In "A Cub Pilot," after Twain realizes that the others are testing his confidence and courage, he says, "It was a fine trick to

play on an orphan, wasn't it?"
How does Twain's use of the word "orphan" affect the memoir?

It shows that Twain also thinks the prank the others played is very funny.

It indicates that Twain's father is Mr. Bixby.

It conveys how Twain feels alone, with no one looking out for him.

It demonstrates that Twain still does not realize that he is the victim of a joke.

Answer:

In this excerpt from <em>A Cub Pilot</em>, Twain's use of the word <em>orphan</em> affects the memoir by <em>conveying the reader how he feels alone, with no one looking out for him</em>. <u>The correct answer is the third one.</u>

Explanation:

I chose this answer because, <u>although the excerpt itself doesn't say anything literal about it</u>, the use of the word <em>orphan</em> gives a sensation of sadness, of loneliness. Twain doesn't say anything to the others, but <u>the connotation of the word orphan is not a happy one</u>; it gives the reader the feeling of Twain being <em>lonely</em>, with no one near, maybe of him feeling an outsider.

USE LAW OF DEMAND IN A SENTENCE
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

When analyzing the process of the exchange of goods and services, one must not ignore the law of demand.

Explanation:

The law of demand is a concept from microeconomics stating that price and quantity of goods and services are inversely proportional while other factors remain unchanged. This means that, when the price of a product decreases, the demand for it increases, and the other way around. It is natural that consumers are more likely to purchase a product when its price is lower, thus increasing the demand for it.
