Choose the best answer: \"Why can\'t Lennie remember where they\'re going, but remembers \'the rabbits,\' thinks he lost his work card and bus ticket, and little remembers his Aunt Clara? Yet, likes to stroke mice, and can remember what George has warned and ordered them?\"
~Of Mice and Men(1937)
A.) There is no textual evidence to know why, but to know his persona; but that George has him repeat what he warns and orders of him, and when Lennie has broken the Wife\'s neck.
B.) George has told the Boss, Lennie\'s not bright since he got horse-kicked.
C.) No need to know why, nor infer anything, that\'s just Lennie\'s persona and exposition!
Answer: A.) There is no textual evidence to know why, but to know his persona; but that George has him repeat what he warns and orders of him, and when Lennie has broken the Wife\'s neck.
Why? That may just be Lennie\'s persona, but we must be curious and press for why, even if there\'s no evidence! George has made him repeat(Steinbeck 4), and what George has told the Boss is a lie(Steinbeck 13).
