Answer:
E. All of the above
Explanation:
According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:
A. Jim’s mother lacks religious faith, whereas the school book mothers are pious.
B. She is neither loving nor devoted to her son, whereas the school book mothers are.
C. She is healthy, whereas the school book mothers are always dying of consumption.
D. She physically hits him, whereas the school book mothers are gentle and affectionate.
E. All of the above
This question refers to the story "The Story of the Bad Little Boy" by Mark Twain. In this story, Twain talks about a boy who was very bad, but who never felt guilty, received a punishment or was particularly unhappy. According to Twain, this shows that the moral stories that we find in "Sunday-school books" do not reflect reality.
One of the elements in the boy's life (Jim) that did not resemble those stories was his mother. Jim's mother was not a sick and pious woman like those often found in such stories. Instead, she was tough, healthy and "stout." Moreover, she was not religious, and she did not worry about Jim in any way. Instead, she cared little for him and physically hit him, spanking him and boxing his ears.
Answer:
wants Rainsford to survive the hunt
Explanation:
In this short excerpt, it shows a suggestion, friendly request, and advice. This could be helpful for Rainsford. Even though, the general is cynical and makes fun of the accident he knows that this is useful and needs to tell him to avoid this place.
He describes this place with its name and gives a hint that it is not a place to go. His story has an idea that Death Swamp is a bad place, not safe for people and animals. This is his contribution to a dialog with Mr. Rainsford.

The children must hide their love from their families. In the end, the children die as a result of their love. The love between the children is forbidden.
In "Pyramus and Thisbe" the parents simply do not want their children falling in love with each other. We do not know the reason for this and are not told of any feud or conflict. This means that any option that has to do with a conflict between the families should not be chose. Since the children have to hide their love from the families in both pieces of literature, it is safe to say that love between them is forbidden. In the end, Pyramus and Thisbe, Romeo and Juliet die because of their love for each other.
