Question

Why did the author say that Mrs. Jenning's prophesies were "rather jumbled?" Select all that apply.1. No matter what, she desired genuine happiness.2. She acted with extreme intelligence and wit.3. She always believed that her daughter was unhappy.4. She misinterpreted what she heard, but acted out of kindness.

Answer 1

Answer:

1). No matter what, she desired genuine happiness.

4). She misinterpreted what she heard, but acted out of kindness.

Explanation:

As per the question, the author's deduction about Mrs. Jenning's predictions as 'jumbled' due to the reason that 'she desired for genuine happiness without considering what and how the situation is' and 'she failed to interpret the information that she heard appropriately but acted as being kind and sympathetic' which clearly reflects that her thoughts and actions do not synchronize and display a kind of confusion. Her disregard of the actual information or context and prioritizing her own desires and actions without understanding it creates a jumbling effect. Thus, options 1 and 4 approves this point.
