Answer:
If you count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder, and then divide by 5, you'll get the distance in miles to the lightning: 5 seconds = 1 mile, 15 seconds = 3 miles, 0 seconds = very close. Keep in mind that you should be in a safe place while counting.

Hi! :)
How does Wilde use this conversation to poke fun at the class divisions of his day?
Algernon holds his servant to an unreasonable standard because he expects the lower classes to be good examples for the upper class!

He was stabbed in the eye with a wooden stake and was drunk - odysseus said to him his name was nobody so polyphemus shouted 'Nobody is killing me!'
or effectively "nobody is killing me by force or treachery" like you said
