(a) What is incongruous about Smiley's betting on the health of Parson Walker's wife?

English
1 answer:
tino4ka555 [31]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

His bet, in addition to supporting the wife, is something he cannot predict.

Explanation:

Smiley bets against the health of Parson Walker's wife, which is already incongruous, because it makes him cheer against a person, wishing that he does not win the disease, that is, wishing that he die. In addition, he bets on something completely random that he has no control over, besides being completely irrelevant to him, since he won nothing by losing or winning the bet.

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Ice storms can be the most devastating of winter weather phenomena and are often the cause of automobile accidents, power outages and personal injury.

Explanation:

Ice storms can be the most devastating of winter weather phenomena and are often the cause of automobile accidents, power outages and personal injury. Ice storms result from the accumulation of freezing rain, which is rain that becomes super cooled and freezes upon impact with cold surfaces.

Freezing rain falls as fluid yet freezes on contact and turns into a strong. This turns into a layer of ice that covers any item underneath freezing, including trees, electrical cables, extensions and bridges. The ice adds weight to tree appendages and electrical cables.

A market economy is an economy where most resources are owned and controlled by individuals and are allocated through voluntary market transactions governed by the interaction of supply and demand.advantages: Competition leads to efficiency because businesses that have fewer costs are more competitive and make more money.
Innovation is encouraged because it provides a competitive edge and increases the chance for wealth.
A large variety of goods and services are available as businesses try to differentiate themselves in the market.
Economic activity is encouraged because you need money to live and need to engage in economic activity (through employment or self-employment) to make money.
disadvantages: Environmental damage results with no government regulations because it's usually more expensive to produce in an environmentally sound manner, which reduces profits.
There tends to be a reduced social safety net, including such programs as unemployment insurance, Social Security, and Medicare, because these programs are supported through taxation.
command economy is one in which a centralized government controls the means of production. The government determines what is produced, how it is produced and how it is distributed. Private enterprise does not exist in a command economy. The government employs all workers and unilaterally determines their wages and job duties. There are advantages and disadvantages of command economy structures. Command economy advantages include low levels of inequality and unemployment and the common good replacing profit as the primary incentive of production. Command economy disadvantages include lack of competition and lack of efficiency.
