Read this passage from “The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County.” What can we assume about Simon Wheeler, based on the de

scription by the narrator? He (Simon Wheeler) never smiled, he never frowned, he never changed his voice from the gentle-flowing key to which he tuned the initial sentence, he never betrayed the slightest suspicion of enthusiasm; but all through the interminable narrative there ran a vein of impressive earnestness and sincerity, which showed me plainly that, so far from his imagining that there was anything ridiculous or funny about his story, he regarded it as a really important matter, and admired its two heroes as men of transcendent genius in finesse.

Simon is sincere and believes the stories that he tells. This is the answer because of the word play shown such as " impressive earnestness and sincerity" "he regarded it as a really important matter" this is the only[ answer that makes sense to me.

Compare and contrast the genres, figurative language for the origin of the pleiades and the pine and the tree that absorbed tear
cricket20 [7]
Nature helped in both stories with the tree that absorbed tears and the pine tree that grew in the place of the boy that was sucked into the ground. The genres of both stories you could say are folk tale and lesson to be learned. There are metaphors and similes throughout both of the stories. You could say the tree that grew in place of the boy was a sign of the boy's former life. The tree that absorbed the girls tears took away all of her sadness.
