Answer:

The correct answer is "They are trusting".

Explanation:

The short story "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County"  (also known as "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County") by Mark Twain is narrated as a retelling what a bartender heard about the gambler Jim Smiley.  By talking about what a bartender heard, the narrator could be easily labeled as a trusting person. Jim Smiley is a trusting person as well, which could be noted in the story by how is he fooled by a stranger and had to pay a $40 wager for it.

What inspires warriors to make a such personal sacrifices?
bija089 [108]

It deppends on the type of warrior but I will try to explain using the Samurai. I think with them the value of the moral is of high importance and determined their lives:

The samurai considered death as something they had to be always prepared for and thus, whenever it was needed, they would sacrifice their life "for a greater good" they knew it was something it might happen anyway. The idea of trascendence is something we have to be also aware of; They thought that what you do in this life will affect how you start the next one (reincarnation).

Let's also talk about a "negative" way of sacrifice; The seppuku, where they took their own life by cutting their stomach with a sword when they considered they didn't follow properly one of the eight most important values as we can see in any of the samurai codes or books like Hagakure or the Bushido code. these eight codes are: Justice, courage, mercy, politeness, honesty, honor, loyalty and self-control.

Not only life they would sacrifice but also money, food, social life because these things might be a distraction or a cause of desire whic leads to suffering.

seraphim [82]

When Paul decide to talk to Cassie about Mitchell he explain to us the reason in this passage, he described her as “not only beautiful, she was tough, smart, and just a bit cocky” we can infer that she could give him a good advice on how he needs to handle the situation, he also says that she was “pretty much like a mother hen when it came to him” and he she would “take his part” so she will be supportive to him. The answer is He knows that she will support him and give him good advice.
