When Jack is on the trail, he sees some pig poop. The narrator says that Jack "bent down to [it] as though he loved [it]" (111).

That's kind of gross. What do you make of it? Can you think of any way in which pig poop, hunting for it, and being fascinated by it might be symbolic, or at least a clue as to what Jack is really all about?

Answer and Explanation:

1. I agree that this is disgusting, but it is an important element for large hunters, as feces can indicate whether the animal is far or close, making it easier for an experienced hunter, like Jack, to find his prey more easily.

2. Pig poop, hunting and fascination can be symbolic and represent an obsession with something. This obsession is capable of provoking strange and not at all admirable behaviors like Jack's behavior of appreciating pig feces as if he loves them.

All of these.

Explanation:

Victorian Era was a period when Queen Victoria was on the throne of England and ruling during the industrialization period of England. The Industrial Revolution began in the second half of the eighteenth century in Europe.

During this era, magazines, novels, periodicals, etc became so popular because of all the reasons mentioned in the question. The dawn of industrial revolution gave humans a leisured time.

Why does Sherlock Holmes conclude that the unknown visitor to his rooms is absent-minded? A. The visitor's stick has tooth marks
Valentin [98]

Answer:C. The visitor left his stick behind.

Explanation:

Your question is referring to the excerpt from ''The Hound of the Baskervilles''  by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in which Sherlock is describing his visitor at the beginning of the first chapter.

''Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who was usually very late in the mornings, save upon those not infrequent occasions when he stayed up all night, was seated at the breakfast table. I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before.''

After that, Sherlock picks up the stick and read what is written on it and then he is asking Watson about his opinion on it.

He was considered as the absent-minded because he left something with his name and evidence that is showing that he was there. If he was aware, he would not do that. In that way, Sherlock got all information about him.

What does NOT describe America following the abolition of slavery
Montano1993 [528]

I would say that being anti-racist does not describe America after the abolition of slavery. For decades, up until maybe the 60's African American's were mistreated with things like Jim Crow Laws, that were stopped some time in 1964. While this had ended segregation it most definitely did not end racism. Even now hate groups, like the KKK, are very prominent in America, with over 1,000 recorded in 2018.
