Read the paragraph. When Allison saw the advertisement for a free basketball clinic at the community center, she knew she would

attend. Tryouts for her school team were still a month away, and her jump shot needed work if she wanted to be selected this year. Hours of work with her brother had improved her technique, and her layups were consistent. She could hold her own in neighborhood games of three-on-three, but her outside shots rarely made it through the hoop. Allison hoped that the instruction at the clinic would address this weakness. She marked her calendar for the event and headed out to the driveway. What can readers conclude about Allison? Check all that apply. She wants to play on her school’s basketball team. She has better basketball skills than her brother. She is willing to practice to improve her skills. She has experience playing basketball with her friends. She hopes to learn the rules of basketball at the clinic

AveGali [126]

Answer:

When Victor talks about <em>"this deadly weight yet hanging round my neck and bowing me to the ground"</em> , he means he has a great responsibility on which the future of his family depends, but which makes him miserable.

Explanation:

Victor clearly feels he has an important decision to make. This decision is totally <u>against his feelings</u>.  

Yet, he is scared to break the promise of the marriage with Elizabeth, since that could be crucial for the future of his family.

The words he is using affects the tone at this point of the story, letting the reader know how <u>disconsolate</u> he is.  

His idea of this marriage it's totally <u>devastating</u>.

He declares : <em>“To me the idea of an immediate union with my Elizabeth was one of horror and dismay”</em>. The tone with which he expresses the meaning of his marriage is inconsolable, he clearly doesn’t want to do it.

But also, he says : <em>“I was bound by a solemn promise which I had not yet fulfilled and dared not break, or if I did, what manifold miseries might not impend over me and my devoted family”</em> , and here, it can be seen how committed he is with his family. He is attached to a promise that will make him unhappy for the rest of his life, just to save his family future.
