Since it says casual relationship, I am going to have to go with "I have a wife and seven children, and I am going insane."
let me know if it is correct? xD
In the story "To Build a Fire," London tells the story of a man who dies in the Arctic. However, it is important to note that the man in question does not have a name, nor is there any dialogue associated with his character.
There are two main reasons why the author most likely decided to create the character in this way. First, such a lack of development allows the man to remain anonymous. Therefore, the reader understands that this is the story of many men who died in similar ways. It allows the character to stand for a variety of men in similar circumstances.
The second reason is that it contributes to highlighting the insignificance of the man. By not giving the man a name or dialogue, the author is able to minimize the importance of the man, and thus make the power of the surrounding nature all the more important and impressive.
Answer:
D)
. The boys' mother will not be gentle.
Explanation:
The short story "The Encounter" by M. Kendall Hunt tells the story of how two young college students left their house in a state of an array in the absence of their mother and the other family members. And the imminent 'scolding' that's on their way will be the highlight of the whole scenario, at least according to their younger brother Benjamin.
At the end of the story, we see the boys' mother calling them to get back inside so that they can talk. The way the narrator describes her voice, <em>"in a deceptively gentle tone"</em> suggests that she will not be gentle. Deceptive is a word we use to "conceal" or hide the real thing, and she used deception, gentleness to ask them back so that they will talk about the condition of the house. But we already know how she’ll react, for Benjamin reveals at the beginning of the story that <em>"[their] mother would have a coronary when she saw it".
</em>
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
