Read the passage. I had only been a detective for a few months when I was hired to investigate a very odd case. Traveling across

town, I soon found myself walking down a dim, dingy street, looking for the law offices of one “L. Creighton, Esq.” Entering the office, a very calm, well-dressed gentleman warmly greeted us. I was surprised to find the office spacious, neat, and clean. Somehow, I had expected to see a cramped, untidy, and dismal space. What did the detective expect to see in the offices of the accountant? a mysterious doctor a large and prosperous office a dangerous warehouse a small, unclean office

The right answer is "a small and unclean office ".

The answer to this question expounds, literally in the text. The excerpt that shows this is:  <em>" I was surprised to find the office spacious, neat, and clean. Somehow, I had expected to see a cramped, untidy, and dismal space."</em>

Basically, the character is surprised to find a clean, spacious and tidy place, because he expected exactly the opposite, that is, a small, dirty and untidy desk.

Read lines 85-86 from the poem “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” and answer the question.
sergiy2304 [10]

The attitude connoted by the word <em>snicker </em>is condescending disrespect.

The word <em>snicker</em> is defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary as "to laugh in a covert or partly suppressed manner."

There is something false and dishonest about a snicker; it gives an impression of sarcasm, contempt, or mockery. It can be interpreted as disrespectful and condescending.

This could correspond to the eternal Footman's (death's) attitude because in this poem, Prufrock is expressing his fear of mortality and his feeling of not being important in the eyes of death.
