Call me Ishmael. Some years ago - never mind how long precisely - having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular

to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation. Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off - then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can. This is my substitute for pistol and ball. With a philosophical flourish Cato throws himself upon his sword; I quietly take to the ship. There is nothing surprising in this. If they but knew it, almost all men in their degree, some time or other, cherish very nearly the same feelings towards the ocean with me.
What purpose is served in the paragraph by the sentence which begins, "Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth..."?
A) It gives us useful advice for life's difficult moments.
B) It gives us a significant glimpse into the narrator's mindset.
C) It lets us know that we can trust the narrator.
D) It suggests that we cannot trust the narrator.

Excerpt from The First Tears — Based on an Inuit Folktale
Delvig [45]
It seems like the answer is B. throughout the story, we can see that Amak is very passionate about getting food for his family to eat. A seems unlikely as even though the end of the story shows references to him crying, it doesn’t contribute to the main idea of the story. C and D seem unlikely for the same reason.

Looking at Gilbert's feelings on time, the
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story entitled "Another Place, Another Time," written by<em> Cory Doctorow. </em>It focuses on the protagonist named Gilbert and his curiousity about time. When it comes to Gilbert's feelings about time, he believes that <em>time is another dimension </em>and <u>people are capable of going back or going forward</u><em> (in a similar fashion to that of time trave</em>l). So, this makes the statement above as "false," because it didn't focus on time as something we have no control of, but<em> something we can control.</em>

This explains the answer.
