timurjin [86]3 years ago
6 0
The theme of the story, appearances can be deceiving, is seen in Mathilde’s desire to appear rich, the appearance of the necklace, and in the actions taken by the Loisels to deceive Madame Forester. Until the very last line of the story, Mathilde believes her greatest mistake was in losing the necklace, not trying to appear rich though she was not, or deceiving her friend.

(Its/It's) hot outside today.
eduard

It's hot outside today.

It's is the contrasted form of it is and its is the possessive form *as it is without an apostrophe*.

For example:

The tree has lost all its leaves.

It's my birthday today.

Which character trait of Sherlock Holmes does this excerpt from "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle i
Maru [420]

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

Which character trait of Sherlock Holmes does this excerpt from "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle illustrate?

A. His ambitious nature

B. His perfectionist nature

C. His tendency to be cautious

D. His powers of observation

The correct answer is D. His power of observation

Explanation:

In this excerpt, the narrator describes how the detective Sherlock Holmes noticed the stains of mud in the jacket of the woman, and based on this evidence Holmes knew this woman had traveled on a train recently. This discovery requires specialized observation and analysis. Indeed, this shows Sherlock Holmes' power of observation because he was keen enough to notice the smears and then reach a valid conclusion as the woman admits Sherlock's conclusion is true "and came in by the first train to Waterloo."
