What does the narrator allude to at the end of this sentence from Mark Twain's "The 1,000,000 Bank-Note"? "So I loved her all the more, seeing she could be so cheerful when there wasn't anything to be cheerful about; for I might soon need that kind of wife, you know, the way things looked." A) the possibility of Adams having to leave the country to escape his creditors B) the possibility of requiring a wife who could match Adams social standards C) the possibility of Adams failure and having a lot of debt to repay D) the possibility of Adams taking up permanent residence in London

Answers

The correct answer is the following: option B. At the end of the sentence provided in the question the narrator alludes to the possibility of requiring a wife who could match Adam social standards.

"The Million Pound Bank-Note" is a short story written by American author Mark Twain that was first published in 1893. It tells the story  of an American man named Henry who is poor and now living in he city of London. Henry Adams is given an envelope with a 1.000.000 pound bank-note that in the case that he would try to exchange it in the bank, would probably send him to prison. Still Henry  starts to see how by having that bank-note in his power, people are assured that he is wealthy and therefore he can live in the city as a rich man, without ever spending the 1.000.000 pound bank-note.

This is why the narrator is alluding that Adams requires a wife who could match Adam social standards. She can be cheerful in moments there was no reason to be cheerful at all, and Adams knows that his social status can suddenly drastically change, and he needs someone like her by his side.

In the case of the US patients with HIV are part of a Nation HIV/AIDS strategy that guarantees access to treatments for people with this virus and attempts to reduce the transmission of the virus. Including treatments and other medical measures to avoid babies from HIV parents to be infected during pregnancy and labor, which means in the U.S. people with HIV are allowed to have children and the state guarantees this right and the necessary medical measures to avoid a possible transmission. Thus, the right a person with HIV has in the U.S. is the right to be a parent and to receive adequate treatment for this condition.

The correct answer is A. The right to be a parent. Babies from parents with HIV can be born without the HIV virus, but it does require a different type of a birth procedure so as to prevent infecting the infant.

What are the past tense words for "lay" and "lie"

Answers

Answer:

For "lay," the past tense is "laid." So, for example, if yesterday you placed a book on the table, you'd say, "I laid the book on the table."

For "lie," the past tense is "lay" as well. It might sound a bit confusing, but it's like this: If you were feeling tired yesterday and decided to rest, you'd say, "I lay down for a nap."

Explanation:

So, "laid" is for "lay," and "lay" is for "lie" in the past tense. They sound similar, but they have different meanings and uses. Just remember that "lay" usually involves putting something down, while "lie" is about yourself resting or reclining. Hope this helps!
