Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

They both believe in the magic.

Explanation:

The short story "The Monkey's Paw" by W. W. Jacobs revolves around the magical ability of a monkey's paw in fulfilling three wishes to its owner. The story relays the message the greed is never good for anyone, let alone bring people happiness.

Mr. White acquired the talisman from his friend Sergeant Major Morris who had got it during his time in India. And he believed that the talisman brings harm more than luck, and threw into the fire. But Mr. White took it out and decided to keep it for himself. This shows that he somehow believed in the magical ability of the monkey's paw. And like her husband, Mrs. White as well as their son Herbert also believed in the paw's magic. Their conversation about the <em>"two hundred pounds"</em> and their belief that it'll be granted shows their belief in the monkey's paw and its magical abilities.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is the third option</u>.

What are 2 methods of waste management that are not good for society
ivolga24 [154]

[] Answer(s) []

Disposal to landfill

Thermal treatment

[] Explanation \ Reasoning

Disposal to landfill is also known as a dump. When you take your trash or garbage to a garbage dump, you probably wonder what they do with it. Well, they take it away then throw it over an edge to never be dealt with again. There are heaps upon heaps of just trash from us humans. They don't burn it, bury it, or anything else. They just let it sit there. People are all against littering, but this is beyond littering. We are ruining our environment when we do this.

Thermal treatment is the way we use heat to get rid of our garbage. These methods of thermal treatment include: Incineration, Gasification and Pyrolysis and open burning. For example, instead of dumping or burying our trash, we burn it. This is not good for the air or for the earth. We pollute ourselves and our air when we do this. People burn their trash in their backyard, not even at a burning site. This is extremely bad.
