Answer:

A. "bet on any thing".

Explanation:

Mark Twain's short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" is a retelling of a story that the narrator had heard from a bartender named Simon Wheeler. This story is about a frog who was believed to be the biggest jumper of all frogs.

The narrator had gone to the place to look or inquire about a friend's friend Leonidas W. Smiley. But once there, he couldn't get hold of the actual person, upon which the bartender offered to tell him a story about a guy named Jim Smiley. Simon also added that Jim "would bet on anything—the dangdest feller".

What caused the fall of the Zhou dynasty
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The primary cause for the collapse of the Zhou dynasty was the implementation of the fengjian system, where the royal family would strengthen their authority over the other states by installing relatives as lords in the regions.

The Zhou system was unstable, having to deal with chronic warfare between the various substrates and outsiders. Over the centuries, larger substates conquered smaller ones. The worst warfare occurred during the Era of the Warring States, beginning around 500 C.E. Local dukes ignored the Zhou king and fought among themselves for supremacy. The last of the Zhou states were eventually conquered by the Qin in 221 C.E.
