Read this excerpt from The American Plague: The True and Terrifying Story of the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1793. Most doctors had predicted the fever would end when the cold weather returned. Almost all epidemics followed the same pattern, striking during warm weather, disappearing with the first hard frost. Daniel Defoe, in recording the end of the Black Death that visited London in 1665, wrote that "the winter weather came on apace [and] most of those that had fallen sick recovered, and the health of the city began to return." Which excerpt from Fever 1793 connects to the historical account detailed in the excerpt? Guns were fired on the street corners, and a cannon blasted in the public square to purify the air. "The almshouse is closed. They want to protect their residents from the disease. So the fever victims lie on the floor of Rickett’s with little water and no care." "Jefferson still comes into town every morning, though everyone says he’ll soon quit and retire to his farm at Monticello," said Mr. Carris. I silently counted on my fingers: twenty-eight days until the end of September, then on into October until the first frost. Frost always killed fever. Mr. Carris said it drained the poison from the air. I CAN ONLY CHOOSE ONE ANSWER NOT BOTH A AND D

Match the underlined words to their meanings based on their context in this excerpt from Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol.

A terrible voice in the hall cried, "Bring down Master Scrooge's box, there!" and in the hall appeared the schoolmaster himself, who glared on Master Scrooge with a ferocious condescension, and threw him into a dreadful state of mind by shaking hands with him. He then conveyed him and his sister into the veriest old well of a shivering best-parlor that ever was seen, where the maps upon the wall, and the celestial and terrestrial globes in the windows, were waxy with cold. Here he produced a decanter of curiously light wine, and a block of curiously heavy cake, and administered installments of those dainties to the young people: at the same time, sending out a meagre servant to offer a glass of "something" to the post-boy, who answered that he thanked the gentleman, but if it was the same tap as he has tasted before, he has rather not. Master Scrooge's trunk being by this time tied on to the top of the chaise, the children bade the schoolmaster good-bye right willingly and getting into it, drove gaily down the garden-sweep: the quick wheels dashing the hoar-frost and snow from off the dark eaves of the evergreens like spray.

Match these pairs:

I WILL MARK U AS BRAINLIEST Read this excerpt from The First Men in the Moon.

The chance that had brought me into the very birth-chamber of this new time—it was an epoch, no less—was one of those chances that come once in a thousand years. The thing unrolled, it expanded and expanded. Among other things I saw in it my redemption as a business man. I saw a parent company, and daughter companies, applications to right of us, applications to left, rings and trusts, privileges, and concessions spreading and spreading, until one vast, stupendous Cavorite company ran and ruled the world.
