Answer:

One thing theme that was shown in chapter one is that scrooge appearently knew that Old Marley and never seemed to tell anybody.

Explanation:

The chapter says "Scrooge knew he was dead? Of course he did. How could it be otherwise? Scrooge and he were partners for I don’t know how many years. Scrooge was his sole executor, his sole administrator, his sole assign, his sole residuary legatee, his sole friend, and sole mourner. And even Scrooge was not so dreadfully cut up by the sad event, but that he was an excellent man of business on the very day of the funeral, and solemnised it with an undoubted bargain". The reasoning was not really specified on why he never told anyone that he knew about Old Marley's death but ever since people found out, he was considered a suspect in the case.

I hope this helped! :)

Instead of asking the Hales for money, Ethan: (ethan frome)
Virty [35]

Answer:

Instead of asking the Hales for money, Ethan Frome turns back and returns home, setting aside the plans to run away with Mattie.

Explanation:

Edith Wharton's novel "Ethan Frome," tells the story of Ethan Frome and his struggle with his sick wife Zeena and his love for Mattie, his wife's cousin. Struggling to maintain what life is for him, the story delves into the concepts of what society expects of a person despite it being contrary to what one really wants.

Ethan wanted to run away with Mattie for he loves her. And so, deciding to ask for an advance to the Hales for the lumber, he went out to intercept Andrew Hale's wagon only to find Mrs. Hale. She told him that her husband is at home so Ethan went in that direction. His plan was to leave the farm and mill for Zeena and acquire the money for his and Mattie's life. But while walking towards the Hales' residence, his conscience took the better part of him. And so, instead of asking the Hales for money, he turned back and walked towards home without the money.

Answer:

‘Silent Spring’ and ‘Save the Redwood’ are both beautifully worded stories that both tell the story of human effect and neglect to the environment. The two pieces come from two very different backgrounds of authors, they both capture how clueless and mindless people are when it comes to the treatment of the environment, and they both express so elegantly how nature reacts to these changes. Carson grew up in the 1920’s already seeing the horrors of human deforestation, when he said that “Everywhere was a shadow of death.(Carson 1)”, that Muir talks about during the 1840’s. When Muir says that, “...some millmen want to cut all the Calaveras trees into lumber and money.(Muir, 1)” he is referring to the greed that millmen have towards our natural environment. But when this same topic is brought to light in ‘Silent Spring’, Carson writes, “... no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world. The people had done it themselves.(Carson, 1)”. This quote shows what can happen to environments that house people who are completely oblivious to the effects they have. Muir talks about how people are blinded by greed and are careless of their effects, but Carson talks about what can happen when people ignore problems like these. Carson begins to make the reader feel guilty, if they too have been close minded to the natural world around them. Muir says it similarly when he says, “Any fool can destroy trees. They cannot defend themselves or run away(Muir, 3).” Through the two short stories ‘Silent Spring’ and ‘Save the Redwood’, the readers are able to comprehend the cause and effect that can be seen through the time differences. The reader can see how ignorance towards the environment is just as bad as disrespectful as not acknowledging it, and is also able to see the effects it holds.
