The answer is "Mail Delivery These days is terrible!"
This is because the one saying this is blaming the delivery system because he was charged a late fee. This shows he is making a very unfair/unsound argument just because he has to pay more.
If it was a birthday card he had mailed, he wouldn't be as upset if it was a little late.
Answer:
The surprise ending allows readers to see story details in a new light after finishing the story because the conversation between the two men reveals that Mr. Easton was not the marshal: <em>"Oh! didn't you catch on? Say--did you ever know an officer to handcuff a prisoner to his right hand?" </em>and then the readers would probably check if that is correct by reading the story and this sentence again: <em>"He slightly raised his right hand, bound at the wrist by the shining "bracelet" to the left one of his companion."</em>
Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to <u>read the short story "Hearts and Hands"</u> written by O. Henry by the pseudonym Sidney Porter. It was written in 1902 and it is about a woman that realizes that someone she knows (Mr. Easton) is handcuffed, she gets scare and the marshal (the man she did not know) lies and tells her the marshal is Mr. Easton.

Answer:
The above paragraph is part of the story "Everyday use" and is said by Dee's mother, to show her disrespect about the family history.
Explanation:

The paragraph shown above, shows how disrespectful Dee is against her ancestry, even defending respect for African ancestry. Dee's mother shows with this paragraph how she does not know the greatest example of black ancestry that she could have, her own family, that she does not know the story.
