Answer:

A. Be careful and alert.

Explanation:

In Sherwood Anderson's short story "Departure", George Willard was on his way out of the town to try his luck in the big city. And by taking the long process of detailing the departure of George, the narrator also seems to suggest the fact that young people leaving the town was nothing unusual.

In paragraph 9, George recalled his father's words to <em>"be a sharp one"</em>. He can clearly remember his father telling him to be careful and not lose his money. The father's words mean that George should be careful and alert of the people around him during his train journey and also in his start of a new life chasing his dreams in the city.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

A claim is generally not considered credible if
Triss [41]
Credible means easy to believe. If something is likely; why should it not be credible?

also if it comes from a credible source, I would assume that it's credible.

Now, we're left with the choice between interested and disinterested party: among the two the interested party is more likely to make false claims, as they can benefit from them: so I think that answer <span>d.<em> the claimant is an interested party</em>  is the correct one. </span>

Which vocabulary word goes with edge and why?gnarly rivulet cascade precipice
Misha Larkins [42]

The word that goes, or better expressed, is a synonym for edge is:  precipice because it has both the literal and metaphorical connotations just as edge does. It means a very steep or overhanging place, like in a cliff, and it also means to be at the brink of a situation just like edge.

The other words do not match both or any of the definitions of edge.
