Answer:
Based on this excerpt, and with no options, we can infer that Oliver's neighbors are <em>loving and caring people.</em>
Explanation:
According to these lines, Oliver's neighbors took care of him and laughed at his loud and crazy sprees that occurred him every two months. They "<em>picked him foul and witless from the cobbles, and brought him home</em>", this means they were tender to him and loved him. They treated him kindly and respected his ways.
Hard choosing from "A" to "D", but my best answer that I came up with is "D" or "4"
The word "Who's" is a plural and actual stands for "Who is" So if you put that in that sentence "Who is book about blue whales is this?" Or for "2" the word "Whomever's" doesn't make since in the sentence.. "Whomever's book about blue whales is this?" And the same with "3". But with "4" "Whose" It fits in that sentence.. "Whose book about blue whales is this?" It's best if you read the sentence out loud and see which word best fits in that sentence.
The word "while" is what makes the sentence a fragment, and substituting it with "when" would not correct it. The correct answer is B. delete "while" so that the sentence is: "She was making a pot of soup."
