This question is about the short story "The Monkey's Paw," by W. W. Jacobs.
Answer and Explanation:
Mr. White and his family are visited by a friend, a sergeant, who has been to India, where he obtained a mummified monkey's paw. According to him, the paw has been enchanted by a fakir and it can grant three wishes to three different people. He says he has already used his, and that another man has also used his wishes, the last wish being for his own death. He warns the Whites that paw is dangerous, and that its purpose is to show we should not interfere with fate.
Mr. White's first wish is for 200 pounds to pay a debt. He does receive the money, but only because he son dies in an accident at the factory where he works. Devastated, Mrs. White demands that her husband wish for their son to return. He eventually concedes and makes the wish. They soon begin to hear someone insistently knocking at their door.
Mr. White is sure it is their son outside. However, he does not want his wife to see his maimed body - their son's body was caught in a machinery at work. Desperate, he grabs the paw and makes a third wish.
What was Mr. White's third wish? How do you know that it came true?
<u>The narrator does not tell us what the wish was, but we can infer it from the context. Once Mr. White makes the wish, the knocking stops, and they open the door to find a deserted street. We can safely assume he wished for his son to go away, probably forever. And we know it came true because the knocking stops quickly afterwards and, even though the couple rushes to the door, there is no one outside. If it were just a a visitor or a passerby, he would have had no time to disappear like that.</u>
Answer:
Using single use plastics etc.
Explanation:
This is mostly a personal a question but some ways everyone contributes it by using single use plastics, not recycling or composting our waste, and excessive water use. All of these things contribute to land pollution and pollution in general. There are things you can do to try and keep yourself from contributing to pollution as much. You can use reusable silverware and other, usually, plastic objects. This is something like using a reusable straw, cup, packaging etc. You can take shorter showers and use less water when watering your lawn or other garden areas. You can also make sure to recycle and compost your waste. All of these things will greatly help with your contribution to pollution.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Try to see the issue from a different perspective
So its easier to understand
I think it isn’t a fair law because teenagers sometimes don’t know what they are doing, and also they should consider their age because they are not adults, they are teens so they are still discovering the world around them, and we are in the 21st century, we are not back into history, so that is why it isn’t a fair law.
Being grown up means a lot of responsibilities that some teens don’t have, and for me that’s putting a lot of pressure on them, also they shouldn’t be treating them like adults because they are kids, who should focus on their education and not that much on life problems.
Hope this helps
