The hurricane season officially got under way Friday, with forecasters ready to deploy new tools to improve on last year's botch

ed predictions. Although a horrendous season had been forecast, no major hurricane hit the U.S. coast in 2000, and that might have contributed to a false sense of security by many coastal residents, a new Red Cross survey reveals. The survey found that only 52 percent of coastal residents in the states from North Carolina to Texas report having an evacuation plan.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

The play would not have a comic tone.

During the fire incidence at the hotel, the employees and guests at the hotel would react and panic and would immediately look for an escape route under normal circumstances. The characters will not be interested in having a calm conversation or waste any more time but will immediately call the fire service for help.

The calm reaction of the characters to the escalated fire ready to burn down the hotel gives the play a comic tone. The play will lose its humorous effect if the characters panicked.

Alika [10]

Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually "to fake."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that one of the meanings of the verb to affect is to feign, which can be translated as to pretend or to give a false appearance of something. If the character was trying to "conceal certain inconvenient emotions" which, nevertheless, "seemed inclined to assert themselves" by affecting high spirits, he was, therefore, faking those high spirits, in order to hide his true feelings from the people who had just arrived.
