In the short story "Hearts and Hands," the author O. Henry suprises readers when at the end of the story two passangers acknowledge Mr. Easton is not the marshall but the counterfeiter, as he has deceived Miss Fairchild with the real marshall's complicity. Thus, O. Henry intends to cause amazement and mislead readers in the same way Mr. Easton misleads Miss Fairchild.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

She always writes down everything so that she would always remember good and bad.in the story she always had to hide and be very quiet when ever the the family heard someone in the building

Meip always agreed to whatever Mr Frank asked her to do while Mr Van Daan was a very intelligent man but had given up the right of decision making in-front of his wife.

Miep was a beautiful and young woman. She was the secretary of Mr Frank. She was asked by him to help their family in times of need.

As they could not go out and were hiding underground hence Miep had to shop for the entire family.

On the other hand, Van Daan's were loved by the Frank's in the beginning but later they showed childish behavior with hints of ego and impatience.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

D. constant dusk

Explanation:

According to a different source, this is the passage and the options that come with this question:

In the distant past, the Philippines was populated by a race of fairies who were unaffected by unpredictable weather. They minded neither sweltering heat nor freezing cold. They did not divide the day by hours of light and darkness. In fact, they lived in a constant dim twilight and never gave it any thought.

A. moderate temperatures

B. constant darkness

C. moderate sunlight

D. constant dusk

The setting of a story refers to the time and place in which the story takes place. In this case, we are told that the "race of fairies" in the story did not care about light or darkness, and that they lived in a "constant dim twilight." The best association we can make to this is that the fairies lived in constant dusk. Dusk refers to the darkest stage of twilight which occurs after sunset and just before night.
