Answer: The right answer is the B) Washington lacked reliable information despite his sources.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that Washington's sources were allegedly trustworthy - one of them was Postmaster General Timothy Pickering and the other one was Comptroller Oliver Wolcott Jr. However, the information that each one of them provided - a weather report and a mortality report - was contradictory and unreliable. While the former informed Washington that the weather had cooled down and the mortality rate had consequently decreased, the latter reported that the weather had indeed become warmer and the deaths had increased.

NeX [460]

Answer: The image of the penny in line 14 is appropriate because the narrator refers to herself as a new-minted penny, meaning that she is young and vigorous, and is willing to offer her help to the listener; the old lady.

Explanation: The poem speaks to an old lady, describing everything about her with tenderness. She refers to the elderly woman as “beautiful and faded", and compares her with old lovely things. In line 14, the narrator refers to herself as a new-minted penny, implying that the fact that she is young and vigorous, does not make her any better than the old lady, just like a penny does not have a big value. However, she offers her help and enthusiastic "sparkle" in whatever she needs.
