Answer:

D. Mr. Winter asks her to babysit even though she has never seen him before; this unusual approach is a clue that something is off concerning the Winter family.

Explanation:

In this story, Harriet is babysitting Charles, who is the baby of the Winter family. However, she is confused about the reason why they asked her to babysit. She met Mr. Winter at the swim club, and he immediately requested this, even though he knew nothing about her. Moreover, when she is at the house, she is asked to not look in on the baby at all. All of these details indicate that there is something strange going on in this family.

Living like Weasels. What is the purpose of the two anecdotes, the story of the naturalist and the story of the eagle?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Living Like Weasels by Annie Dillard. The intention of this piece is to convince readers to live “as [they're] meant to,” focus on their individual purposes (or goals), and never give up on whatever they feel they are meant to do.

Explanation:

Annie Dillard wrote “Living Like Weasels”, an essay in which she paints the story of her encounter with a weasel. She explains that from her meeting with the weasel, she developed a great admiration for the weasel’s way of life; Weasels live not by choice, bias, or motive as humans do, but rather out of pure necessity. Dillard relishes the thought of going about life wild and careless as weasels do. She concludes that it’d be best if one would yield to the necessity to simply live as intended.

Dillard sees that the wild weasel has the freedom to live carelessly and solely by necessity; whereas, the way humans choose to live can identify necessity with miscellaneous things and be shaped by bias, motive, etc. If humans could understand the purity in the mindlessness of the weasel’s way of life, each person could live how they wanted, unrestricted by imposed human behavior, societal norms and expectations.

spayn [35]

Answer:

A) Nobody can really understand anyone else's story, because nobody knows what it is really like to see from another's perspective.

Explanation:

Support in the text:

"Do you see the story? Do you see anything? ... No, it is impossible; it is impossible to convey the life-sensation of any given epoch of one's existence -- that which makes its truth, its meaning -- its subtle and penetrating essence. It is impossible. We live ... -- alone".
