This question asks about the central theme or moral lesson taught in the passage about Adaeze. The story describes how Adaeze found an abandoned, crying child, called the police to help, visited the child regularly, brought clothing and food, and eventually adopted and raised the child, who grew up to become a doctor in their community.
The theme running through the entire narrative is Obi ebere na inye aka (mercy/compassion and helping). Adaeze showed compassion (obi ebere) when she did not ignore the crying child but stopped to help. She continued to show kindness by visiting, providing material support, and ultimately adopting the child. The story concludes by teaching that one act of kindness done unexpectedly can lead to great outcomes in the future.
The other options do not capture the story's central message: "Ima mba" (beauty) is not discussed. "Ujo na egwu" (fear and terror) does not apply since the story is about compassion, not fear. "Oru ugbo" (farming) is entirely unrelated to the events described.
