A deserted school: A <em><u>solitary</u></em> child <em><u>neglected</u></em> by his friends. I can only give the answer to this. There is no way to show that it is so. But you could look at the previous paragraph where Scrooge sees two people cross paths and wish each other a Merry Christmas. Right about now, Scrooge does not feel either Merry or Christmassy. What he does feel is the sight before him of a deserted School and a solitary and neglected child, which of course is himself. Does that not suggest loneliness?

Memories of childhood. No person my age ever forgets the movie <em><u>Treasure Island </u></em>and the remarkable frightening performance of Robert Newton as Long John. I walked around for months giving a poor imitation of his accent. It's a must see movie.
The paragraph you want is the line beginning "This was not the map we found in Billy Bones chest ... " The line you want is "Sharp as must have been his annoyance ..." He could control it. Silver could wait. There was time. No need to get upset. The real map would show.

They disappeared because the mist enclosed them. It was as though they were covered by an outer piece of clothing which made them invisible to the ordinary on looker. The answer is surrounded.

Explanation:
Conjunctions are words used to connect other words, phrases, or clauses. There are three main types of conjunctions:
- Coordinating conjunctions - used to connect two elements (words/phrases/clauses) of equal grammatical rank and importance (e.g. two independent clauses).
- Subordinating conjunctions - used to connected elements of unequal rank and importance (e.g. one independent and one subordinating clause).
- Correlative conjunctions - used in pairs to connect elements of equal importance (e.g. <em>both/and, </em><em>either/or</em><em>, neither/nor, not/but</em>).
Based on this information, we can conclude that the correlative conjunction in the given sentence is<em> either/or. </em>
In this play, the attorney is trying to find out what happened to Mr. Wright and how he died (apparently strangled, but suspected murdered). Mrs. Peters finds the bird, that was supposed to be in the bird cage, strangled. She interprets this as the preparation to the killing of Mr. Wright and hides the bird in a box. The fact that the ladies in the scene have agreed to not disclose the contents of the box and continue to hide it, let us know that the best answer here is option C.
