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.

Answer:

ABBA

Explanation:

In a poem generally the last word of each line indicates the rhyming scheme. It is denoted be letters ABC etc. The first word of the first line is taken as A in a stanza and the last word of each line is compared with it. If the last word of the second line rhymes with the word in the first line then we write the rhyme scheme as AABB. Where B is the another word rhyming with the last word of the fourth line and so on.

Here sky (A) rhymes with lie (A) and air (B) rhymes with fair (B).

So, the rhyming scheme of this stanza is ABBA.
