Old age homes, or retirement homes are advisable for many different reasons. First of all, many of the elderly's children are not able to provide the needed care on a 24/7 basis. In the present day society, both the mother and the father have to work to be able to provide for their own children. By placing their elderly loved on into a retirement home, they are able to continue working, while entrusting their loved one with professional nurses and caretakers. These workers are able to keep a constant eye on the elderly, provide them with balanced meals, give them their daily medications, and provide physical therapy should it be needed.
Answer:C. The visitor left his stick behind.
Explanation:
Your question is referring to the excerpt from ''The Hound of the Baskervilles'' by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in which Sherlock is describing his visitor at the beginning of the first chapter.
''Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who was usually very late in the mornings, save upon those not infrequent occasions when he stayed up all night, was seated at the breakfast table. I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before.''
After that, Sherlock picks up the stick and read what is written on it and then he is asking Watson about his opinion on it.
He was considered as the absent-minded because he left something with his name and evidence that is showing that he was there. If he was aware, he would not do that. In that way, Sherlock got all information about him.
