Answer:

Joe Kanty had a legitimate reason to seek revenge in 'Spunk' while none of the characters from “A Good Man is Hard to Find” had any legitimate reason for vengeance.

Explanation:

Vengeance (the act of revenging or taking revenge) is an act of paying back someone, often in their own coin, for a perceived injustice or wrong done to the person seeking revenge.

The character 'Joe Kanty' in the novel 'Spunk' did have a legitimate reason to seek revenge on the main character of the novel 'Spunk Banks.'

Spank Banks, a fearless, courageous and heftily-built man who worked at a sawmill, had taken the wife of Joe Kanty from him, as was Bank's usual custom.

When Joe Kanty summoned the courage to confront Spunk Banks, Spunk shot Joe dead right in front of his wife, Lena; who despised her husband Joe anyway on account of his timidity. It is believed that Joe's spirit came back to take revenge on Spunk by pushing off a log of wood onto the cutting blade which severely injured him. Spunk later died of the injury wounds.

None of the characters in the book 'A Good Man Is Hard to Find' however, has any legitimate reason to seek revenge, even though Bailey's family was murdered by the Misfit and his henchmen after their car had an accident.

Nady [450]

Answer:

Critics say Microsoft's incredible two-decade run at the top of the computer industry has less to do with innovation than it does with bully tactics. But new research from Harvard Business School professors Marco Iansiti and Alan MacCormack suggests a different reason: the company's ability to spot technological trends and exploit key software technologies.

Perhaps no technology company outside of IBM has been able to keep on top of the industry as much as Microsoft. What's more, Bill Gates & Co. have achieved this success during times of incredible technological transformation, usually just the period when titans are vulnerable to being knocked off by disruptive technologies.

Which detail supports the inference that Holmes believes in the importance of reliable alliances when solving mysteries?
Sidana [21]

"Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Best of Sherlock Holmes" is a set of recounts about some of the most iconic cases that were solved by Sherlock Holmes. Holmes is obsessed with ascertaining the truth, and while his personality does not lend to partnership, he realizes that reliable alliances are crucial to his ability to uncover clues which he otherwise would not be able to obtain on his own.

In this one “A Scandal in Bohemia,” Holmes employs his most consistent partner, Dr. Watson. After entering Irene Adler’s house, he signals to Watson to drop in a smoke rocket through the window which allows him to determine Adler’s most prized possession which she reaches for when she believes a fire has started.

In “The Man with the Twisted Lip,” Watson finds that Holmes disguised in an opium den.

Something important to highlight is that Holmes understands that he cannot always form alliances with his detective identity and he must utilize disguises in order to gain the trust of others.

These are the alliances that are not always in a human form. In “The Adventure of Silver Blaze,” the case is broken open when Holmes realizes that the only reason the dog would not bark in the night is if the dog recognized the perpetrator, which immediately drastically narrows the suspect pool. In other cases, Holmes uses a hound in order to track scents.

Hope this helps.
