Why do the guests believe the colonel's argument was right?
The Dinner Party is a fictional short story written by Mona Gardner. In India, a colonial officer and his wife host a dinner party and invite army officers and government attaches along with their wives, and an American naturalist. A spirited discussion sparks up between a young girl and the colonel, in which the girl believes that woman have outgrown the fright-from-seeing-a-mouse era, but the colonel denies that and says that men have more control than women in every situation. Then, the American notices that the hostess is very still and summons a native boy over to her, who then leaves the room in a hurry and places a bowl of milk on the veranda outside of the room. Knowing at that point that there is a cobra under the table, he creates a game for the guests to see who has control by staying still for three hundred seconds. When he starts counting down the last twenty seconds to finish the game, the cobra emerges from under the table, going towards the bowl of milk outside, and the American locks it out of the room. After the ordeal, the American asks the hostess, Mrs. Wynnes, how she knew that the cobra was in the room, and she replies with, "because it was crawling across my foot."
Characters
There are a few characters in this short story. These characters are:
The American naturalist; is the one who knew that there was a cobra in the room and made up the game to keep the guests from getting bitten by the cobra.
The colonial officer (Mr. Wynnes); is the host of the dinner party and opposes the young girl's statement, saying that men have more control then women.
Mrs. Wynnes (the hostess); is the one who demonstrated that women can have the same amount of control as men when the cobra crawled across her foot.
Lastly, the young girl; is the one who brought up the conversation of women's control.
Setting
The setting of this story takes place in India (states it in the first sentence), in the late evening/night (takes place during dinnertime), and takes place in the early 1900's (they had a servant who was a young boy).
Conflict
The conflict of this story is that there is a cobra (antagonist) in the dinner room, which no one is aware of. So, the American must devise a way to keep all of the guests calm and still so that the cobra does not bite any of them, while also trying to get the cobra to go to the bowl of milk outside on the veranda.
Conclusion
The conclusion to this story is that while all of the guests were playing the American's game, when the American started to count down the final twenty seconds, the cobra comes out from under the dinner table, goes to the bowl of milk on the veranda, and the American locks it out of the room.
Irony
Within this story, the author used situational irony (When what happens is different from what was expected). She does this by opposing what the colonel said, which was that men have an ounce more of control in any situation than women, so when Mrs. Wynnes told the American that the cobra crawled across her foot, it showed that women can have as much control as men in the same situation, opposing the colonel's statement.
Theme
The theme of this story is control in situations of both men and women. This story tells us that in every situation we are placed in, we must take control of it and make the best of it.

How Does Santa Claus Found the Poor-house
How does the scene with the injured dog contribute
to the development of the theme of the story?
Answer:
it contributes with the dog getting better.
Explanation:
In literature, the theme of a story essentially speaks to the heart or contributes to highlighting the primary elements of the story.
Santa Clause is usually associated with bringing gifts. With this basic understanding at the back of one's mind, the reader is forced to seek the connection between the injured Newfoundland dog and the poor Gobaly whose background had been laid out in the introductory paragraphs of the novel.
The resolution between the injury to the dog, the internal argument in Gobaly's mind of whether or not to return the dog, and the gift that Santa Clause gifts to Gobaly is found in the offer which the doctor makes to Gobaly for him to become his apprentice.
Hence, the dog and its injury become very instrumental in laying out the theme of the story as a strong element...almost as strong as the main character Gobaly himself.

In at least fifty words, explain the listening style(s) you would use, and why, when listening to a friend share about a problem. Remember that your thinking process is important as well as the goal you have in mind while listening to your friend.
Answer:
The listening style chosen is the person-oriented style.
Explanation:
The person-oriented listening style is one where an individual is interested in what the speaker of a message has to say. In this case, the listener does not make judgments or analyze technical concepts, but is interested in knowing what the speaker is feeling and what he thinks about a certain situation.
This is the most appropriate style to use when a friend is telling you about a problem, as it allows the listener to understand what is going on, how it affects the friend and how he can help him.

Find the solution to the following system using substitution or elimination y = -4x + 9 y = 3x - 5 A. (1.5) B. (1-2) C. (2.1) D. (14.373
Answer:
D. (14, 37)
Explanation:
Given the following data;
y = -4x + 9 ..........equation 1
y = 3x - 5 ............equation 2
We would solve the linear equation by using the substitution method;
Substituting equation 1 into equation 2, we have;
-4x + 9 = 3x - 5
-4x - 3x = -5 - 9
-x = - 14
x = 14
Now to find the value of y;
From equation 2
y = 3x - 5
Substituting the value of "x" into the equation, we have;
y = 3(14) - 5
y = 42 - 5
y = 37

Who was Mary Cassatt?Mary Cassatt is well-known for her Impressionist paintings of everyday women from the late 1800s. These are her most well-known works.
The Impressionist art movement was defined by a group of iconic 19th-century artists who painted scenes of everyday life with small, vibrant brush strokes.
Softground etching and drypoint were two of Mary Cassatt's favorite printmaking techniques. She would use softground etching to lay a pencil drawing over an acid-resistant wax-coated copper plate.
She'd then retrace the drawing, pushing down into the waxed surface to reach the metal.
Vanessa Wright expresses her opinion that Cassatt's ambitions were admirable as she describes Cassatt's perseverance in the face of adversity.
Thus, the correct option is D.
