Answer:

C. To cause the father discomfort and internal distress

Explanation:

Roger Chillingworth represents evil. He was a difficult husband, who ignored his wife most of the time but still expected her to  show him affection. He assumed the identity of a leech. He feeds on The vitality of others because he sees it as a way of energizing his own projects.

Chillingworth was not able to engage in relationships with those around him. Chillingworth having lost his victim Dimmesdale, He has no other choice but to die. His ultimate goal of wanting to know the father of Hester's child was to cause Him discomfort and internal distress. He is most intrested in revenge and not justice and only wants to destroy others instead of addressing the wrongs.

Point/purpose of shopping at a grocery shop<br> I need a paragraph (5-7 sentence)
Morgarella [4.7K]

Because supermarkets serve as the link between supply and demand, they are the most significant part of food production and delivery. Farmers markets are an option, but they are out of reach. As a result, when a retailer like WalMart decides to sell milk made without particular hormones, the entire milk production sector changes. The competitive advantage of a farmer is no longer "produces more milk," but rather "produces rBST-free milk." In a similar spirit, supermarkets and farmers markets are ostensibly competitors. Shop at farmers markets, and supermarkets will begin to seek out and sell organic items that are only available at the farmer's market. Supermarkets are necessary for today's lifestyle. Today, finding the ingredients you need to create cuisine in mom and pop specialized stores and butcher shops is difficult. Because supermarkets may buy in large quantities due to the ease of 'one-stop shopping.' They may buy things for a cheap price and sell them for less than a tiny, mom and pop business would pay for the same goods. And drive tiny businesses out of business. As a result, we now have to go to the grocery to acquire what we need to make our meals.

Trava [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation: Settlers tended to go to New Netherland for the rumors of a better life, with lots of trade opportunities. On the other hand, English people were running from England to English colonies so they could have religion freedom, since they disagreed to the Church of England.

What are at least two common mental disorders one might find in Gothic stories?
emmainna [20.7K]
From what I remember and what I've read there was a lot of "madness" "morbid" and seemingly made up diagnosis by husbands of their wive's "hysteria". A lot of stories portrayed people as being "manic," "delirious," "withdrawn," "depressed" (melancholy). I hope this helps.
