Answer:
Hawthorne portrayed Hester as a passionate, courageous, and independent woman which is contradictory to the time when the text was written. She was a sinner who held her sin of adultery brave and becomes a victim when she gives up on the moral injustices of the puritan society.
The flaws in her character other than adultery would be her bold, rebellious, and fearful attitude acceptance of her crime, deciding to bring up Pearl herself, not removing the Scarlett letter even after her punishment, etc. These were a problem in the puritan community as they directly challenge and subvert the stereotypes and authority of the Puritan world.
Answer: c. insane
The narrator of this excerpt complains that other people characterize him as insane (<em>"why will you say that I am mad?"</em>) and he wants to deny the credibility of this claim. He says that he might be nervous, but he is not mad. In fact, his senses are sharper than ever, as he can hear everything, including what goes on in Heaven and Hell. This fact, intended to convince us of his sanity, proves that he is indeed insane.

The sentence that suggests the narrator does not closely monitor Bar.tleby's performance after hiring him is given below.
<h3>What is the evidence that the lawyer didn't do thorough background checks on Bar.tleby?</h3>
The textual evidence is as follows;
"The Lawyer asks him: "What earthly right have you to stay here? Do you pay any rent? Do you pay any taxes? Or is this property yours?"
Bar.tleby makes no response, and the Lawyer becomes resigned to the idea that Bar.tleby will simply haunt his office, doing nothing.
The Lawyer believes he is doing a good, Christian thing by allowing Bar.tleby to continue existing in his office."
<h3>Who is Bar.tleby?</h3>
From the text "Bar.tleby, the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street", Bar.tleby is an old scrivener at The Lawyer's office, Turkey. He is cheerful and productive until midday, when he gets dru.nk, grumpy, and basically worth.less.
