Della is sad that she didn't have enough money saved to get gifts; since it says "...and the next day would be Christmas," this implies it was important to the plot or story. The answer should be D.

If this is an excerpt from a story, I wouldn’t be of much help. But from a layman's perspective, it seems like the character is attempting to please the failed humorist or he or she would have been frank. This in turn may have triggered a chain reaction, prompting the humorist to continue with his jokes which would have further affected the character. He or she is also giving the former a false sense of happiness and appreciation.
This passage may not affect the whole story in a remarkably discernible manner, but it definitely proves the character's penchant for politeness. And that may be be a deciding factor in his or her further decisions that ultimately define the plot of the story.

Choose the sentence that correctly uses the word time-consuming.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

A. Sewing can be a time-consuming task.

Explanation:

Time-consuming means something that takes a lot of time to do, the only answer choice that makes sense is A. If John finished his homework in 10 minutes, it could not have been time-consuming. A clock is an inanimate object, it cannot be time-consuming, if she has a party to get to, she probably wouldn't want to have homework that takes time to do.
