Answer:

The inference that the reader can make about Simon Wheeler is that B)Simon Wheeler is friends with the Rev. Leonidas W. Smiley.

Explanation:

From The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County by Mark Twain, the reader can make the inference that Simon Wheeler is friends with the Rev. Leonidas W. Smilly because the narrator has a friend living in the East and he writes his friend to look for a man named Simon Wheeler and find out how the narrator's friend Leonidas Smiley is doing.

It turns out that it was a practical joke because there is no such person as Leonidas Smiley but he chose the name "Smiley" so that he would recall "good natured" Jim Smiley and launch into a lengthy narration about him which he eventually does.

In at least 150 words, discuss how the popularity of such works as Benjamin Franklin’s Poor Richard’s Almanack and “The Way To W

Kryger [21]

Benjamin Franklin's "The Way To Wealth" signifies the change from the "puritan plain" writing style to the "protestant work ethic" style. In fact, it wasn't just the writing style that changed, it was American values, traditions, nationalism, and culture that changed during this time as well. The popularity of The Way To Wealth showed that more and more Americans were concerned with higher levels of intellectual knowledge, than they did for futile religious dogma and rhetoric. Furthermore, Americans didn't love with being a colony of the British Empire, so this area in time also represented a gradual change in the American value of British nationalism, to American nationalism. Therefore, besides the fact that Americans were switching from the puritan faith to the protestant doctrine, they were also beginning to change their values in regards to education and British nationalism. The reason being, they no longer wanted education for the rich, but they wanted it for everyone and they weren't fond of being taxed a lot by Great Britain.
