Dr. Heidegger's Experiment
by Nathaniel Hawthorne (excerpt)

Meanwhile, the three gentlemen behaved in such a manner as proved that the water of the Fountain of Youth possessed some intoxicating qualities; unless, indeed, their exhilaration of spirits were merely a lightsome dizziness caused by the sudden removal of the weight of years. Mr. Gascoigne's mind seemed to run on political topics, but whether relating to the past, present, or future, could not easily be determined, since the same ideas and phrases have been in vogue these fifty years. Now he rattled forth full-throated sentences about patriotism, national glory, and the people's right now he muttered some perilous stuff or other, in a sly and doubtful whisper, so cautiously that even his own conscience could scarcely catch the secret and now, again, he spoke in measured accents, and a deeply deferential tone, as if a royal ear were listening to his well-turned periods.

Based on the excerpt from Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment," which sentence best describes Mr. Gascoigne?

A: Mr. Gascoigne was fueled with feelings of patriotism and he felt compassion for his friends.

B. Mr. Gascoigne was so thrilled to hear himself speak that he didn't care who was listening.

C. Mr. Gascoigne became delirious and couldn't help talking incessantly to everyone.

D. Mr. Gascoigne was feeling nostalgic and wanted to show off his knowledge of politics.

E. Mr. Gascoigne had delusions about his understanding of national politics and people's rights.​

Wireless Controller Complications

Wireless video game controllers can sometimes be problematic, but in most cases there is an easy fix. One very common issue is that the controller will not stay connected. To resolve this problem, move closer to your gaming equipment. It also helps to move other nearby wireless devices, so that they do not interfere with your wireless signal. Sometimes the controller may lose connection because it simply does not have enough power. This dilemma can easily be solved by charging or replacing the batteries. If your wireless game controller is not acting properly, move closer, clear away other devices, and make sure it is properly charged.

Explanation:

A rebuttal refers to a response to an opponent's counterclaim, addressing the counterclaim and arguing why the opponent's argument is not solid, and disproving it with evidence.  

In this case the following comment is a counterclaim by an opponent who disagrees with the authors original argument: "We need to encourage kids to get more exercise. New sports facilities would inspire kids to get outside more and get moving. I’m all for it. "  

The author responds to the above counterclaim by providing the following rebuttal with evidence to support it: "Exercise is good, no doubt about that, but you don’t need it from sports facilities or team sports. The Sequoia Nature Preserve has miles of paths where people walk, even jog. And when kids are walking in the forest, they area also breathing cleaner air and the surroundings are peaceful—it’s a healthy environment for people to get exercise and just get away from city life.

Romeo: If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this;
My lips two blushing pilgrims ready stand
to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.

Juliet: Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
which mannerly devotion shows in this,
for saints have hands that pilgrims’ hand do touch,
and palm to palm is holy palmer’s kiss.

Romeo: Have not saints’ lips and holy palmer’s too?
Juliet: Aye, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.
Romeo: O, then, dear saint let lips do what hands do
they pray; grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.

Juliet: Saints do not move, though grant for prayers’ sake
Romeo: Then move not while my prayer’s effect I take.
