Which detail from "The Night the Bed Fell" best supports the idea that many of the narrator's relatives have odd personalities?

"(On these occasions he was usually gone six or seven days and returned growling and out of temper, with the news that the Federal Union was run by a passel of blockheads and that the Army of the Potomac didn’t have a chance.)"

"My mother opposed the notion strongly because, she said, the old wooden bed up there was unsafe: it was wobbly and the heavy headboard would crash down on father’s head in case the bed fell, and kill him."

"Briggs Beall and myself were in a room adjoining this one. My brother Roy was in a room across the hall from ours. Our bull terrier, Rex, slept in the hall."

"Always a deep sleeper, slow to arouse (I had lied to Briggs), I was at first unconscious of what had happened when the iron cot rolled me onto the floor and toppled over on me."

Answer:

The answer is "(On these occasions he was usually gone six or seven days and returned growling and out of temper, with the news that the Federal Union was run by a passel of blockheads and that the Army of the Potomac didn’t have a chance.)"

If you don't want to read the whole thing its A.

Explanation:

I know you gave us the answer already but i need the points

On these occasions, he was gone for six or seven days and returned growling and enraged, with the news that the Federal Union was run by a gang of thugs and that the Army of the Potomac had no chance. Thus, option A is correct.

The story of "The Night The Bed Fell" begins with James Thurber referencing the eccentric people in his family, such as his aunt who tosses shoes through the corridors of something.

The residence each evening in a futile effort to frighten away armed robbers, his crazy siblings Beall, who believes he will suffocate to death in his snooze, and others.

According to Kinney, it was Herman, not James, which jumped from his cot and started the night's episode non-catastrophe. Not any of his aunts, but a border threw a sneaker through a roman shade accented, damaging the window, believing there was a robber inside.

Therefore, option A is the correct option.

Read this excerpt from a classic story.
Alice was beginning to get tired of sitting by her sister on the bank and having nothing
to do. Once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no
pictures or conversations. "What is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or
conversations?"
Suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes scampered close by her
That was nothing so very remarkable, nor did Alice think it strange to hear the Rabbit
say to itself, "Oh dear! Oh dear! / shall be late." But when the Rabbit actually took a watch
out of its waistcoat pocket looked at it, and then hurried on Alice leaped to her feet. It
flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat
pocket or watch. Burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it. Fortunately, she
was just in time to see the rabbit pop down a large rabbit hole under the hedge.

Read this excerpt from "A Horseman in the Sky" by Ambrose Bierce. Which type of point of view does the narrative portray?
An officer of the Federal force, who in a spirit of adventure or in quest of knowledge had left the hidden bivouac in the valley, and with aimless feet had made his way
to the lower edge of a small open space near the foot of the cliff, was considering what he had to gain by pushing his exploration further. At a distance of a
quarter-mile before him, but apparently at a stone's throw, rose from its fringe of pines the gigantic face of rock, towering to so great a height above him that it made
him giddy to look up to where its edge cut a sharp, rugged line against the sky. It presented a clean, vertical profile against a background of blue sky to a point half the
way down, and of distant hills, hardly less blue, thence to the tops of the trees at its base. Lifting his eyes to the dizzy altitude of its summit the officer saw an
astonishing sight-a man on horseback riding down into the valley through the air!

No one knows exactly when the first people came to the Guadalupe Mountains in far west Texas, but archaeological evidence dates back over 10,000 years ago. The earliest inhabitants were hunter-gatherers who followed available game and ripening vegetation. They lived in and among the many caves and alcoves common throughout the range. Scattered evidence of their existence, including projectile points, baskets, pottery, and rock art has been found throughout the mountain range.
Since then, many different groups have moved in and out of the area, including the Spanish who arrived by the mid 1500s. There is little evidence of any attempts on their part to penetrate the Guadalupes. No large-scale settlements have been located. Their influence was significant, though, because they introduced horses into the area. For the bands of Apaches who roamed freely over much of the southwest, horses quickly became an asset to their nomadic lifestyle. The Mescalero Apaches followed game, much as the earlier peoples had done, and they also harvested the agave (or mescal) for food and fiber. Mescalero is the name given to them by the Spanish. It means mescal-maker. Agave roasting pits and other remains of Mescalero campsites are common in the mountains.
Prior to the mid 1800's, the Guadalupes remained an unchallenged sanctuary for the Mescalero Apaches. But newly established transportation routes, and the end of the Civil War, encouraged droves of pioneers, homesteaders, miners, and numerous others to head west. In the mid 1800s, explorers were commissioned to look for possible emigrant routes to the west. The proposed transcontinental railroad expected to follow one of these routes. Although these surveying expeditions would never lead to a railroad through Guadalupe Pass, they did provide the first extensive studies of the Guadalupe region.
In 1858, a horse-changing station was constructed near Pine Springs for the Butterfield Overland Mail. To protect their investments, the stage line and settlers in the area demanded protection from the military. Several cavalry troops were ordered in and out of the area to halt Indian raids and secure settlements along the stage route. In the winter of 1869, troops lead by Lt. H.B. Cushing penetrated the Guadalupes and destroyed two primary Apache camps. These aggressive actions were devastating to the Mescaleros who were already facing food shortages within their increasingly limited land base. They were eventually driven out of the Guadalupes. By the late 1800's, nearly all of the surviving Mescalero Apaches in the United States were living on reservations.
Permanent settlements in the Guadalupes were not common though, even after the final displacement of the Mescaleros. The Butterfield stage route through the Guadalupes was abandoned in less than a year for a more favorable course along a string of army forts to the south. Most settlers found the range (and its limited water sources) too rugged and inhospitable. The first permanent ranch house was constructed in 1876 by the Rader brothers. Now called Frijole Ranch, it served as residence for several families through the years. And, as the only major building complex in the region (for several decades), it served as a community center and regional post office from 1916-1942. Today, the Frijole Ranch House has been restored and operates as a cultural museum.
