Answer :
The lines 27-44 from the short story "Night Calls" by Lisa Fugard describe the narrator's feelings about her father's response to her new talent.
Marlene had recently discovered her talent for imitating bird and animal calls. Due to this special gift, she had gained popularity and respect from everyone at her boarding school.
When Marlene relates this to her father and offers to mimic the sounds of birds and animals for him, he shakes his head slightly and replies "I've got the real thing right outside my window." Marlene seems to be hurt and slightly upset by his response. However, this is not new for her as she has never received any response or reaction from her father. She is pretty much used to this sort of behavior from him.

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.
