In “The Devil and Tom Walker” Irving is saying that the values in American society lie in the wrong place chosing wealth and financial prosperity over the well-being of others.
Irving sees America becoming greedy and warns the reader not to follow Tom Walkers ´s path that led him to exchange his soul to the devil blinded by his ambition for money.
This statement reflects the popular themes of individualism in the romantic era. The American romantics believed that a man's choices decided his fate. Washington Irving shows how Tom chooses the wrong direction that led him astray from the true values of humanity.
Out of all given option, "Evan wanted nothing more than to cook for his friends and family", the sentence contains a particle.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
A particle refers the word which possesses grammatical functionality but would not match the main parts (i.e. adverb, verb and noun). The particles will not vary. For example, “To” an infinitive with verb as “to fly” is an example for particle, even it acts as a preposition, like "I am going to America next week."
Many words described as particles, e.g. Sayings such as "but" and "and", and pronunciations such as "oh" and "wow". Particles often occur when teaching phrasal verbs that can be grouped by particle for educational purposes, such as Off, On, and more. According to the above detail, concluding that sentence in option C would be the right answer.
