Answer:
Louise Carpenter was gripping a desk, her knuckles white.
Explanation:
The question above is related to the story entitled, "Object Lesson," which was written by<em> Ellery Queen (a pseudonym). </em>
The story centers on the character of Ellery, as he was called by Miss Carpenter to have a speech in class regarding<em> "Notorious Criminals I Have Known." </em>This came about when Miss Carpenter knew that three of his students in class were responsible for a juvenile crime she witnessed. However, on the day of the speech, Miss Carpenter noticed that <u>someone stole her $7 inside her envelop.</u>
As Ellery was searching the different places where the suspect might have placed the $7, "<em>Louise Carpenter was gripping a desk, her knuckles white." </em>This causes uncertainty on the reader because<u> it doesn't give a clear sign whether the money will be found or not</u>.
Louise Carpenter's action shows that she is <em>"anticipating to be let down."</em> This means that she, somehow, figured out that <u>Ellery won't be able to find the suspect and money because they only have a few minutes left</u> <em>(4 and 1/2 minutes, to be exact)</em>.<em> </em>
It's difficult to choose one for me. But I'd choose between <span>authenticity and relevance. Those are the most important for visual storytelling. It will hook public and hold them till the end.</span>
Answer: A.
singular; idiosyncrasy
Explanation: It is not B. because it is not an innumerable talent and there is not a surplus of this talent. It is not C. because it is not insular or an idiom. It is not D. because people are not disconcerted or shocked to the point where they do not know how to act and this talent is not plural. This leaves you with A. singular;idiosyncrasy because it is a talent that not many people have and it is an unusual thing about him.
