What is meant by “eternally burning black pipes”? What is this implying about the personality of the firemen?

English
1 answer:
Citrus2011 [14]3 years ago
4 0

The meaning of “eternally burning black pipes”refers to the physical looking and especifically the faces of the firemen involved in the story.  

It implies the colour of cinders and ash about them, and the continual smell of burning from their pipes. In this regard, the story describes a fireman having black hair, black brows, a fiery face, and a blue-steel shaved and unshaved look.  These men were all mirror-images of the main character that the autor wants readers to know through his looks as well as his  proclivities.

I came home to find the entire kitchen floor covered in scraps of sock:
evablogger [386]

Answer:

D. Jake tore up the main character's socks.

Explanation:

Well, all of the other answers do not make sense.

B does not make sense beacause Jake probably also eats other things and nothing in the passage says he only eats socks.

C does not make sense because nothing in the passage says Jake is the main chaecters brother.

A and D were probably the answers you were confused with.

A would kinda make sense but it is quite obvious that in the passage they do not focus on the fact that Jake brought the socks to the kitchen at all.

They focus on the fact Jake broke the sock.

So D would be a reasonable explanation and is basically the only one that makes sense.

That is my answer!

inysia [295]
I would say that the passage which best suggests an indirect cause is B) Jack slew the giant because he sold the cow for magic beans.
Him selling the cow wasn't the direct cause for him killing the giant, but it happened indirectly.
