In my room I sat down and tried calmly to reason out the matter. Here was I, Theobald Jack Pansay, a well-educated Bengal Civilian in the year of grace 1885, presumably sane, certainly healthy, driven in terror from my sweetheart's side by the apparition of a woman who had been dead and buried eight months ago. These were facts that I could not blink. Nothing was further from my thought than any memory of Mrs. Wessington when Kitty and I left Hamilton's shop. Nothing was more utterly commonplace than the stretch of wall opposite Peliti's. It was broad daylight. The road was full of people; and yet here, look you, in defiance of every law of probability, in direct outrage of Nature's ordinance, there had appeared to me a face from the grave.

Aurora's Day
Aurora was going to turn 15 years old in a few months. This significant day would mark her coming of age in Mexican culture. She looked forward to the privileges of sitting with the adults at family gatherings. However, Aurora was disappointed to learn that she would not be given the traditional quinceañera, a celebration that would honor her transition from childhood to adulthood. Aurora was sad because she had dreamt of wearing a beautiful gown and being the center of attention at a fancy party.
"Mija, lo siento. My daughter, I am sorry. ¡Qué lástima! What a pity! We just can't afford such an expensive party," Aurora's mom said.
Aurora cried and pouted, but that didn't change the circumstances. Tía Claudia tried to lift Aurora's spirits by saying that she would still have fun attending her friends' quinceañeras, but that only made Aurora feel worse. Yet, Aurora tried her best to have a good attitude in the weeks leading up to her day. Aurora stopped complaining that she would not have a quinceañera and began to get excited about going to her friends' special parties.
On day of Aurora's was to have her party, her mom woke her early.
"Mija, I have a surprise for you," Aurora's mom said.
"What is it, Mama?" Aurora asked.
"You will have a quinceañera!" Aurora's mom said.
"But, how?" Aurora asked.
"Tu familia, your family, has worked together to make the celebration possible. Now get up! There is a lot to do!" Aurora's mom said.
Aurora was overwhelmed with joy. She quickly rose and helped her mom with the final preparations. At 4:00 p.m., Aurora's grandma, Abuelita Milagra, arrived at Aurora's home. She carried a large bag.
"You must get dressed, mi amor, my love!" Abuelita Milagra said.
Aurora took the bag from her grandma and ran to her bedroom. Inside the bag, she found an exquisite white satin dress, a pair of white slippers, and a special book. Abuelita Milagra made sure that Aurora had a traditional white gown to symbolize purity, instead of a brightly colored modern one. Aurora slipped on the dress and the shoes and ran to show her mom and grandma.
"Mija, you look like an angel!" Aurora's mom said.
Abuelita Milagra hugged and kissed Aurora. Then, she reached inside her purse and pulled out a necklace with a delicate gold heart. She placed the necklace around Aurora's neck.
"Otra cosa, another thing," Abuelita Milagra said.
Aurora's dad entered the kitchen carrying a sparkling rhinestone tiara.
"Mi princesa, my princess, I have a crown for you. You are my precious daughter. You have made your family proud by working hard at school, and by being truthful and kind," Aurora's dad said as he placed the tiara on her head.
Then, Aurora and her family drove to a family members house for a special meeting. Aurora received hugs and gifts from aunts and uncles. Next, she gave her younger cousin Sofía a doll. Aurora had received that same doll from her older cousin Pearla when Pearla had turned 15.
At last, it was time to celebrate. Aurora and her family went to a local restaurant where all of her friends and extended family were gathered. Dressed in a tuxedo, Aurora's friend Ramón served as her escort for the evening. He shyly complimented her appearance, took her arm, and walked her to the stage.
"¡Mil gracias, mi familia! A million thanks, my family! I will never forget this day!" Aurora said into the microphone.
"We love you, Aurora!" everyone shouted.

In the second paragraph of "Ain't I a Woman? how does Truth appeal to listeners' sense of logic?
That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to
have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives
me any best place! And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted,
and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and
eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a woman? I have
borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's
grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?

Which two details in the passage support the idea that Darcy is also prejudiced against Elizabeth?

from Pride and Prejudice
by Jane Austen

In this scene, Elizabeth has rejected Darcy’s proposal of marriage has given her opinion of him, and the following is his response to her.

"And this," cried Darcy, as he walked with quick steps across the room, "is your opinion of me! This is the estimation in which you hold me! I thank you for explaining it so fully. My faults, according to this calculation, are heavy indeed! But perhaps," added he, stopping in his walk, and turning towards her, "these offences might have been overlooked, had not your pride been hurt by my honest confession of the scruples that had long prevented my forming any serious design. These bitter accusations might have been suppressed, had I with greater policy concealed my struggles, and flattered you into the belief of my being impelled by unqualified, unalloyed inclination; by reason, by reflection, by every thing. But disguise of every sort is my abhorrence. Nor am I ashamed of the feelings I related. They were natural and just. Could you expect me to rejoice in the inferiority of your connections? To congratulate myself on the hope of relations, whose condition in life is so decidedly beneath my own?"
