The sentence that follows the correct apostrophe rule is option C. The book's story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not. The correct placement of the apostrophe should be on the word "book's" because it shows ownership, which means "the story of the book". The word "its" should not have an apostrophe because "it's" is the shorter term for "it is".

How is Patrick Maloney, the husband, acting when he arrives home? How is this different from his normal behavior, and what does
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Patrick Maloney drinks heavily when he arrives home. He is not as communicative as he usually is. This behavior foreshadows that he has some news for his wife, which she will not be happy to hear.

Explanation:

Foreshadowing is a literary device in which the author gives the readers certain clues about what will happen later in the story.

In "Lamb to the Slaughter", Patrick Maloney returns home and everything seems as usual, until he starts to drink a lot of alcohol. He barely talks to his wife, giving short answers to what Mary says. This behavior indicates that Patrick has certain news to share with his wife, and that he expects that she will not be happy when she hears it. He wants to leave his pregnant wife, and is aware that there is a difficult conversation in front of them.

Which statement from the passage proves that donuts are indeed a desert tradition
goblinko [34]

C. These early doughnuts were found in prehistoric Native American ruins.

C is the best answer. A tradition is something that has been around for a while. Option C says that doughnuts were found in prehistoric Native American ruins which means that they have been around for a long long time. Option D is not a good choice because it doesn't say anything about donuts, it's only about bread. The other options do not indicate that they have been around for a significant portion of time.
