Answer:
The writer is implying that politicians are shameless people who would do anything for their own gain.
Explanation:
Charles Farrar Browne was an American humorist writer and a comedian who is more better known by his pen name Artemus Ward. His book "Interview With Lincoln" is a satirical or humorous representation of the real world as he sees it.
The passage from the question is from the text where he seems to suggest that the "owner" of the place was a generous place. But with politicians, there can be no honor or full trust. The use of the word "hog-pen" suggests that he is ready to accommodate anyone who's willing to be on his side. After his whole place had been filled, he still wants people to be with him even though there seems to be no space left. Thus, these lines seems to imply that the politicians will do anything if it's going to give them some profit out of the situation. It shows their shamelessness.
D - if she were to upset her tutor.....
Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.We think this because it seems like he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.I hope this helps!
