According to the following model answer extract, what is the connection with Mr. Davis’ ‘unexpected command’ and the beginning of the extract when the narrator says, ‘it was a most unfortunate moment for denouncing Amy, AND JENNY KNEW IT’?
Furthermore, because Alcott explains that it was an ‘unexpected command which arrested her’ when Mr. Davis calls for Amy to ‘Bring with you the limes you have in your desk,‘ we can make the connection with the beginning of the extract when the narrator says, ‘it was a most unfortunate moment for denouncing Amy, AND JENNY KNEW IT’; here, the narrator appears to imply that it was Jenny who exposed Amy to Mr. Davis, and this helps elicit a sense of disappointment in the reader for Jenny, while enhancing our sympathy for Amy.

Question 8 of 10

Why does the author use the adjective ‘portentous’ according to the following paragraph?
...the narrator states, ‘As Amy returned from her last trip’ of throwing ‘the limes out of the window two by two’, ‘Mr Davis gave a portentous “Hem!”’; the adjective ‘portentous’ denotes something that is done in a pompously or overly solemn manner so as to impress; however, it suggests that Mr. Davis is about to carry out Amy’s punishment not so much for the purpose of justice, but more for the purpose of re-establishing his own importance...
