This question is about "The Monkey’s Paw"

Answer:

To emphasize the mystical power of the rabbit's paw, as there are many legends about animals and mysticism in India.

Explanation:

India is a land with many legends and many stories involving mysticism and animals. This was built mainly due to the cultural and religious characteristics of India that ended up creating a stereotype about the "magical" objects that are created there. Thus, when the author places the Whites visitor as a military man who was in India and brought with him a magical object, the author imposes credibility on that object and on the visitor's words.

Write a method named swapPairs that accepts an array of strings as a parameter and
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

rite a method named swapPairs that accepts an array of strings as a parameter and

switches the order of values in a pairwise fashion. Your method should switch the order

of the first two values, then switch the order of the next two, switch the order of the next

two, and so on. For example, if the array initially stores these values:

String[] a = {"four", "score", "and", "seven", "years", "ago"};

swapPairs(a);

Your method should switch the first pair ("four", "score"), the second pair ("and", "seven") and

the third pair ("years", "ago"), to yield this array:

{"score", "four", "seven", "and", "ago", "years"}

If there are an odd number of values, the final element is not moved. For example, if the

original list had been:

{"to", "be", "or", "not", "to", "be", "hamlet"}

It would again switch pairs of values, but the final value ("hamlet") would not be moved,

yielding this list:

{"be", "to", "not", "or", "be", "to", "hamlet"}
