What does the narrator allude to at the end of this sentence from Mark Twain's "The 1,000,000 Bank-Note"?

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.

Use context to determine the meaning of the word rooting as it is used in The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. Write your definition of "rooting" here and tell how you found it.

Answers

Answer:

The word "rooting' is seen in the scene where Bruno had discovered Shmuel in his kitchen, working. He wanted to give something to him to eat so he "opened the refrigerator,about inside it for something to eat".

Explanation:

The word "rooting" can be found in page 169 of the text "The Boy in the tripped Pajamas" by John Boyne. The novel tells the friendship between two young boys, but from different sides of the society- one the son of the Lieutenant and the other, an inmate in the concentration camp overlooked by the lieutenant.

The word "rooting" can generally be used when in support of someone or something, like showing support for or wanting that particular thing to be a success. winner.

But this word is used in a different manner in the text when Bruno was looking in the fridge for any food that he can give to his friend from the "other side of the fence", Shmuel. The word is used here as a form of "looking for", implying that Bruno was looking for something in the fridge.

"Not wanting to look  at Shmuel’s hand any longer, Bruno turned round and opened the  refrigerator, rooting about inside it for something to eat."
