A suffix, also known as ending, is an affix or morpheme which is attached after the root of a word to form a new word.  

Specifically,  the suffix <em>-ous </em>is a suffix that forms adjectives which <em>expresses that a certain person or object possesses a given quality</em>. Therefore, by studying this suffix in the word “impetuous”, the reader can determine that such word is an adjective which means <em>possessing great impetus,  characterized by sudden actions.</em>

stellarik [79]

Answer: 1. "It was idle, he knew, to get between a fool and his folly" means that it was useless and unimportant to make a fool understand something. 2. The fool is Hal. 3. His folly was his lack of good sense, trying to wake the dogs up. 4. John Thornton thought it was non-sense to intervene because regardless of the past warnings of the ice breaking down, he still wanted to wake the dogs up and continue moving.

Explanation: In the story, the team that is traveling towards their destination encounters difficulties to cross the river. John Thornton warns them that the ice is melting and that they might sink If they continue. Despite all the tragedies and losses the team has had in the trip, Hal ignores the warnings and tries to wake the dogs up. Thornton concludes that trying to convince a fool and his lack of non-sense is useless and unimportant since there is no way Hal will understand.
