John was running late as usual. No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't seem to be on time. He had already been late for w

ork twice this week. He couldn't afford to be late again.
John hurried through his morning shower. He combed his hair and brushed his teeth as quickly as he could. Then he ran to his bedroom, threw on some clothes and headed downstairs. It was 8:18. He had four minutes to get to the bus stop.

He bent down to tie his shoelaces, and that's where his troubles began. Whenever John tried to do things too fast, he made mistakes. He tied a thick knot. Then he had to spend precious seconds undoing it and retying it. When he finally finished, it was 8:20. He had only two minutes to catch his bus!

John sprinted out the door and ran toward the bus stop. Normally he took three or four minutes to get there. He clenched his fists and ran as fast as he could.

Answer:

The Answer has to be C

Explanation:

The reason the answer is C is Because the story explains John is always late and usually does not arrive on time. this means that John is rushing to get to the bus stop in two minutes, while he gets there in four minutes, he will likely be late for the bus.

Answer:

uh

Explanation:

Something this complicated and intricate is hard to find the message of, but, the first paragraph is saying that we need to stop the idea of women needing to be free of any small problems, and i think the second one means that the large egos of some men are due so because the societal standard and idea of what a manly man should be requires them to act this way to be seen as a man.

Note: My translation is not guaranteed to be correct. This is just the best I can do.

Why does the quote indicate about john proctors character
LiRa [457]

Answer:

  • This is a great line and sequence from this play. If you haven't already seen the film version with Daniel Day-Lewis, please do so. Day-Lewis delivers the above line in such a way that it is the part that I remember the most.
  • At this point in the play, John Proctor has already admitted to the court that he committed adultery with Abigail Williams. In essence, he has intentionally hurt his reputation in the community. Many people looked up to Proctor as a good, strong, and moral man, but the adultery will taint that image.  
  • The court asks John to sign his name and admit to witchcraft, and John refuses to let the court keep the paper that he signed. John is okay with his reputation being hurt because he was trying to save others, but he is not okay with his name (and his family's name) being tainted by...
