Answer:
in diplomatic history, the Eastern Question was the issue of the political and economic instability in the Ottoman Empire from the late 18th to early 20th centuries and the subsequent strategic competition and political considerations of the European great powers in light of this. Characterized as the "sick man of Europe", the relative weakening of the empire's military strength in the second half of the eighteenth century threatened to undermine the fragile balance of power system largely shaped by the Concert of Europe. The Eastern Question encompassed myriad interrelated elements: Ottoman military defeats, Ottoman institutional insolvency, the ongoing Ottoman political and economic modernization programme, the rise of ethno-religious nationalism in its provinces, and Great Power rivalries.[1]
While there is no specific date on which the Eastern Question began, the Russo-Turkish War (1828–29) brought the issue to the attention of the European powers, Russia and Britain in particular. As the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire was believed to be imminent, the European powers engaged in a power struggle to safeguard their military, strategic and commercial interests in the Ottoman domains. Imperial Russia stood to benefit from the decline of the Ottoman Empire; on the other hand, Austria-Hungary and Great Britain deemed the preservation of the Empire to be in their best interests. The Eastern Question was put to rest after the First World War, one of the outcomes of which was the collapse and division of the Ottoman holdings.

Answer:
She does not trust Mr. Brympton.
Explanation:
Edith Wharton's gothic novel <em>The Lady Maid's Bell</em>, the story revolves around the life of a lady's maid named Hartley who came to work for the Brympton family. Employed at their country estate to look after Mrs. Brympton, Hartley tells the story of how the house seemed out of the ordinary and something weird about it too.
As given in the passage, Hartley narrates how her master Mr. Brympton's demeanor changed after she had suffered from typhoid. Her own words <em>"I was not the kind of morsel he was after"</em> show he's lost interest in her, which is something that she felt happy about. Her relief is seen in the line <em>"Typhoid had served me well enough in one way: it kept that kind of gentleman at arm’s-length",</em> meaning she is safe from most presumably the target of Mr. Brympton's advances. The change in her appearance after the typhoid led to the repulse from the master of the house. But this also shows the kind of man he must be, which the speaker feels grateful for, for he no longer seems to be interested in her. And this has led us to conclude that <u>she does not trust him.</u>
