Based on this excerpt, "feeling sick" contextually means to feel intense emotion that makes one feel unwell or nauseous. While the man is not going to actually become physically ill, he does experience emotional sickness. He would likely feel a deep pit in his stomach and would be chilled from the thought of the man losing his wife, yet still being kind to him.

Chin-Kee is Jin's cousin from whose side of the family? (p. 225)
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Chin-Kee is a fictional character from the graphic novel "American Born Chinese" which was written by Gene Luen Yang. It is unclear whose side of the family Chin-Kee is actually from since it is never explicitely mentioned in the novel but what is clear is that the Monkey King has transformed into Chin-Kee by the end of the novel, while Jin Wang has transformed into the white American teen Danny who hates Chin-Kee.

It should be "I will be" because this sentence is past tense. Meaning the "I will be" would be in the future. And since those are the answers 'I will be' would be the the answer. Which means the sentenced corrected would be: I was happy to help you in the garden when I came to visit you last month.
