In the play Everyman, what is common to Discretion, Strength, Five Wits, and Beauty?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The correct answer is B) They all forsake him on his final journey.

Explanation:

At the beginning of the play "Everyman", the audience is told it will see our - all of mankind's - life and death. God then appears and complains that humans are only worried about wordly riches instead of serving Him. God sends Death to warn Everyman - an allegorical character representing mankind - that he will die and that his good and bad deeds will be taken into account.

Desperate, Everyman seeks for company. However, he is abandoned by all those he approches. When he asks Good Deeds to accompany him, he finds out she can't even walk because she has been weakened by his sins. Advised by Knowledge, Everyman confesses his sins, which makes Good Deeds strong enough to accompany him.

Good Deeds, however, is not the only one. Everyman is also in the company of Discretion, Strength, Five Wits, and Beauty. Nonetheless, as soon as he begins to die, Discretion, Strength, Five Wits, and Beauty forsake him one by one. In death, Everyman can only take his Good Deeds with him.

In the end, a doctor appears to give the epilogue. He tells the audience to forsake Discretion, Strength, Five Wits, and Beauty since they will forsake everyone when the time to die comes.

What inference can be made about Mr. Dwerrihouse based on how he is introduced and his
marshall27 [118]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

What inference can be made about Mr. Dwerrihouse based on how he is introduced and his character is developed in the text? Support your answer with details from the text.

I now recognized my companion. I recognized him from the moment when he removed his hat and uncovered the lofty, furrowed, and somewhat narrow brow beneath. I had met him, as I distinctly remembered, some three years before, at the very house for which, in all probability, he was now bound, like myself. His name was Dwerrihouse, he was a lawyer by profession, and, if I was not greatly mistaken, was first cousin to the wife of my host. I knew also that he was a man eminently well−to−do", both as regarded his professional and private means. The Jelfs entertained him with that sort of observant courtesy which falls to the lot of the rich relation, the children made much of him, and the old butler, albeit somewhat surly "to the general", treated him with deference. I thought, observing him by the vague mixture of lamplight and twilight, that Mrs. Jelf's cousin looked all the worse for the three years' wear and tear which had gone over his head since our last meeting. He was very pale, and had a restless light in his eye that I did not remember to have observed before. The anxious lines, too, about his mouth were deepened, and there was a cavernous, hollow look about his cheeks and temples which seemed to speak of sickness or sorrow. He had glanced at me as he came in, but without any gleam of recognition in his face. Now he glanced again, as I fancied, somewhat doubtfully. When he did so for the third or fourth time I ventured to address him.

Answer and Explanation:

Based on the text above, we can infer that Mr. Dwerrihouse is not in the prime of his health and is old, tired and nervous, anxious. This is noticeable through the statement about the appearance of Mr. Dwerrihouse that the narrator presents, where we can conclude that this is not the appearance of a healthy person and that he is completely calm.

The way Mr. Dwerrihouse looks at the narrator, also allows us to approach that he will not have a friendly character, but distant, cold and often withdrawn.
