Fairy-tale Logic By A.E. Stallings Fairy tales are full of impossible tasks: Gather the chin hairs of a man-eating goat, Or cros

s a sulphuric lake in a leaky boat, Select the prince from a row of identical masks, Tiptoe up to a dragon where it basks And snatch its bone; count dust specks, mote by mote, Or learn the phone directory by rote. Always it’s impossible what someone asks— You have to fight magic with magic. You have to believe That you have something impossible up your sleeve, The language of snakes, perhaps, an invisible cloak, An army of ants at your beck, or a lethal joke, The will to do whatever must be done: Marry a monster.

Part A At the beginning of "Zlateh the Goat," what does the narrator imply about Reuven? A. He was no as successful as the rest
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Part A: D. He has not earned enough money to spend on the upcoming holiday.

Part B: B. “For Reuven the furrier it was a bad year, and after long hesitation, he decided to sell Zlateh the goat.”

Explanation:

Reuven was a furrier which means that he made and fixed fur clothing for people. It is implied in the beginning of the short story that he had not made enough to spend on the holiday because it was said to be a bad year for him.

From the things he hoped to buy with the money that he negotiated with the butcher for Zlateh, we can infer that he had not earned enough money to buy the things needed for the holiday and now he would be able to.

"My name is Mr. Sir," he said. "Whenever you speak to me you must call me by my name, is that clear?" What best describes this s
zysi [14]

The correct option is “It contains an implied personality trait.” since we can infer the personality of the character by the words he says. The personality trait that is highlighted here is “authoritarian”.  

In the sentence there are no adjectives or direct words used to describe a physical or personality trait so the options mentioning a stated trait are incorrect.  

Finally, the option that mentions implied physical trait is also incorrect since no hint is given that describes indirectly a physical characteristic of Mr. Sir.
