Answer:C. The visitor left his stick behind.

Explanation:

Your question is referring to the excerpt from ''The Hound of the Baskervilles''  by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in which Sherlock is describing his visitor at the beginning of the first chapter.

''Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who was usually very late in the mornings, save upon those not infrequent occasions when he stayed up all night, was seated at the breakfast table. I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before.''

After that, Sherlock picks up the stick and read what is written on it and then he is asking Watson about his opinion on it.

He was considered as the absent-minded because he left something with his name and evidence that is showing that he was there. If he was aware, he would not do that. In that way, Sherlock got all information about him.

But the specter of delivering a speech brown-nosing the teachers jammed her imagination. At first, she didn't want to, and then
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

The use of informal language and sarcasm in the text provided a vivid description of the turmoil Yoyo was passing through. Words and phrases such as "brown-nosing", "jammed", "deliver a eulogy for a convent full of crazy, old, overweight nuns," presented the ideas being conveyed by the speaker in a sarcastic manner.

Informal language deviates from the official use of a language and this was evident in many of the colloquial idioms that were used to describe Yoyo.
