Answer:
Among the options given on the question the correct answer is option C.
can move out of proper location , causing leakage.
Explanation: A gasket is a mechanical seal or lock which is used for filling the space between two or more mating surfaces to prevent the leakage or to prevent the mixing of the components under the compression.
They are commonly produced by cutting sheet materials. They allow for almost perfect mating surfaces on machine parts to fill the irregularities.
However the surface of a gasket is very important to determine. Because the surface can not be too smooth or too rough. If the surface is too smooth than it can be slippery and will not have proper grip. As a result it can move out from the proper location.
As a result there will be leakage which hamper the machine parts.
On the other hand if the surface is too rough it will be hard for the gasket to conform to surface imperfection and also may have leakage.

Answer:
The question is from "The Cactus" by O. Henry. Trysdale is the main character in the story. There are two other characters, a woman Trysdale proposes to and the woman's brother who is also Trysdale's friend.
Explanation:
The Cactus by O. Henry is a story about how ego, hubris and dishonesty get in the way of one's happiness. The story is set in Trysdale’s drawing room after the marriage ceremony of this girl was over and the scent of the huge bunches of flowers piled in the church was still haunting him.
Trysdale, a young man, noble, wealthy and cultured, realizes that his girl friend is excessively devoted to him and sort of worships him. <em>‘She had always insisted on placing him upon a pedestal, and he had accepted her homage with royal dignity’. </em>
Ultimately the day comes when Trysdale proposes to her. The girl is absolutely delighted at the proposal but shyly and modestly replies that she'll think about it. Trysdale eagerly waits for her answer. The next day, he receives a cactus with a tag in Spanish. Without trying to understand what it meant, he perceives this as rejection.
Now, as Trysdale returns from his ex-girlfriend's wedding, he is filled with bitterness. Trysdale was deeply distressed and looked unhappy. His friend, the bride's brother, coincidentally finds the tag on the cactus and tells him that the word on the tag was a common Spanish word that translated to the phrase, <em>"Come and take me."</em>
Trysdale now realizes his fault at ignoring the tag. He remembers lying to his girlfriend that he was fluent in Spanish whereas all his Spanish was mugged up from hackneyed Spanish phrases which he often learnt from the dictionaries and used them only to show off. Trysdale realizes that his dishonesty about the Spanish and his ego in not understanding the tag had cost him his happiness.
Answer:
In terms of how someone's language can construe the look of a situation we can talk about how avoidant language and downplaying when talking about and issue can change how it looks to an outsider. Hyperbolic statements and making a situation seem more dire is also skewing reality.
