the window, "fairly muddy, but most of it's dry. Who was that who bolted out as we came up?" "A most extraordinary man, a Mr. Nuttel," said Mrs. Sappleton; "could only talk about his illnesses, and dashed off without a word of goodby or apology when you arrived. One would think he had seen a ghost." Which phrase from these sentences contributes most to the humor in the story?"think he had seen a ghost"
"a Mr. Nuttel"

"dashed off without a word of goodby"

"fairly muddy, but most of it's dry"

Answer:

"Think he had seen a ghost"

Explanation:

I am not really sure what they mean by "Mr. Nuttel." It could be a phrase used to describe someone or their actual name. Assuming that it is his actual name, "think he had seen a ghost" contributes most of the humor to the text. It means how someone reacts as if they had seen something really strange or frightening. Maybe the people are really ghosts, or "Mr. Nuttel" is a nickname. I don't have enough information to form a clear opinion.

svp [43]
My job, is like no other. I enjoy it and it gives me purpose. I start with a fresh tostada then I add only the best campari tomatoes, romaine lettuce, grass fed beef, cheese imported from Greece, organic low fat sour cream, pearl onions, and house made hot sauce made from white wine and the best chilies imported from Chilé. I am a son, a brother, but most importantly I am a chef who makes a mean taco.
