Read the excerpt from "the three questions" by leo tolstoy. all the answers being different, the king agreed with none of them, and gave the reward to none. but still wishing to find the right answers to his questions, he decided to consult a hermit, widely renowned for his wisdom. the hermit lived in a wood which he never quitted, and he received none but common folk. so the king put on simple clothes, and before reaching the hermit's cell dismounted from his horse, and, leaving his body-guard behind, went on alone. when the king approached, the hermit was digging the ground in front of his hut. seeing the king, he greeted him and went on digging. the hermit was frail and weak, and each time he stuck his spade into the ground and turned a little earth, he breathed heavily. the king went up to him and said: "i have come to you, wise hermit, to ask you to answer three questions: how can i learn to do the right thing at the right time? who are the people i most need, and to whom should i, therefore, pay more attention than to the rest? and, what affairs are the most important, and need my first attention? " the hermit listened to the king, but answered nothing. he just spat on his hand and recommenced digging. "you are tired," said the king, "let me take the spade and work awhile for you." which paragraphs from the excerpt best support the conclusion that the author’s primary purpose is to teach a lesson? select two options. a)“all the answers being different, the king agreed with none of them, and gave the reward to none. but still wishing to find the right answers to his questions, he decided to consult a hermit, widely renowned for his wisdom.” b)“the hermit lived in a wood which he never quitted, and he received none but common folk. so the king put on simple clothes, and before reaching the hermit's cell dismounted from his horse, and, leaving his body-guard behind, went on alone.” c)“when the king approached, the hermit was digging the ground in front of his hut. seeing the king, he greeted him and went on digging. the hermit was frail and weak, and each time he stuck his spade into the ground and turned a little earth, he breathed heavily.” d)“the king went up to him and said: ‘i have come to you, wise hermit, to ask you to answer three questions: how can i learn to do the right thing at the right time? who are the people i most need, and to whom should i, therefore, pay more attention than to the rest? and, what affairs are the most important, and need my first attention? ’” e)“the hermit listened to the king, but answered nothing. he just spat on his hand and recommenced digging.” f)“’you are tired,’ said the king, ‘let me take the spade and work awhile for you.’”

Which two parts of this excerpt from mary shelley’s frankenstein reveals information about the setting? (it was on a dreary night of november that i beheld the accomplishment of my toils.) with an anxiety that almost amounted to agony, (i collected the instruments of life around me, that i might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. it was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out) when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, i saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs. (how can i describe my emotions at this catastrophe), or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care i had endeavored to form? his limbs were in proportion, and i had selected his features as beautiful. beautiful! great god! (his yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness; ) but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same color as the dun-white sockets in which they were set, his shriveled complexion and straight black lips.
