A teenager trying to find his job but can’t find a good paying one because of his record
We can cite it as a situation in which Mark proved to be resilient at the very beginning of the narrative, when he enters a new world and is enslaved by the residents of that region. Instead of giving up his luck and regretting his condition, he uses this difficult time of slavery, to learn the language spoken by the local residents, so at least he would understand what his "masters" spoke, which could leave slavery more bearable. In addition, Mark uses his free time to plan an escape and he even manages to escape, but returns to warn the townspeople that she will be attacked.
Another moment when he shows that he is resilient is when he is being chased by an army, inside a forest in a world that he does not know very well. Even in a disadvantaged situation, he manages to turn things around, fight for his survival and manage to escape, always with great determination and confidence.

Answer:
C. He is excited and nervous, but doesn't want Natalya to know it.
Explanation:
In this farce - <em>The Proposal</em> by Anton Chekhov we have Lomov and Natalya as main characters, besides her father. Lomov is a kind of man who has a problem with coming to the point when talking thus making a lot of digresses. Since this is a sensitive matter for him, he expresses anxiety and nervousness first while talking to Chubukov, Natalya`s father, then while talking to Natalya. So he just goes around expending the talking by, as seen in this excerpt, guessing her reaction to the still unknown matter of marital proposal. Then he comments the weather while trying to show himself as relaxed, though he is not even close to that.
The correct answer is 4: The speaker implores God to use violence to break him so that he can be made new.
In this Holy Poem 14, “Batter my Heart”, by John Donne, the poet is addressing God directly and he is implying that the usual way God enters into everybody’s life is not enough for the poet. The poet does not need gentle manners: to knock, to shine, to mend.
On the other hand, in order to let God get into his life, he needs a tough hand: to force, to brake, to blow and burn. This is likely because the poet might consider his soul and heart are too corrupt for such gentle ways.
The paradox, or apparently contradictory idea, here is to attach God such a violent behavior.
