C) the possibility of Adams failure and having a lot of debt to repay.

In "The 1,000,000 Bank-Note," we meet Henry Adams, a man who has been given a 1,000,000 bank-note, but is unable to exchange it. However, the simple fact of being in possession of it proves extremely beneficial, as no one doubts his wealth and everyone is willing to loan him money and give him opportunities. Eventually, he meets Portia, and realizes that she is a cheerful person. He is thankful for her personality, as he believes that it is possible that all his deception will be discovered, and he will have a lot of money to repay.

multiple settings

< > reasoning \ evidence < >

novels have multiple settings. a setting is a place or surrounding when a main event or event takes place. not everything happens in just one scene or setting. yes, there can be one *main* setting, but there is definitely not just one. b is incorrect. novels do not have limited characters. there are many characters in a novel, depending on how many the writer wishes to add in. c is incorrect. there is not just a single theme. there are many themes. another word for "theme" is the subject. there can be many subjects and topics. once again, there are many, depending on however many the author wishes to add or include. d is incorrect. yes, novels *can* have no solutions, based on what the author would like. but typically, novels have a solution. the solution might be in "book 5", but there is normally still a solution.
