Answer:
B.
Explanation:
All other options reveal a negative attitude or an exception that aligns with the topic sentence except B, which instead gives a positive attitude. All other options state that you don't like it or have a problem with it and thus rhymes with the topic sentence except B. So B is not a good supporting sentence for the example paragraph.

How does the author's choice to reveal the woman's blindness in the last paragraph contribute to the overall story?
Answer and Explanation:
This question refers to the short story "The Mouse", by Saki.
The main character is Theodoric Voler, a man who has been raised in a most overprotected manner. He finds the world to be full of annoyances and disturbances.
The theme of this story revolves around Theodoric's self-centeredness. He is so busy worrying about himself, about his image in front of others, and about his comfort that he fails to notice and pay attention to other people's sufferings and misfortunes. That theme is developed at the climax of the story. It turns out that the woman who is sharing the train carriage with Theodoric is blind. He had been utterly embarrassed throughout their trip because he needed to half undress in order to get rid of a mouse that was crawling under his clothes.
Theodoric suffered terribly, to the point of shivering, imagining what that woman could be thinking of him. Too concerned about his own petty problems, he failed to realize her blindness. The author only reveals her blindness at the end of the story, which means readers have suffered all the while with Theodoric, wondering what that woman's reaction would be. By being told about her blindness in the last paragraph, readers are left surprised and maybe even a bit upset at Theodoric and all his unnecessary worry.

A text that lists benefits of owning a dog from least Importance to greatest importance uses___________ order.
1. transitional
2.logical
3. chronological
4. spatial
5. climatic
Answer:
5. climatic
Explanation:
Arranging things in a sequence, where each things precedes or succedes another is called ordering. Ordering can be done in several ways, depending on ordering criteria.
For example, we can arrange events chronologically, which means we arrange them based on the time period when they occured; from the most to the least recent event, or vice versa.
Spatial arrangement means that we list things based on their position in space; from right to left, or from top to bottom.
Logical order is when we place things in a manner that each one logically follows the previous.
However, in this example, we have climatic order, which means that things are arranged in an order from the least important to the most important, making the final thing on the list the most important, or strongest, or the best.
Answer:
climatic
