Answer:
The characters learn to appreciate what they have.
Explanation:
Both stories have characters that wished they had different lives, but when they tried them out, they ended up not liking the other character's life and wanted their normal routine and life back.
I want to say either diaries or fashion magazines. Diaries are much more story like and could be a little lathered up for lack of a better word. However I would go with fashion magazines, which talk about whatever's popular at the time, giving you a quick general outlook on the time period.
Answer:
C. that the sliver of paper came from a dollar bill.
Explanation:
<em>Object Lessons</em> by Ellery Queen is a short story about a detective work that the author did for a school teacher when she lost "seven one-dollar bills" in her own classroom. The story deals with juvenile crimes committed by three young boys and their teacher's refusal to let them be given straight to the authorities without a second chance.
From the given excerpt, we can know that Ellery had discovered <em>"needle-thin sliver of paper about an inch long, a sort of paper shaving"</em>. He then realized that it must have been from the original piece of item that the culprit used to make a cut out on the fake paper so that the size will be the exact same size with the replaced dollar bill. The inference that Ellery is making at this point is that the sliver of paper came from the dollar bill that was used to make a cut out from the book or paper to replace the stolen money.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
