Suddenly, I heard a strange noise. Far below, on the beach, there was a huge cockle shell. Puzzled, I landed next to it, hearing

the crying of many creatures inside of it. I sang the most beautiful song I knew to calm them. My curiosity about the contents of that shell gnawed at me. With my talons, I grasped the edges of the shell, and with a mighty effort, I pried it open. Out sprang dozens of human men!

The answer is B.

For the Haida people, all of humanity came from a cockle shell, liberated by The Raven, who opened the shell. The first men and women, in the Haida tradition, came from a sea creature, meaning all men come from the sea, therefore they have a deep respect for the sea. Also, the Haida, being people who live in an archipelago, get most of their resources (and communicate) through the sea, so they think highly of it and respect it.

Answer:

Last summer, I was delighted to spend the vacation with my family in Italy. When we arrived at the majestic hotel where we would spend our holidays, you could tell from our faces that we were famished and exhausted. After taking a cold and relaxing shower, I joined my family at the dinning hall, to enjoy a sumptuous meal of Spaghetti Bolognaise. It was a mouth-watering dish, filled with different shapes, sizes, and colors of garnishing. It was a fantastic meal and I could tell that the rest of the crew also enjoyed it.

1. What connection has Mr. Enfield made about the door where he saw Mr. Hyde enter
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The connection that Mr. Enfield had in his mind in relation to that door was with an odd and strange story.

Explanation:

"The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is a novella written by Robert Louis Stevenson. The story is about the dual personality of Dr. Jekyll.

In the first chapter, when Mr. Enfield and Mr. Utterson were on their morning walk, they halted before the two doors. Mr. Utterson asks Mr. Enfield if he had ever noticed that peculiar door. <u>To this, Mr. Enfield agrees and says that he shares a strange connection with that door</u>.

One black winter morning around 3 AM, Mr. Enfield saw a man trampling down a young girl of age eight or ten. The man did not seem to be moved by it, thus the crowd blackmailed the man to compensate or his reputation will be at stake. The man then enters that strange door and comes back with a check of ninety pounds and ten pounds in gold.

<u>Mr. Enfield calls this connection a </u><u>strange</u><u> and </u><u>odd</u><u> one as the man was weird and the sign that bore on the check belonged to a very reputed man. He called that house '</u><u>Black Mail House' with a door.</u>
