Answer:

C) shrewd investor.

Explanation:

The novel "Look Homeward, Angel" is a coming of age novel which is more like an autobiographical story of the author Thomas Wolfe's life. The book revolves around the character of Eugene Gant and how he grew up and away from his father's drunken ways.

In the given excerpt from the text, the character described is that of Eliza Pentland, the daughter of Major Pentland, wife of William Oliver Gant, and the mother of Eugene. The narrator here states that through the small savings she had kept from <em>"her wage as a teacher and book-agent"</em>, Eliza was able to buy land. This shows that she is a shrewd investor and knows a thing or two about land acquisition.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

From the day Danny Bannerman transferred to Spencerville High School, he was popular with the other students. A talented athlete
DENIUS [597]
The first prediction is extremely unlikely. Daniela is described as a "smart and sweet-faced girl" which would make no sense if she somehow behaved "spitefully toward him [Danny]". I can only see the second prediction happening if this were a cheesy cliche romance novel. However, logically this cannot happen, as Daniela was shy and joined no clubs, which limits her ability to gain friends. It would be unlikely if they ever met. Therefore, the prediction that would most likely happen would be the third one. It cannot be the fourth one as Danny has "good humor" and has a nice personality; he would not dislike Daniela with this type of attitude.

The answer is that Danny and Daniela will never meet and become friends.
