Answer:

c. Ms. Pugh has been through a lot.

Explanation:

In the short story "Ursula Pugh," the speaker/ narrator mentioned in the first paragraph about the protagonist Ursula Pugh. The short yet informative detail describes how Ms. Pugh had changed so drastically.

In that first paragraph, Ms. Pugh is described as someone who's been through a lot. The speaker reveals, <em>"At an earlier time in her life, Ursula Pugh was – before injuries, before a disastrous marriage, before the death of her beloved  sister – a glorious dancer."</em> The fact that the narrator uses <em>"was"</em> and <em>"at earlier times"</em> signifies that whatever Ms. Pugh was before, she no longer is now. And the <em>"injuries, ... disastrous marriage... death of her beloved sister"</em> are all hard times for Ms. Pugh.

Thus, the correct answer is option c.

In Angela’s Ashes, which sentence in the excerpt does the author most likely use to express humor? Question options: a) “‘Do you
mina [271]

Answer:

I believe the best option would be letter C) Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa.

Explanation:

"Angela's Ashes" is a memoir written by Irish author Frank McCourt. The book is known to be filled with humor and anecdotes of McCourt's childhood.

At a certain point, Frank is hospitalized. But, due to his love of literature, he is constantly trying to communicate with Patricia. She is at the hospital too, and she has books with poems that delight Frank. When he is about to find out what happened to the Highwayman and his lover, the nurse comes in and yells, "I told ye there was to be no talking between rooms. Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa." This line is quite humorous for the way it addresses people and diseases. It's as if people stopped being people and became the disease they had. Diseases don't talk; sick people do. But not to the nurse's eyes.
