Answer:

A: The shoemaker's bench and tools brought back terrible memories for Dr. Manette.

Explanation:

In Charles Dickens' "A Tale of Two Cities", the story revolves around the character of Dr. Alexandre Manette who had been reunited with his daughter after being in captivity for 18 years. The new life that they lead in London after their past life in Paris sets the plot of the story in these two places.

The given passage is from Book 2 chapter VI where Mr. Jarvis Lorry had went to the residence of the Manettes in London. While waiting for the doctor, he walked around the house and 'toured' the house. Once in the bedroom of the doctor, he found that the room <em>"looked the same as it had on the fifth floor of that miserable house near the wine shop in the suburb of Saint Antoine in Paris"</em>. The very last line of the passage shows Mr. Lorry exclaiming why the doctor still <em>"keeps... the reminder of his sufferings about him"</em>, which suggests that they (the shoemaker's bench and tools) bring back terrible memories for the doctor.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

I would say A, because the shoemaker's bench is the last thing referenced before the dialogue. it doesn't really sound like he's concerned abt the wife bc he seemed fond of the stuff that was like a reminder of her (D) and it's not the house that looks the same as paris, just that the shoemaker's bench didn't change (B). idek how to say C is wrong but

Ivanshal [37]

The correct answer is B) deciding on the scope of the topic.

<em>The task that is part of narrowing down a subject paper is deciding on the scope of the topic. </em>

It is very important for the writer to know the extension and the variables of the topic it is going to write about. Knowing the scope of the topic means that the writer limits the information to what is necessary and important for the reader to know.  This way the writer will know what data or information to include that is important for the comprehension of the topic and what is not. This is the way to ensure that the information is clear, specific and to the point.

NO RIGHT OR WRONG (as long as it makes sense)
Montano1993 [528]

Differences in strength, hormones, body structure, bone structure. Like when you draw a man figure, the body is usually a rectangle but when you draw a female, the body is an upside down triangle. Hormones like estrogen, only women have. Similarities are intelligence, appearance. Women and Men are treated differently, especially in the work place, because they used to be seen as lower class and we are thought of not being able to do some of the obs that men do, like manual labor because women don't have the same muscle mass or upper body strength as men do but men are also seen as not being able to do some jobs that women do, especially in households, because they don't have motherly instincts or they can't cook as well as women can.
