaped his mind.

Which of the following best captures the theme of "Thank You, M'am"?

Kindness and goodwill are stronger than fear and mistrust.

Old people are so lonely that they will seek company even from those that try to harm them.

If you're going to steal, don't get caught.

The city streets are full of dangers for young and old alike.

Why does Roger choose to sit on the far side of the room while Mrs. Jones is cooking dinner?

He wants her to see that he is not stealing from her purse.

It gave him an easy way out of her house.

He's hungry and his stomach is growling.

He wants to watch her in case she is calling the police.

What can you infer about Roger at the end of the story?

He will not forget Mrs. Jones and the kindness that she showed towards him.

He will probably not buy shoes, but donate the money to charity instead.

He resents the attitude that Mrs. Jones displayed towards him.

He would pay the ten dollars back to Mrs. Jones.

Thank you, Ma'am
