Which two sentences in these excerpts from Kate Chopin’s “The Locket” reflect the theme of holding on to love despite time and distance.
The letter had made Edmond heart sick and home sick. He stretched himself on his back and looked straight up at the blinking stars. But he was not thinking of them nor of anything but a certain spring day when the bees were humming in the clematis; when a girl was saying goodbye to him. He could see her as she unclasped from her neck the locket which she fastened about his own. It was an old fashioned golden locket bearing miniatures of her father and mother with their names and the date of their marriage. It was her most precious earthly possession.

The area is growing rapidly; this year twice as many homes will be built there as last year. To illustrate that fact, the developer draws a pictogram (a symbol representing an object or concept by illustration), as shown in Fig. The house on the left represents the number of homes built last year. Because the number of homes that will be built this year is double the number built last year, the developer makes the house on the right twice as tall and twice as wide as the house on the left. However, this improper scaling gives the visual impression that four times as many homes will be built this year as last. Thus the developer’s brochure may mislead the unwary investor.
