c. For example, in the novel her character says, "Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts, as much as their brothers do; they suffer from too rigid a restraint, too absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer."

Why, now you speak
Like a good child and a true gentleman.
That I am guiltless of your father's death,

Answer:
The excerpt claims that Johnson's work is significant because he:
B. searched literature and found more words.
Explanation:
<u>According to the excerpt, dictionaries were quite limited. To write one that was as complete as possible, Johnson had a lot of work. First, he began by reading books. By searching literature, he was able to add more words to the ones dictionaries had already provided him with. Then, he moved on to the difficult but certainly rewarding task of gleaning words from "living speech," which can be quite a chaotic job.</u> He did not change the format of dictionaries, he did not apply rules to make language less chaotic, nor did he select only the most difficult words to define. Therefore, the correct option is letter B.

- Diggers, corkscrewing cleanly in, exhilerausted, into the mind mine, impaled on edgeless shafts of subtle reminiscence, green- walking across the belts and ties.
In this sentence, the author uses words such as the "mind mine" and "reminiscence," which imply that the subject of his poem spends a lot of time alone with his thoughts. This lack of company or interaction with others highlight issues of isolation and alienation.
- Slanted dark-walked time, wet with ages of dryness, Raga of insignificance & blessed hopelessness.
"Dark-walked time," "ages of dryness," "insignificance" and "hopelessness" allude to the lack of <em>presence</em> of the subject. It also points to feeling small and unimportant. Loneliness often has these effects (feeling insignificant, feeling like there is no purpose to existence, not being present in the moment). Therefore, the sentence reiterates the suffering of alienation and isolation.
