Read the paragraph from a school paper’s editorial. Recently, the Wheatbrook High School Board has come across a problem that many districts across the nation face: the school district is short of funds. One suggestion to reduce costs is to increase class sizes from an average of 20 students per class to an average of 30 students per class. This proposal is simply unacceptable.

Why does the author use the phrase short of funds?

A)to describe how poor the district’s budget plan is

B) to suggest that the district actually has no money

C) to make the district’s need for money seem less severe

D) to reveal something readers did not know

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.

there monkeys paw is old and they wish for being skinny, getting rich, and bring their son back.

the answer would be " she kept on going till she got to the north."

good luck! hope i : )
