I would say the correct answer is B ("I am sorry to hear that; but why did not you tell me that before? If I had known as much this morning I certainly would not have called on him. It is very unlucky; but as I have actually paid the visit, we cannot escape the acquaintance now.")
It is both false and ironic because he would certainly have called on him nevertheless, regardless of the fact whether his wife likes Mr. Bingley or not. He didn't really do much about the whole affair, which is ironic because he makes it as if he had.
Hi! :)
A semicolon is most commonly used to link two sentences together in a way that makes sense.
Based on this information, I would say the correct answer is A.
Hope this helps!
B. Casey is upset by the townspeople’s anger.
The townspeople being
angry at Casey never quite subsides throughout the majority of the poem.
In fact, it makes its presence known even toward the end of the poem as
Casey comes up to bat in the ninth inning as is evidenced by “A dismal
groan in chorus came; a scowl was on each face |When Casey walked up,
bat in hand, and slowly took his place.” And, readers can tell he is
upset at this in the lines that ensue: “His bloodshot eyes in fury
gleamed, his teeth were clenched in hate; | He gave his cap a vicious
hook and pounded on the plate.”
