The correct answer is D) There is no single topic sentence. a topic sentence is used to summarize what the writing is about, and there is no sentence that does that in this piece.
Here are two examples : '' So Carnehan loaded the mules with the rifles that was taken off the camels, and together we starts forward into those bitter cold mountainous parts, and never a road broader than the back of your hand.''
'' My eye could detect no failure in the disguises. The scene in the Serai attested that they were complete to the native mind. There was just the chance, therefore, that Carnehan and Dravot would be able to wander through Afghanistan without detection.''
The action of Carnehan preparing things for his journey show that they are taking this adventure seriously and truly wish to accomplish their goal of becoming kings. Although they had trials and tribulations to face, they are stepping up to the plate and conquering them.
The answer to these question is the Arctic Ocean
If you are referring to this point: Oscar
Wilde uses humor to critique society and show that there is too much concern
about coming from a proper family.
I believe the correct answer is: “To
be born, or at any rate bred, in a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not,
seems to me to display a contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life . .
.”
In his dramatic work “The Importance
of Being Earnest”, Oscar Wild often uses irony and humor to critique the norms
and “moral” of the society in Victorian era. One of the examples for that is
this line:
“To be born, or at any rate bred, in
a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt
for the ordinary decencies of family life . . .”
As it shows the needless concern of
the type of the bag Ernest was found in, but which indicate the wealth of the
family to Lady Bracknell. Ernest states that there is no contempt for the
ordinary decencies of family life when you are born in a hand-bag, no matter if
it was large, black leather hand-bag, with handles to it or not.
