English
1 answer:
Kruka [31]3 years ago

Answer:

the aunt does not expect the bachelor to tell a story but he does.

Explanation:

We are referring to an excerpt of “The Storyteller” written by Jodi Picoult.

The aunt did not like the bachelor’s comment about she did not know how to tell a good story. The aunt stiffly says to him that it is difficult to tell a story that children can understand and appreciate. When the bachelor did not agree with her, the aunt challenges him to tell a story with the girls support and that is what he does. He began telling his story. That is why the statement that best explains the situation irony that occurs in the passage is the aunt does not expect the bachelor to tell a story but he does.

By studying the historical context of a story you can better understand
s344n2d4d5 [400]
I think D is the best answer choice. for a work written around the time of the salem witch trials, you can better understand why extreme fear and condemnation of witchcraft might show up, and the author's purpose is a major thing to understand a work. C doesn't really make sense, because historical context is based on facts, so the context doesn't so much help you understand an author's attitude/opinion. B is true to some degree, but D is still a stronger answer as B is somewhat circular; historical context is an inherent part of a historical character? and A doesn't even make sense to me but i personally would go with D

Why does Sherlock Holmes conclude that the unknown visitor to his rooms is absent-minded? A. The visitor's stick has tooth marks
Valentin [98]

Answer:C. The visitor left his stick behind.

Explanation:

Your question is referring to the excerpt from ''The Hound of the Baskervilles''  by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in which Sherlock is describing his visitor at the beginning of the first chapter.

''Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who was usually very late in the mornings, save upon those not infrequent occasions when he stayed up all night, was seated at the breakfast table. I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before.''

After that, Sherlock picks up the stick and read what is written on it and then he is asking Watson about his opinion on it.

He was considered as the absent-minded because he left something with his name and evidence that is showing that he was there. If he was aware, he would not do that. In that way, Sherlock got all information about him.
