Read the excerpt from "The Lady Maid's Bell." But that wasn’t the only queer thing in the house. The very next day I found out t

hat Mrs. Brympton had no nurse; and then I asked Agnes about the woman I had seen in the passage the afternoon before. Agnes said she had seen no one, and I saw that she thought I was dreaming. To be sure, it was dusk when we went down the passage, and she had excused herself for not bringing a light; but I had seen the woman plain enough to know her again if we should meet. I decided that she must have been a friend of the cook’s, or of one of the other women servants: perhaps she had come down from town for a night’s visit, and the servants wanted it kept secret. Some ladies are very stiff about having their servants’ friends in the house overnight. At any rate, I made up my mind to ask no more questions. Which statement describes a gothic element in this excerpt that reflects a social attitude of Wharton’s time?

Answer:

<u>The following statement describes a Gothic element in the excerpt that reflects a social attitude of Wharton's time:</u>

The narrator feels inadequate when she reports seeing a supernatural being and nobody believes her.

Explanation:

In the short-story written by author Edith Wharton and called "The Lady Maid's Bell" there are elements of Gothic literature introduced in the plot-line, that at the same time help to reflect a social attitude of the time. When Alice tells Agnes about the strange woman she saw the day before in the house, she is responded with disbelief about the whole situation. This strange, and certainly supernatural event that Alice had witnessed, is not well received by the people that live with her, and their disbelief makes Alice to feel inadequate and to try to find a logical explanation for what she knows she saw. The Gothic element of something supernatural is also linked with the social environment of the time, that is characterized by disbelief.

Answer:

An invoice is a bill made by a supplier that lists the services or goods provided and their cost. Invoices are composed of the supplier company’s identity (such as a logo or name), the supplier company’s address and contact information, the invoice title, reference number, and date, the client company’s name and address, the due date of the payment, notes, list of items and their prices, remarks, and a thank you note.

I created an invoice for my company—ABC Electronics Inc. which will be sent to my client—The Blogger Cove. I used Microsoft Word to create my invoice. I followed these steps to create the invoice:

I placed my company’s name, logo, address, and contact information on the top of the page. I also inserted a table with two columns and one row. In the left cell, I inserted the company logo. In the right cell, I inserted the address and contact information. I did not leave a border around the table.

Below the table, I typed the details about the invoice, the reference number, and the invoice date.

Then, I inserted a table with two columns and one row. In the left cell, I added the name of the client’s company. In the right cell, I added the payment details. I wrote the payment details in a bold font and did not leave a border around the table.

Just below the table I added a section named Notes to add specific comments about the deal.

Next, I inserted a table with the number of required columns and rows. For example, the table may need four columns for the titles: item, quantity, unit cost, and total. I shaded the rows in different colors to distinguish them from one another. I used a larger font for the total amount to be paid.

Further, I typed the details about the methods of payment in the remarks section below the table of items.

I typed a thank you note in the footer of the invoice page.

Which type of criminal intelligence do you think poses the highest risk of civil rights infringement? Why?
Murljashka [212]

I think Intelligence itself is a high risk of CR infringement........coz it requires running informants, wiretapping, trying to keep tabs on everyone, and threatening to charge them with critical offenses if they never turn states evidence. also , you need ability to monitor and interdict your operations.

Answer this and tell me why you believe it’s the answer.

<h2>Answer: D</h2>

                                                  Explanations:

A. Is angry that the coffee is too weak. I don't believe this is the answer, because, "blinked red eyes at the weak brew of coffee" Isn't the main idea or key detail, and isn't important at all.

B. Doesn't appreciate the effort of the narrator to make breakfast. Not really the answer, because if the mom didn't really appreciate the breakfast, it would've shown more evidence for that. Besides, some people wake up cranky ;w;

C. Is frustrated that she had been woken up by the narrator. No. Nowhere in the second paragraph it says that the mom was woken up by the narrator.

D. Feels very tired even after a good night's sleep. Yes. I believe this is the answer because in paragraph 1, the narrator made sure the TV was low so the mom could sleep. In paragraph 2, It's obvious that the mom feels very tired because of these clues: Yawned a hat-sized yawn, and blinked red eyes.
