Answer:
B “‘I won’t,’ said his friend doggedly. ‘I threw it on the fire. If you keep it, don’t blame me for what happens. Pitch it on the fire again, like a sensible man.’” ( Paragraph 42)
Explanation:
The question above is related to the story entitled "The Monkey's Paws." It is a supernatural story about<em> "three wishes,"</em> which can also be classified as a <em>horror story. </em>
Letter B supports the answer to PART A because it shows how that the soldier is warning Mr. White about the talisman. He said that it is best to throw it into the fire because it was causing<u> a lot of mischief</u>. However, Mr. White insisted that he'd take it. <u>The soldier then warned him not to blame him if something bad happens.</u> This shows how <em>Mr. White ignores the experience of the soldier </em>who already told him the <u>consequences</u> that may occur once the talisman is used.
So, this explains the answer.

Answer:
1. Dion noticed that the campsite location was obscure (remote). - synonym clue
2. Pia couldn't wait to visit the menagerie—the place where the animals were kept. - definition clue
3. Unlike her last dog, who didn't know the meaning of loyalty, Violet's new dog is a staunch friend. - antonym clue
Explanation:
In sentence 1, we are literally given the synonym of the word in parentheses. The author guesses the word "obscure" might be unknown to some readers and decides to offer another word that carries the same meaning as it - a synonym - to help clarify. That is why the word "remote" is added right after "obscure".
In sentence 2, the author chose to define or explain the word "menagerie", almost like a dictionary would. He/she adds a dash after the word to then include the definition. We now know that a menagerie is the place where animals were kept.
Finally, in sentence 3, we can figure out the meaning of "staunch" by comparing it to the word "loyalty". Two dogs are being compared. One does not understand loyalty. The other one, however, is staunch. We can safely assume the latter is loyal, faithful, because of such a comparison. What the author did here was use words that have opposite meanings - antonyms - to reveal the meaning of the unknown word.
