What inference can the reader make about Simon Wheeler?

English
1 answer:
AlladinOne [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

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

Explanation:

From <em>The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County  </em>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.

Ad the passage.
ELEN [110]
<span>His coward lips did from their colour fly,
And that same eye whose bend doth awe the world
Did lose his lustre: I did hear him groan:
Ay, and that tongue of his that bade the Romans
Mark him and write his speeches in their books,
Alas, it cried 'Give me some drink, Titinius,'
As a sick girl. Ye gods, it doth amaze me
A man of such a feeble temper should
So get the start of the majestic world
And bear the palm alone.



What is the meaning of the line, "Ay, and that tongue of his that bade the Romans / Mark him and write his speeches in their books"? </span><span>Caesar's powerful speeches impressed the Romans, who recorded them in writing. Based on this quote from Shakespeare this is the logical conclusion of what the Romans thought of Julius Cesar's speeches. </span>

Hat is one way the American Dream is defined by today’s pop culture? In other words, what are some things in our country that ce
mihalych1998 [28]

The American Dream today has devolved into just trying to be able to pay for everything. That's my answer; if there even is still an American Dream.

America tends to glorify money the most; you have to make money, you have to have a home, you have to pay all of this by yourself, you have to buy this product to look and feel beautiful, you have to buy the latest technology; it's disheartening and exhausting. The act of purchasing things is the most glorified thing in America. Almost everywhere you look, there's an ad; and usually those few places you look and see no ads for is because it's a nonprofit!

____ [38]
The main idea of this paragraph is that there are different definitions of the word love. It can be forced like in a Midsummer Night's Dream (although it didn't happen in the story it almost did), or it can be a strong passion for someone (Romeo and Juliet great example), and when the paragraph says connecting families, one example would be a king of England's (forgot which one) daughter married a distant relative.
