Vilka [71]1 year ago

The phrase blinked their eyes and looked twice helps the readers to understand the inference that the female doctors were not that common at those times.

<h3>What is an inference?</h3>

The complete question is: When she came forward at Commencement, in a delightful little Greenaway gown of white muslin, peppered over with tiny dots, with the very smile of childhood in her wide blue eyes, and her curly hair clustering round her brows—the learned doctors, imported to adorn the Commencement exercises, blinked their eyes and looked twice, and hesitated, even then, to accept her as an established fact. Which detail most helps the reader infer that female doctors were unusual at this time?

An inference is a conclusion and the deducing statement that is reached on the basis of the reasoning and the evidence. The data and the information stated in the sentence infer the details about a specific topic.

From the passage, the use of the phrase blinking their eyes and looking twice is the detail that shows that the female doctors were not that common to be seen at those times. The people were a little hesitant to accept the fact that the doctor was a female.

Which field of study in the late nineteenth century was discussed in Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and
Ymorist [56]
If you know what Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is about, then the answer is quite simple - the correct option is D. psychopathology.
Psychopathology is the study of mental disorders. Psycho means soul, pathos means suffering, and logos means study, so it is literally the study of why your soul suffers. Dr. Jekyll has a certain mental disorder which enables his evil counterpart/other personality, Mr. Hyde to come out, similarly to Bruce Banner and Hulk.
