Answer:

Hi, you didn't put the answer options, but I can help you by showing you that the central idea in “two ways of looking at a river” is the statement that the more we know something, the more we change our opinion about it .

Explanation:

"Two ways of looking at a river" is a work by Mark Twain and describes how he changed his mind about the Mississippi River as he got to know it more and more. In the text Twain shows how he saw the river as something beautiful, poetic , somewhat mystical and transcendent, as something supernatural and ideological. However, after becoming a steamboat pilot and knowing the river in a professional way he started to change his mind, he started to see the river as something normal and natural, very different from the vision I had before.

A. Miss Grundy told Archie that he really spent a lot of time on his homework. As to what made her say this, it wasn't explicitly explained until the later parts of the conversation. Archie took this as a positive remark. 

B. Archie asked Miss Grundy if his homework was decent. Archie was pleased that her teacher knew he spent time on his homework and asked if his work pleased her. 

C. Miss Grundy really meant that Archie spent a lot of time on his homework because of the numerous stains from a whole evening's worth of snacks. It didn't mean that Archie's work was good, just that he spent a lot of time on it.

OLEGan [10]
<span>Puck is a powerful supernatural creature, capable of circling the globe in 40 minutes or morphing unsuspecting mortals in a deep fog. Also known as Robin Good fellow, Puck would have been familiar to a sixteenth-century English audience, who would have recognized him as a common household spirit. But he's also a "puck," an elf or goblin that enjoys playing practical jokes on mortals. Although he is more mischievous than malevolent, Puck reminds us that the fairy world is not all goodness and generosity.</span>
