Juana made breakfast for herself and Kino; however, Kino ate before she did. What does this tell us about their family?

They live in a male-dominated society.

Juana can only eat when Kino allows her.

Kino tries the food first to make sure it won't hurt his wife.

Juana is more of a slave to Kino that his wife.

What is the best reason for why Coyotito's sleeping area is hanging from the ceiling rather than in a crib on the floor?

They live in a straw hut, so this keeps four-legged creatures from easily getting to Coyotito.

They couldn't afford a crib, so this arrangement was cheapest

They don't have enough space, so this allows them to have more floor area when the baby is off the floor.

Why does Kino hear songs everywhere he goes: Song of the Family and Song of the Enemy?

Their culture has deep musical roots.

Kino wants to be a professional musician.

Juana enjoys listening to him sing his songs, so he sings often to make her happy.

"The dawn came quickly now, a wash, a glow, a lightness, and then an explosion of fire as the sun arose out of the Gulf ." What does this example of imagery mean?

The bright sun has finally come over the horizon to show it's light directly on Kino.

The sun has exploded, and the world is ending.

The atomic bomb has been dropped to end WWII.

Kino cannot tolerate too much sun, so every sunrise is like an explosion that he must survive.

"Across the brush fence were other brush houses, and the smoke came from them too, and the sound of breakfast, but those were other songs, their pigs were other pigs, their wives were not Juana." How does Kino feel about his wife?

He wishes she was like the other wives.

He wishes she could cook better.

After noticing the scorpion, "...Juana repeated an ancient magic to guard against such evil, and on top of that she muttered a Hail Mary between clenched teeth." What does this mean?

She's trying anything to save Coyotito.

Juana is using her magic to protect the family.

Juana has turned Kino into a scorpion.

After first noticing the scorpion climbing toward the baby, Kino freezes, "He could not move until the scorpion moved, and it felt for the source of the death that was coming to it." Why was he just watching?

He did not want to cause the scorpion to fall on Coyotito.

He is scared of scorpions and did not want to get stung.

He was waiting on Juana to take care of the scorpion.

He was frozen in fear and could do nothing to help.

Why did the neighbors predict that doctor would not come to help Coyotito?

The doctor only treated people who had money.

They were too far away from the doctor to get there in time.

There was no doctor in the area.

The doctor only treated animals, so he could not help.

Which of the following descriptions does not prove that the doctor is ineffective?

"His eyes rested in puffy little hammocks of flesh and his mouth dropped with discontent."

"They knew his clumsy abortions..."

"They had seen his corpses go into the church."

Why does the author say that Kino "...could kill the doctor more easily than he could talk to him..."?

The doctor is of a race that used to beat and starve people of Kino's race.

Kino is jealous of the doctor's wealth.

Kino does not appreciate that the doctor won't make house calls.

Kino's family is starving while the doctor is getting fat on chocolate.
