Answer:
A. The reader learns that she is confident and composed which makes her appear credible.
Explanation:
Saki's short story "The Open Window" is about a character named Framton Nuttel who had gone to his new neighbor's house to be introduced. And while waiting for the lady of the house, he was told a rather ghastly story by the niece Vera, which was in fact, just a lie.
Through her narration of how her aunt keeps the window open in anticipation of the arrival of her husband and brothers from their hunting, Vera managed to 'horrify' Framton. So, when the hunting party arrived, Framton dashed out of the house, which Mrs. Sappleton admits <em>"One would think he had seen a ghost"</em>. And Vera's declaration of how it must have been the spaniel that led Mr. Framton rushing out of the house shows how self-possessed she is and also contributes to the reader's understanding of her character. She finds joy in the scene and seems to be enjoying it. And <u>her confident and composed nature at the scene shows her self-possessed nature.</u>
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
I don't understand this question, is it true or false?
Jimmy dugan is talking about the prevalence of it for the fact that they use it in the game
Explanation:
Chewing tobacco was used by lots of ball players, as in baseball and it is used primarily for stimulation as most players learn it through the culture of playing the game to chew tobacco.
Chewing keeps saliva in the mouth with which they can moisten their gloves and the ball. It also helps keeping the mouth wet and keeping the person focused on the game as any with the habit would say.
This is why many players used to use Tobacco and even Jimmy does as he would later succumb to it.
