svp [43]

The two parts of this excerpt from W. W. Jacobs's "The Monkey's Paw" show that show the White family doesn't believe in the talisman's power are:

"Sounds like the 'Arabian Nights,'" said Mrs. White, as she rose and began to set the supper.

The 'Arabian Nights' were stories made up by the narrator Scheherazade and told to the King over 1001 nights so that he would not kill her as he had done with so many other women in the past. In this way, it signifies that Mrs. White believes this story to be a made-up tale.

and

"Don't you think you might wish for four pairs of hands for me." Her husband drew the talisman from his pocket, and all three burst into laughter

Mr. White is jokingly asking to be given four pairs of hands, something that isn't sensible or realistic, because he does not believe in the power of the talisman to grant wishes. In the end the three burst in laughter as they do not take the talisman, or the story of it's power, seriously.

How does Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

A. It shows that Cassius thinks that Brutus is too optimistic.

Explanation:

Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory in the excerpt in the passage affects its meaning because it shows that Cassius thinks Brutus is too optimistic, that is, Brutus expect they would win the war.

Cassius is trying to ask Brutus if he could face the humiliation of losing the battle and be led through the street of Time as trophy.

This means that there are two consequences of fighting a war, either to lose or to win.

Loosing means to be paraded as trophy and winning means to parade the losers as trophy.
