Read the passage: Maya crouched beside her grandmother in the garden, pulling weeds from the rows of tomato plants. "Patience," her grandmother said, tapping the soil gently. "The fruit comes when it's ready, not when you want it." Maya wanted to yank the green tomatoes off the vine right then, but she forced herself to wait. By August, the vines sagged with ripe red fruit, and Maya understood that some things cannot be rushed. What theme does the passage develop?

Hard work is always rewarded with quick success. Patience allows good things to develop in their own time. Gardening is more fulfilling than any other hobby. Grandparents always know more than their grandchildren.

Correct Answer:

Patience allows good things to develop in their own time.
