Answer:

The physical appearance of the landlady impacts the story in the way that no one can imagine her as a killer because her physical appearance is nice in some way.

Explanation:

The short story of the landlady written by Roald Dahl, is a story about a young man called Billy. He travelled from London to Bath and there he meet a middle aged woman. Then, he starts talking to the landlady.

The author describes the landlady as an old woman with a warming smile. She also has blue eyes:

"She was about forty-five or fifty years old, and the moment she saw him she gave him a warm welcoming smile."

"She had a round pink face and very gentle blue eyes."

“She seemed terribly nice. She looked exactly like the mother of one's best school-friend welcoming her into the house to stay for the Christmas holidays”

"He noticed that she had small, white, quickly moving hands and red finger-nail."

The physical appearance of the landlady impacts the story in the way that no one can imagine her as a killer because her physical appearance is nice in some way.

Fix the sentence by following the apostrophe rule. A. The books story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not. / B. T

diamong [38]

The sentence that follows the correct apostrophe rule is option C. The book's story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not. The correct placement of the apostrophe should be on the word "book's" because it shows ownership, which means "the story of the book". The word "its" should not have an apostrophe because "it's" is the shorter term for "it is".
