Explanation:
Here's the remainder of the question:
What is the purpose of the author’s description of the beauty of the combs?
a The author is emphasizing the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them.
b. This description is included as a part of the setting of the story.
c. The author is contrasting Della’spoverty with her extravagant tastes.
d. The author wants the reader to understand Jim’s disappointment in Della..
From the excerpt, we can deduce that Della had always worshipped and craves for the beautiful combs, which were pure tortoise shell, and had jewelled rims which she could use for her hair.
We are further told that even though the conbs were expensive, and that she had craved and yearned for them, she has them now but that the tresses that would have adorned the coveted adornments were gone.
This illustrates the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them.

Answer:
D. A character has many adventures on his or her journey to get back
home
Explanation:
The common archetype from The Odyssey and The Wizard of Oz is that the protagonist or main character has a lot of adventures on their quest to get home.
In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy is taken to a fantasy land where she meets the Which of the North. She asks how she can get home and is told that the Wizard of Oz in Emerald City could help her.
On her way, she meets different characters and when they arrive they are told that the Witch of the West must be killed in order for their wishes to be granted. On their way, they are faced by the minions of the witch who knows they are coming. Eventually, she makes it home.
In The Odyssey, a warrior is stranded on his way home and meets with a lot of dangers and loss of his men and ships but eventually with the help of the gods, he makes it home to Ithaca.
The correct answer is C.
Thoreau wrote "Civil Disobedience" to express his discontent about the government control over its citizens.
In the essay, Throreau argues that people should be allowed to act according to their believes, rather than be obliged to follow laws dictated by the mayority. This is because he believes that, even though the majority is the strongest group, it does not mean that they always have the right point of view.
The term "vetted" means "to make a careful examination," or "to investigate someone thoroughly." It is commonly used to ensure someone is trustworthy for a job. When Whitehurst says that the candidates have already been "extremely vetted," it is implied that the candidates were investigated to a great extent.
