Answer:

Jack is respectable and kind while Algernon is selfish and witty.

Explanation:

A central purpose of the scene between Algernon and Lane is to lay the foundation for the joke about the cucumber sandwiches, an incident that marks the first appearance of food as a source of conflict as well as a substitute for other appetites. Algernon has ordered some cucumber sandwiches especially for Lady Bracknell, but during the scene with Lane, he absentmindedly eats all the sandwiches himself. In this particular scene, food substitutes for the idea of sex. Algernon’s insatiable appetite, his preoccupation with food, and his habit of wantonly indulging himself politely suggest other forms of voraciousness and wanton self-indulgence. This idea becomes apparent in the early exchange between Algernon and Jack over the question of whether Jack should eat cucumber sandwiches or bread and butter. Here, Algernon interprets eating as a form of social, even sexual, presumption. Algernon can eat the cucumber sandwiches because he’s Lady Bracknell’s blood relation, but Jack, who hardly knows Lady Bracknell, should stay away from them. When Jack demonstrates too much enthusiasm for the bread and butter, Algernon reproaches him for behaving as though he were “married to [Gwendolen] already,” as though he had touched her in an aggressive or salacious manner.

What is Tenzing Norgay's viewpoint in "A Dream Comes True" about being one of the first people to reach the summit of Mount Ever
Mekhanik [1.2K]
I believe the correct answer is A. <span>Norgay thinks that his and Hillary's climb was a victory not only for themselves but for their nations and all men.

The point of Norgay's narrative is in supplementing Hillary's account, which said that Norgay had had many problems during the climb. According to Norgay, it really doesn't matter who made the climb first, because no one would have made it alone. It isn't a single victory of a single man, or even two men. It is a victory for the humanity.</span>
