Answer :

B. He provides a twist to the tragic tale his niece tells their guest.

Vera, Mrs Sappleton's niece, fabricates an untrue tale on learning that Mr Framton does not know any member of the Sappleton family personally and is only carrying a letter of introduction to her aunt. In her tale, the present day falls on the tragic third anniversary of the day when the Sappleton men ventured out into the jungle for a hunt never to return back. She further tells Mr Framton that her aunt believes that all three of them will return through the open window one day.

Vera describes that Mr Sappleton also carried his white waterproof coat over his arm. As dusk approaches, and Mr Framton sees three figures approaching  the open window, one of them carrying a white coat over his arm. He grows quite certain that he has seen the ghost of Mr Sappleton.

Mr Sappleton's role in the story is to add the touch of truthfulness to Vera's story. He adds a twist to Vera's tragic tale by being one of the members of the ghostly hunting party.

Help this is due tomorrow and I have so much to do
Temka [501]

The town was nearly empty because everyone was watching the championship on TV.

The best way to combine these sentences is to use the conjunction "because".

Last night after the washer broke and flooded the basement, it took us an hour to clean up.

Adding the word after creates a dependent clause which then must be connected to the independent clause to create on sentence.

A little white dog, which belonged to the neighbors, was sitting on the front door.

Changing the second sentence into an adjectival clause allows the two sentences to be combined.

Rosie wanted to go to the lake with us, but she got sick and couldn't go.

Adding a coordinating conjunction (but), allows for both of these sentences to be joined together as a compound sentence.

Istanbul, the biggest city in Turkey, used to be called Constantinople.

By changing the first sentence into an appositive phrase, it allows for the sentences to be easily combined.
