Answer:
Mr. H. knew the printer would help them upon release from prison.
Explanation:
It can be inferred from the passage that Mr. H. intervened to release the printer from prison for a reason that probably had nothing to do with sympathy and everything to do with personal interests.
To have been able to find the jailed printer in the first place, Mr. H. would have had to know where to look. If he were looking then he was probably looking for <em>something or someone </em>and the printer was the man he needed to owe him a favor.
Answer:
Your answers would be:
Chat, Talk, Discuss, and, Stride, Walk, Stroll.
Explanation:
The definition of Chat: To talk in a friendly and informal way.
The definition itself, already has the word talk in it, and the definition of Discuss: To talk about (something) with another person or group of people.
These words are synonyms.
The definition of Stride: To walk with long, decisive steps in a specified direction.
Again, this definition already has the word walk within it, and the definition of Stroll: To walk in a leisurely way.
These words are synonyms.
Puns were used by Shakespeare to explain meaning, to make sense of the world around his characters. If a certain scene in his play was a bit confusing, he would often use a pun, which is a play on words, in order to explain what is happening in more detail. His puns were very clever, and many of them are still used today, without people even realizing how old they actually are.
