Explanation:
Mesmer began to believe that he could transfer some of his personal surplus of magnetic fluid into inanimate objects by touching them. He would magnetize patients' clothes and beds so they could receive the healing fluid every hour of the day.
Also Ben Franklin didn't believe in it.
The correct answer is B. I did some of the problems in my head, wrote the last answer, and stopped writing when the bell rang.
Explanation
Sentence # 12 "I did some of the problems in my head, the last answer I wrote, and when the bell rang I stopping writing" needs to be revised because it does not have a parallel structure "did", "wrote" and "stopping". To review this sentence to create a parallel structure it is necessary to change the last verb "stopping" to "stopped" to maintain the parallel structure which establishes one verbal tense. Moreover, the best tense is simple past because the author was talking about an past event. According to the above, the correct answer is B.
Answer:
Maycomb doesn't quite get Mr. Raymond. He's always drinking from a paper bag; he sits with the African-Americans; and Jem tells Scout and Dill that he's had several children with an African-American woman—even though he's from an old, rich family. (On the other hand, maybe being from an old, rich family allows him to live how he likes without worrying about what other people think.)
Later, Scout and Dill find out that Mr. Raymond does care about what other people think, but not in the way they expected. His paper bag turns out to be hiding not whisky but Coke, and his constant drunkenness is a put-on. There's a reason: "When I come to town, […] if I weave a little and drink out of this sack, folks can say Dolphus Raymond's in the clutches of whiskey—that's why he won't change his ways. He can't help himself, that's why he lives the way he does" (20.15).
Like Calpurnia speaking one language at home with the Finches and another at the African-American church, Mr. Raymond's double life shows Scout the compromises people have to make in order to live in communities where they don't quite fit in.
