Answer:

Louise Carpenter was gripping a desk, her knuckles white.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story entitled, "Object Lesson," which was written by<em> Ellery Queen (a pseudonym). </em>

The story centers on the character of Ellery, as he was called by Miss Carpenter to have a speech in class regarding<em> "Notorious Criminals I Have Known." </em>This came about when Miss Carpenter knew that three of his students in class were responsible for a juvenile crime she witnessed. However, on the day of the speech, Miss Carpenter noticed that <u>someone stole her $7 inside her envelop.</u>

As Ellery was searching the different places where the suspect might have placed the $7, "<em>Louise Carpenter was gripping a desk, her knuckles white." </em>This causes uncertainty on the reader because<u> it doesn't give a clear sign whether the money will be found or not</u>.

Louise Carpenter's action shows that she is <em>"anticipating to be let down."</em> This means that she, somehow, figured out that <u>Ellery won't be able to find the suspect and money because they only have a few minutes left</u> <em>(4 and 1/2 minutes, to be exact)</em>.<em> </em>

Choose the text structure that best describes the type of organization the author used in "Mother Teresa": problem and solution,
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Chronological order

Explanation:

"Mother Teresa" tells the story of Mother Teresa during her years of life, explaining the woman she was and how that made her the icon that is considered today by Catholics around the world. The article is organized in a chronological structure, organizing the events of her life as they happened and making the reader understand her attitudes towards the physical and spiritual maturity that she was building as she got older and as time passed.

In other words, the author may have decided to write the article in chronological order so that the reader would see Mother Teresa's gradual growth and evolution.
