What do the last two sentences in this excerpt from Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist suggest about parish officials?

English

I believe the correct answers are: B) They deliberately ignored the suffering of the parish children, and D) They wanted to give the impression that they were performing their work.

Apparently, all the parish officials wanted was to preserve the appearance that everything was right, while keeping up with their corrupted practice of conceiving the problems and malpractice. Their duty was to make sure that the children were cared for, but they refused to do it, fully aware of the consequences.

Read the passage from chapter 17 of The Prince.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

C) logical evidence in the form of generalizations

Explanation:

Generalization occurs due to the convergence of situations that are comparable. Our real-world facts are hypotheses regarding circumstances that haven't been witnessed. The differences between persons is what differentiates their similarities.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Nash equilibrium is game theory that says the optimal outcome of a game is achieved when there is no deviation from the initial strategy.

It occurs when a player do not change his/her own chosen strategy after considering his opponent to get the best outcome.

A player strategy during game is believed to be optimal and should not be changed for the opponent irrespective of the person strategy. If eventually a strategy is changed, it may not attract any compensation.

Which detail from “The Monkey’s Paw” is most clearly an example of foreshadowing?
andre [41]

Answer:

A. The fakir's prediction that anyone who interferes with fate will be sorry.

Explanation:

W. W. Jacobs' short story <em>"The Monkey's Paw"</em> revolves around the theme of superstitious beliefs emanating from an ancient relic called <em>"the paw"</em> from India. This piece of the animal body seemed to have the ability to grant any wish that its owner might have, much like the fairy-tale story of Aladdin and the genie in the lamp.

Foreshadowing provides a sense of knowing something before it happens. This allows a writer to provide hints that will be about what will happen in the coming scenes. And in this story, foreshadowing is clearly seen in the Sergeant-Major's words when he mentions about the fakir's warning of how <em>"fate ruled people's lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow"</em>. This seems to be true, for the first owner's third wish was death and that was how the 'thing' came to be in the possession of the Sergeant-Major. And this warning <em><u>foreshadows how Herbert White will wish for £200 which will lead to the unfortunate death of his son and the said amount being given as compensation. </u></em>
