Read these excerpts from chapter 8 of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Excerpt 1: "This is a very strange tale, Pool

e; this is rather a wild tale my man,” said Mr. Utterson, biting his finger. "Suppose it were as you suppose, supposing Dr. Jekyll to have been—well, murdered what could induce the murderer to stay? That won’t hold water; it doesn’t commend itself to reason.” Excerpt 2: "No, sir, that thing in the mask was never Dr. Jekyll—God knows what it was, but it was never Dr. Jekyll; and it is the belief of my heart that there was murder done.” "Poole,” replied the lawyer, "if you say that, it will become my duty to make certain. Much as I desire to spare your master’s feelings, much as I am puzzled by this note which seems to prove him to be still alive, I shall consider it my duty to break in that door.” How does Mr. Utterson develop in these excerpts? He begins to consider illogical possibilities. He begins to forgive Hyde for his wrongdoing. He begins to understand the science of transformation. He begins to hope for Dr. Jekyll’s full recovery.

By putting to one side the absurde possibilities like the laws of transformation of live creatures in case of no death or that if the death ( of Dr. Jekyll) occured as a result of a murder and the murderer would be Mr. Hyde, the murderer could be right beside (the body/ the room with no clue), The lawyer would hold his hopes, avoiding to misjudge having so few clues, trusting most his nose, hoping he could still save the victim

The correct answer is A. He begins to consider illogical possibilities

Explanation:

"Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is a novel written by Robert Louis Stevenson, in this novel John Utterson is trying to understand the strange events that occur to Dr. Jekyll a friend of him who has found a way to change his body and personality and became Mr. Hyde which is an evil and mysterious character. In these excerpts, Dr. Jekyll's servant Poole who has also notice strange events and believes Mr. Hyde has killed Dr. Jekyll looks for the help of Utterson as Mr. Hyde is the room of Dr. Jekyll and after they both entered the room they find the body of Mr. Hyde and a letter of Dr. Jekyll, from this situation Utterson starts reflecting on possible explanations the first one is that Mr. Hyde could not have killed Jekyll because the possible murder did not scape and does not seem to be logical, also, he believes there was no reason for Hyde to kill Jekyll and the letter found from Jekyll shows he is alive, this actions imply Utterson does not understand the situation and starts thinking on non logical theories to try to give an explanation. Thus, in these excerpts, Utterson begins to consider illogical possibilities as the events are too strange and he is trying to understand them.

how do thoreau’s ideas about government, which he discusses in “civil disobedience,” resemble those of americans described in th
asambeis [7]

Awnser: Thoreau begins Civil Disobedience by saying that he agrees with the motto, "That government is best which governs least." Indeed, he says, men will someday be able to have a government that does not govern at all. As it is, government rarely proves useful or efficient. It is often "mistreat and unnatural" so that it no longer represents the will of the people. The Mexican-American War illustrates this phenomenon.

1. In "The Necklace", what things
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Mathilde longed for financial freedom, luxury, beautiful furniture, social standing, delicate meals, exquisite serving utensils, and a life of ease. She felt that she deserved better than what she had. She was especially unhappy with her husband as she felt she should have married into a higher social class. Loisel seems like the simple, happy, good guy in the story, a foil for his perpetually dissatisfied wife. Monsieur Loisel wants to please his wife, who he loves, whereas Madame Loisel is self-absorbed and indifferent to her husband. He has married a beautiful wife, who he sees as a prize, whereas she is frustrated by being married to a man of her own lower middle class status rather than a fabulous aristocrat.
