In the fictional world of Utopialand, there is no government. All people
are considered equal, and no one can own land or possessions
privately. While this scenario has eliminated many problems from
society, it has created new ones. Since there is no law, there is no
punishment for crimes. People inflict any consequences they choose
on those who have offended them. This causes people to live in
constant fear of victimization and retaliation.
In part of the story, a main character finds that the crops he has been growing
for his family have been eaten by others, leaving his family with nothing.
Which statement best explains how this plot event develops the theme that
people need rules in order to live together in peace?
A. It shows that rules are often unfair and don't help all people
equally.
B. It shows that lawlessness actually hurts people in real ways.
C. It shows that hungry people are desperate and should not be
judged

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. It shows that lawlessness actually hurts people in real ways.

Explanation:

If there is no food for the main character's family, then how will they eat? They will starve to death and if they steal from someone, since there is no law, they could be murdered as there is no consequence. Either way, laws may restrict many things, but it can help give people what they truly deserve.

Hope this helped! :)
