So you subtract the fractal amounts from the whole with all of his customer being 1 and adding all the fractions 1-(1/8+2/5+3/10)
1-(1/8+4/10+3/10)
1-(1/8+7/10)
1-(5/40+28/40
1-(33/40)
1=40/40
40/40-33/40
7/40 of his customers chose a natural finish
The word game in this passage means animals for hunting.
B) Irving is condemning the colonists’
mistreatment of others.
<span>We know the answer is not “A” because Irving
would, thus, need to be praising the devil since he attributes the persecutions
to the devil as the devil mentions he presides at the persecutions. We know the answer is not “C” because
superstition is not innately evil and is considered silly to some, and there is
nothing silly about the killing those found guilty during the persecutions of
the Quakers and Anabaptists. We know “D”
is not the answer because there is no mention as to how colonists view the devil.
There is mention of how the devil is
known in other countries; the only mention of the devil and the colonists is
how the devil mentions he presides at persecutions. Thus, we know that “B” is the best response because
to describe actions as those being watched over and encouraged by the devil is a condemnation
insinuating those taking part are accessories/accomplices to evil. </span>
Remark
Let's begin with the theme. What is the theme of this passage, exactly? Four people -- five if you include Dr. Heidegger -- are sitting around a circle bemoaning the fact that they have lost something not granted to anyone. They have lost their second youth. They have swallowed some water which gave them their youth only for a fleeting moment (it seems to them), and they mourn the passage of time that grants them no more youth that they had been living in for some short period.
The four felt that way. Only Dr. Heidegger seemed to have learned something that told him that he should be careful what he wished for: he might actually get it.
We have two themes then. We have 4 who wished for their youth back and we have one who didn't want any part of it. I think we have to cover both.
The best detail for those wanting it is the old woman who apparently got her youth back and she was incredibly beautiful. Now her hands are skinny and likely wrinkled. She puts those hands to her face and wishes herself to be dead because she despises the fact that she is old (and likely all her friends are dead and she is condemned to a life of weariness. I speculate, but is certainly unhappy about the aging process). She mourns that it is over so quickly. They all do. That's sentence 3.
Only Dr. Heidegger seems to understand that they got something they should never have received in the first place. The yellow sentence beginning with "Well I bemoan it not, ... " reflects his point view as well as anything. That's sentence 5.
