Answer:

What can be inferred from this excerpt from "Look Homeward, Angel", written by Thomas Wolfe, and which was first published in 1929, is, that despite all the vices, failures and strange behaviors that the neighbors of Oliver Gant saw in him, they tended to him because they could see that there was more to him, an inherent goodness, something that he tried to hide deep inside, that was good, and which made him deserving to receive at least a bit of human compassion. This can be explained when we read certain portions of the excerpt, specifically when it says: "And always they handled him with tender care, feeling something strange and proud and glorious lost in that drunken ruin of Babel." This piece shows that the neighbors were able to glimpse something more, something beyond, what Oliver showed by being always aggressive, and drunk.

Naddik [55]

Answer:

Mrs. Alice Fairfax is a Housekeeper who is in charge of Keeping Thorton Hall in tip-top shape.  She is to see that everyone thing, from groceries, to laundry to guests and tea time run as they ought.  Jane is surprised, for she believed Mrs. Fairfax to be the Owner of the Estate.  However, Mr. Thorton is soon revealed to be the Owner.

Because Mrs. Fairfax is the Housekeeper, English society has always had levels of Hierarchy between the Nobles, the Servants, and the Lay person.  Keeping her distance is her job, so that she will not become too familiar with John and Leah.

Which evaluation of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman makes an accurate conclusion about Wollstonecraft’s beliefs and correct
arlik [135]
In my opinion, the correct answer is A. <span>Wollstonecraft writes, “Such deeply rooted prejudices have clouded reason.” This supports the idea that she believes people must overcome existing prejudices to reason correctly. Wollstonecraft never accuses men of being collectively malicious toward women. She always accentuates reason as the main criterium for her theses - precisely because men have historically claimed reason as their main feature, while reducing women to emotional beings.</span>
