Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
She ran to the door, but her husband was before her, and catching her by the arm, held her tightly.
"What are you going to do?" he whispered hoarsely.
"It's my boy; it's Herbert!" she cried, struggling mechanically. "I forgot it was two miles away. What are you holding me for? Let go. I must open the door.
"For God's sake don't let it in," cried the old man, trembling.
"You're afraid of your own son," she cried, struggling. "Let me go. I'm coming, Herbert; I'm coming."

How does Mr. White’s reaction to Herbert’s coming home compare to that of his wife’s?

He is thrilled, but she is nervous.
He is horrified, but she is excited.
He is calm, but she is angry.
He is sorrowful, but she is happy.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Second Option

Explanation: He is horrified, but she is excited.

I've read this short story before in school and saw it performed at a play. After Mr and Mrs White's son dies, they use the Monkey paw to wish him back to life. But their son (Hilbert) is something dark and unnatural and is not the son they raised. But Mrs White is excited to see Hilbert no matter what he comes back as while Mr White is horrified and knows that whatever is behind that door, will not hug them with open arms.

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.
Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining.
Then we put up our masts, hauled sail, and rested,
letting the steersmen and the breeze take over.

he was never satisfied/ he was one of the richest men in the world

Answers

Answer:

He was never satisfied even though he was one of the richest men in the world.

Explanation:

"Even though" is a subordinating conjunction that is used to introduce a statement that is surprising or unexpected. It is also used to present a stronger emphasis on the concerned statements.

The given sentence presents two parts or qualities of a person. The first states how he's never satisfied while the second states the contrast with the first.

Therefore, using "even though" in between the two statements will present the contrasting yet unexpected statement about the person.

In using the subordinating conjunction "even though", the statement that "he's never satisfied" is contrasted with the other statement "he's one of the richest men in the world". His richness does not seem to make him satisfied, which seems unexpected, in most people's opinion as we tend to think money can make us happy.

Thus, the correct sentence structure will become-

He was never satisfied even though he was one of the richest men in the world.
