The characters learned to respect each other enough to discuss why the boy tried to grab the purse.

Explanation:

In the short story "Thank You, Ma'am" by Langston Hughes, a young, hungry boy was about to rob a woman of her purse. But as circumstances would turn out, he was unsuccessful in that attempt but then learned a valuable lesson from the very woman he had targeted.

One conflict that was resolved in the resolution was that both of the characters, Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones and Roger, learned to respect one another. By her act of inviting him to her home and preparing food for him, Roger also came to respect and trust the woman. It was this faith that helped them discuss the events that led to Roger's failed attempt of robbing Mrs. Jones, and Roger left the house with a sense of appreciation and a change of heart.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
