In "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County", by Mark Twain, the incongruity that exists between the narrator and Simon Wheeler is <em>The narrator is brisk and businesslike; Wheeler takes his time.</em>

A friend of the narrator tells him to look for Reverend Leonidas W. Smiley, and to contact Simon Wheeler for that purpose. The introductory paragraphs writen by the narrator go straight to the point. On the contrary, Wheeler uses long descriptive sentences with bad grammar, and full of dialect. Even though he is serious there is an overall humoros effect. " ...if I asked old Wheeler  about him,... he would... bore me nearly to  death with some infernal reminiscence of him as long and tedious as it should be useless to me."

Which source of recruitment is needed to bring new blood in the organisation​
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

External source of recruitment

Explanation:

Internal source of recruitment does not provide new blood as it implies re-hiring, promoting, or transferring persons who are already working or have worked for the company. So, external source of recruitment is needed to bring <em>new blood</em> into the organization. That can be achieved in multiple ways, as the external source suggests people joining the organization through recommendations, then there are employment agencies whose occupation is finding all sorts of candidates. Also, companies can visit schools and colleges in order to find new candidates. Companies can advertise job positions to the wide public, they also can hire candidates who are not so skilled right now, but can learn in the future. So, there are some of the most spread ways of finding new candidates and bringing <em>new blood</em>.
