Answer: C. sat always at my right hand.

Explanation:

Robinson Crusoe is the protagonist of Daniel Defoe's novel of the same name (1719).

In this particular excerpt, Crusoe describes his pets and their habits. His parrot Poll is the only one who talks to him, his dog always sits at his right hand, and the two cats sit on the two opposite sides of the table. The way he talks about his pets indicates that he is preoccupied with mastery. This is evident because his dog is always beside him, which is Crusoe's way to establish authority and have everything under control. He is the dog's master, and the dog must obey him.

True [87]

Upton Sinclair, Ida Tarbell and Frank Norris were amont the first journalists to publicize immoral, corrupt practices of large industries during the Progressive Era.

Upton Sinclair was an American writer who won the Pulitzer Prize. In 1904, Fred Warren, editor of the socialist newspaper Appeal to Reason, commissioned him a report on the bad practices of the food industry that would become the novel The Jungle, an unprecedented sales success and a huge international commotion.  As a consequence, President Theodore Roosevelt received the author in the White House and put in place laws to ensure the quality of food for human consumption.

Ida Tarbell was an American professor, writer and journalist, considered one of the main "muckrakers" of the Progressive Era.  She is known for her research on John D. Rockefeller and the Standard Oil Company; her investigations exposed the unfair monopolistic practices carried out by the company until the Supreme Court decided to dissolve the monopoly.

Frank Norris was an American correspondent and novelist. Between 1895 and 1896, he worked as a correspondent in South Africa. Between 1896 and 1897, he was assistant editor of the San Francisco Wave. During the Spanish-American War, Norris was a correspondent in Cuba for McClure's magazine, being critical of American interventionist policies in the war.

Answer:

On leaving the Jail, John Brown had on his face an expression of calmness. Some believe he died a Patriot and some believe he died a murderer. As he stepped out of the door a black woman, with her little child in her arms, stood near his way. He stopped for a moment in his course, stooped over, and the child affectionately. Some may rejoice that John Brown has been hung and many may not.

What studies does Frankenstein undertake on his own? What are his reactions to his professors when he goes to University? How di
geniusboy [140]

Frankenstein starts studying what was chemestry those days.He needed to know more about the functions of the tissues and the connections they had to the human body and the brain.When he goes to university he seems to be eager to learn more about sciences yet not revealed to men.He thought he was going to be able to find certain answers to questions about life and death but his professors objected to ideas which seemed unnatural for them or related to dark sciences they did not teach at such an institution.

His future destiny at university was decided when he found one of his professors with his same interest but not with his obssession. His course of scientific study will lead him to his own ruin, he cannot stop. He is too much into studying something which is a mistery to others who seek knowledge too.Krempe and Waldman are different because they did not have this hubger for knowledge, this craze for for acquiring answers about questions not yet asked in any science up to those days.

MatroZZZ [7]
I think it would be "<span>is critical of his motherâs choices." Hamlet thinks that his mother is morally frail. He thinks that she only wants to protect her title as the Queen of Denmark. He thinks that because of her frailty, her decisions are often questionable and would only benefit her and not of the people or her country.</span>
