1. c) Forced

When one is completely baffled about something, one may feel intuitively forced to scratch our head. “Forced,” then, is a word that can replaced “fain.”

2.  c) villainous

The blank needs to be filled in with a word that tells us more about the noun “intent,” in other words, it needs to be completed with an adjective. From all choices, “villainous” is the only adjective.

3. d) Attractive

The excerpt begins showing us the negative qualities of Mr. Cruncher's: it tells us that they are not in a savory neighborhood and that they are extremely small, but then it adds a “but” to contrast that and talk about a good feature: they were very decently kept. Such a context helps us infer that even though the apartments are decently kept, they are not in an attractive neighborhood.

Answer: 1. c) forced, 2. c) villainous, 3. d) attractive.

Explanation: In "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens, based on the context, fain most likely means <u><em>forced</em></u>. To fain means to be constrained, compelled or obliged.

The form that the word "villain" would best be used in the sentence below is "<u><em>villainous</em></u>", which means an evil intent.

In this sentence from "A Tale of Two Cities", based on the context, a savoury neighbourhood is an attractive neigbourhood. Not savoury is not pleasant or not socially acceptable. This sentence states that "Mr. Cruncher's apartments were NOT in a savoury neighbourhood" so savoury means <u><em>attractive</em></u>.

How important it is to educate your child in your country, also what is the difference between educating abroad and in your coun
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

If you are asking how well recognized and concerned your country of residence is with education I'd answer that in all first-world countries it is seen as a symbol of pride and is very much so important. If you are asking if it is regarded as being more important to educate your child in your own country as opposed to another, I would say this greatly depends on perspective and personal values.

Explanation:

This is a very intriguing question that should be asked by everyone that has children of their own.

In my own situation, I was educated from preschool up till highschool in the United States as I am American but since had pursued university overseas in France. A newer trend in France is to take the globally free education and to make it very expensive for those that are not a French National. The Government reasons that by doing so foreigners will understand the value of education and will not view their previously free courses as being of lesser quality than those taken in the United States for thousands of dollars.

The Foster Portfolio (Kurt Vonnegut, 1951)
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The Narrator didn't believe Herbert at first because Herbert appeared to be very poor, and he thought he was not going to make any money off him.

Explanation:

The Foster Portfolio is about an investment broker who was called by Herbert Foster to look at his portfolio and manage it.

He went to Herbert's house for that purpose but was initially disappointed with the general lack of affluence of the household and its occupants.

According to the narrator "my business is handling other people’s money, and I have a great respect for money" and that he is "a salesman of good advice for rich people", so he couldn't see how he could help a man who appeared to be neither rich nor to have any money to speak of.

That was why he didn't beleive Herbert was in ned of his services.
