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.
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.

Explanation:
which journal would you record Credit note
Answer:
Sales Journal = For sellerPurchases Journal = For buyerExplanation:
A credit note is issued by a supplier to a purchaser when the purchaser returns goods back to the supplier. The note is essentially an acknowledgment that goods have been returned to the seller.
The seller would therefore record this in the Sales Journal to show that the sales has been reduced by the goods that were returned to them with the relevant entry being a debit.
The buyer would also record this in their purchases journal to show that their purchases have decreased and the relevant entry will be a credit.
Historic Inventions
by Rupert S. Holland (adapted excerpt)
Humphrey Davy invented the safety-lamp that helped protect miners from the perils of flammable fire-damp1.
Explosions of coal-gas were only too common in the mines of England, leading to detrimental effects on those who labored underground. The biggest mine-owners met to see whether some protection against such accidents could not be devised. After much discussion, they appointed a committee to call on Sir Humphrey Davy and asked him to investigate the possibilities for them.
He took up the question, experimented with fire-damp, and found that it was in reality light carburetted hydrogen. He visited many mines and took into careful consideration the conditions under which the men worked. For months he investigated and experimented, and in 1815, he constructed the safety-lamp. This was an oil lamp, which had a chimney or cage of wire gauze that kept the flame of the lamp from passing through and igniting the fire-damp outside. The cage allowed air to pass and light to escape. Even if the combustion of the fire-damp caused the wire gauze to become red hot, it was still efficient as a safety-lamp.
1. a combustible gas especially methane

our situation is ____ to the problems the warehouse staff dealt with last year. analogous, opposite, incongruous, conducive, symmetrical
Question:
Our situation is ____ to the problems the warehouse staff dealt with last year.
A) Analogous
B) Opposite
C) Incongruous
D) Conducive
E) Symmetrical
Answer:
The correct answer is A) Analogous
Explanation:
The question seems to be missing a few instructions. However, in the absence of that, the most logical approach is to match the missing word with the best option indicated.
Of all the options given, Analogous which also means Similar or related fits the sentence the most. And here is why:
In the sentence, the object is the situation. Another word for that is the circumstance, state, or condition. It is being juxtaposed with the problems that happened in a previous time period.
Words that make such comparisons usually go in line with the preposition "to".
The word after the missing word is "to". If we inserted all the synonyms indicated above, we would find that they fit neatly.
For example:
Our situation is similar to...Our situation is analogous to...our situation (or condition) is related to...Cheers
You do not need to use complete sentences in the body section of the speech outline.
a. True
b.False
Answer:
b. False.
Explanation:
Preparing a speech outline does not necessarily mean one can forgo the 'normal' ways or patterns of speeches. This means that even though it is a preparation of a speech outline, a person must use complete sentences rather than phrases.
Using complete sentences in the preparation of the outlines of a speech will help the person judge and see if there is coherence in the prepared speech. It presents the speaker to find the mistakes and correct whatever is necessary. This will also make sure that the intended speech does not have any issues before it is given in front of an audience.
Thus, the correct answer is false.

For the First Time Ever, You Can Now Hear What Alexander Graham Bell Sounded Like
Listen to the voice of the man who brought our modern age of long-distance communication into being.
On March 10, 1876, Alexander Graham Bell spoke nine words that heralded our modern age of rapid long-distance communication. "Mr. Watson -- come here -- I want to see you." And then, as soon as he spoke the words, they were gone.
This was a time before recorded sound was common, and any momentous series of sound waves were preserved only in memory and text. When you think of Kennedy imploring Americans to ask what they can do for their country, you can hear his voice -- its cadences, its timbre -- in your head. But for the greatest spoken words of the 19th century (or any time preceding), we've got to use our imaginations. (This is, of course, why so many Americans were bewildered by Daniel Day Lewis's interpretation of Lincoln's voice, even though it was recreated with the greatest attention to historical detail.)
But there are sound recordings that survive from as far back as the 1860s, '70s, and '80s. It's just that, until very recently, they were unplayable. We no longer had the right tools, and even if we had, playing them would ruin the wax cylinders or fragile records upon which the sounds were stored. But over the past few years, physicists have developed tools for creating 3D scans of the old records and converting those scans into playable audio files. Last year, they released the oldest playable American recording, a series of sounds from an 1878 demonstration of sound-recording technology in St. Louis. In it, you can hear laughter, a song, and some counting, all spoken into the world by people of another century.
But until today, the voice that spoke that age of far-traveling sound into being has remained unknown -- no living person had ever heard it. What did he sound like? "Did Bell speak with a Scottish burr? What was the pitch and depth of the voice with which he loved to belt out ballads and music hall songs?" Bell biographer Charlotte Gray asks in Smithsonian. He had lived in England, Canada, the eastern United States. He summered in Nova Scotia where people spoke Gaelic. How did all these influences combine in his speech? And now Gray has her answer. The Smithsonian has released audio recovered from a wax and cardboard disc dated April 15, 1885. In it, you can clearly hear the inventor speak the words: "Hear my voice -- Alexander Graham Bell."
Who is the voice referred to in the above paragraph?
A. Samuel Morse
B. Alexander Graham Bell
C. George Washington
D. Abraham Lincoln
Answer:
the answer is C : Alexander Graham Bell
