question 4
PART B: Which TWO details best support the answer to Part A?

B. “as [sunlight] streamed over the breakfast table Herbert laughed at his fears.”
(Paragraph 66)
C. “the dirty, shriveled little paw was pitched on the sideboard with a carelessness
which betokened no great belief in its virtues.” (Paragraph 66)
D. “‘I suppose all soldiers are the same,’ said Mrs. White. ‘The idea of our listening
to such nonsense!’” (Paragraph 67)
E. “‘I’m afraid it’ll turn you into a mean, avaricious man, and we shall have to
disown you.’” (Paragraph 70)
F. “All of which did not prevent her from scurrying to the door at the postman’s
