Which paragraphs from the excerpt best support the conclusion that the author’s primary purpose is to teach a lesson? Select two

options. “All the answers being different, the King agreed with none of them, and gave the reward to none. But still wishing to find the right answers to his questions, he decided to consult a hermit, widely renowned for his wisdom.” “The hermit lived in a wood which he never quitted, and he received none but common folk. So the King put on simple clothes, and before reaching the hermit's cell dismounted from his horse, and, leaving his body-guard behind, went on alone.” “When the King approached, the hermit was digging the ground in front of his hut. Seeing the King, he greeted him and went on digging. The hermit was frail and weak, and each time he stuck his spade into the ground and turned a little earth, he breathed heavily.” “The King went up to him and said: ‘I have come to you, wise hermit, to ask you to answer three questions: How can I learn to do the right thing at the right time? Who are the people I most need, and to whom should I, therefore, pay more attention than to the rest? And, what affairs are the most important, and need my first attention?’” “The hermit listened to the King, but answered nothing. He just spat on his hand and recommenced digging.” “’You are tired,’ said the King, ‘let me take the spade and work awhile for you.’”

Which statement best explains the situational irony that
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The aunt does not expect the bachelor to tell a story,

but he does.

Explanation:

The Storyteller is a populaly known short story authored by Hector Hugh mcgrath. The participants in the chapter are also the ones described, the baby, the aunt as well as the single.

Irony applies to the comparison between perceptions and what really occurs. The extract includes two instances of this: first, the right response, as the actual hopes as that if the gentleman should stay quiet, and he doesn't; and secondly, whenever the gentleman begins talking, once the children appear to be curious, and thereafter they know that almost all storeys were doing the same.

How does F. Scott Fitzgerald use his characters and story to show the gains and losses in pursuing wealth and upward mobility br
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer and Explanation:

F. Scott Fitzgerald uses the characters to show how dreaming about something changes the entire psychological and emotional construction of an individual, leading him to the despair that makes him do anything to achieve that dream, even something immoral and improper. This is clear in Gatsby, who through his dream of social ascension, ends up taking very immoral attitudes, these attitudes are reinforced by his dream of being with Daisy. This quest for ascension and achievement becomes more and more desperate, because it seems increasingly distant, even though Gatsby has already achieved most of his goals. F. Scott Fitzgerald shows how uncontrolled despair, guided by desire, can cause tragedies and irreparable losses, as happened with Gatsby, who so much pursued his goals in non-commendable ways, had a sad and undesirable ending.
