It is important to explain those long gaps to your potential employer, because they want to know what you were doing during that certain time frame.
They want to know if you weren't wasting your time doing nothing, and if you are trustworthy enough. But if you have personal reasons, like having a loved one in the hospital or health-related problems, they might be sympathetic and understand your situation.
But, they want to know if in the future, you are hired, if they can rely on you and trust you to do tasks without wasting time.
I hope this helps.

You did not provide the excerpt but in the end Jekyll was not able to permanently resist. It was implied that he was actually Hyde deep inside and that Hyde is the one who will overtake and he won't be able to come out again. In the end he dies as Hyde and people find out what happened out of letters that he sent while he was sane.
The right answer is the D: In order to illustrate how romantic love makes the world seem new. The author starts by lyrically describing the refreshing, bright, and regenerating effect of dew and dawn on nature (she uses terms such as <em>stars</em>, <em>jewels</em>, <em>bright </em>and <em>gem</em>) in order to compare it with the one that the love of his lover ("fresh as the dawn") has on her. That love, like the dew and the dawn, has made a path for her where everything along the way shines as she passes by, solely for her own pleasure. It is, therefore, this romantic love that makes her seeing the world new, full of light and delicacy.
