Which sentences in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich show Ivan Ilyich’s struggle with his life and his in

ability to let go of his past? For three whole days, during which time did not exist for him, he struggled in that black sack into which he was being thrust by an invisible, resistless force. He struggled as a man condemned to death struggles in the hands of the executioner, knowing that he cannot save himself. And every moment he felt that despite all his efforts he was drawing nearer and nearer to what terrified him. He felt that his agony was due to his being thrust into that black hole and still more to his not being able to get right into it. He was hindered from getting into it by his conviction that his life had been a good one. That very justification of his life held him fast and prevented his moving forward, and it caused him most torment of all. Suddenly some force struck him in the chest and side, making it still harder to breathe, and he fell through the hole and there at the bottom was a light. What had happened to him was like the sensation one sometimes experiences in a railway carriage when one thinks one is going backwards while one is really going forwards and suddenly becomes aware of the real direction. "Yes, it was not the right thing," he said to himself, "but that's no matter. It can be done. But what is the right thing? he asked himself, and suddenly grew quiet.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

The evidence Levitt and Dubner present in response to the counterclaim is that 7-7 wresters' results drop (first option).

<h3>What is a counterclaim?</h3>

This is a statement that disproves the main claim or thesis. Moreover, this can be answered by providing evidence that disproves the counterclaim.

<h3>What evidence do Levitt and Dubner present?</h3>

The counterclaim is that a 7-7 is more likely to win, this can be disproved through the detail that these wrestlers' results drop because this shows they are not more likely to win than others.

Note: This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here are the options:

In the next match, 7-7 wrestlers' results drop below their predicted percentage.

The 7-7 wrestlers do well against both 8-6 and 9-5 opponents.

Wrestling matches only last a few seconds and are won by a quick exertion of force.

Wrestlers from the same stable do not oppose one another.

Which event in the story initiates the rising action? in the monkey paws
masya89 [10]

The introduction and the history of the talisman is the initial rising action in the W. W. Jacobs short story, "The Monkey's Paw." The Whites inherit the paw from their acquaintance, Sergeant-Major Morris, who reveals the mysterious past of the shriveled hand. When he throws it into the fireplace, Mr. White retrieves it. Morris warns them to wish wisely before leaving for the night.
    The rising action continues as Mr. White makes his first wish.

    "I wish for two hundred pounds," said the old man distinctly.

Mr. White feels the paw move, and a depressing feeling of uneasiness falls upon the family for the remainder of the night. The next morning, Mr. and Mrs. White are paid a visit from the company where their son, Herbert, works. He has been killed in a grisly accident--"caught in the machinery"--and the Whites are offered a compensation of 200 pounds. Although it could be argued that this is the climax to the story, the action actually continues to rise a bit longer as the Whites exercise their second wish--for Herbert to be alive again. The rising action peaks when the Whites realize that their less-than-specific wish has an alternate possibility--that Herbert may be revived but in his deathly, crippled state.
