Answer:

The correct answer is: a breakable promise of marriage between two children.

Explanation:

This passage explains that, unlike marriage, a betrothal is a promise made by the parents of two children to join them in matrimony in the future. However, this promise is "not inviolable" meaning that it can be broken.

iragen [17]

Answer:

D. To make social calls.

Explanation:

The short story "The Open Window" by Saki a.k.a. H. H. Munro is about the main character Framton Nuttel and his retreat to the countryside. The story is a hilarious yet horrific experience for Nuttel who became the latest victim of the playful niece, Vera's love of storytelling.

Framton Nuttel has been advised by his doctor to not exert himself mentally. In a bid to cure his nervous condition, he had gone to the countryside to relax and calm himself. And to make himself acquainted with the neighbors of that retreat, his sister had written letters of introduction to help him in his social calls.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
