We can see that Mr White is satisfied with his life and thinks that he has in his life all that he needs. He can wish for anything yet he doesn't know what to wish for because he's got everything that he deems that he needs.

Read the following excerpt from “The Monkey’s Paw” by W.W. Jacobs.

<em>Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. “I don’t know what to wish for, and that’s a fact,” he said slowly. “It seems to me I’ve got all I want.” </em>

<em>“If you only cleared the house, you’d be quite happy, wouldn’t you?” said Herbert, with his hand on his shoulder. “Well, wish for two hundred pounds, then; that’ll just do it.”      </em>

Question: What does the dialogue in this excerpt reveal about Mr. White’s character?

Answer: The dialogue reveals that Mr. White's character is lighthearted.

Explanation: Herbert's reaction to wishing on the paw is more lighthearted   and carefree than Mr. White's reaction.

What do you believe is the connotative meaning of the word immigrants in the title?
lukranit [14]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

To answer that question, you need to understand that the connotative meaning of a word is the non-literal and figurative meaning that that word has. The connotation emits a subjunctive meaning that does not match the real meaning of that word. An example diss can be seen in the phrase "Joaquim has a heart of gold" where he presents the expression "heart of gold" with a connotative sense, because no one really has a heart made of gold, but this expression provides the figurative meaning that Joaquin has the good heart.
