At the opening of our story, Mother Ceres is busy tending to the harvest of wheat, corn, rye, and barley; her daughter, Proserpina, begs to go to the seaside while her mother tends to the crops of the world. Mother Ceres hesitantly agrees but warns Proserpina, "The sea nymphs are good creatures, and will never lead you into any harm. But you must take care not to stray away from them, nor go wandering about the fields by yourself. Young girls, without their mothers to take care of them, are very apt to get into mischief."
After visiting with the sea nymphs, Proserpina does exactly what her mother feared—she wanders into the forest.
Innocently, she looked for and gathered beautiful flowers. One shrub was especially beautiful and seemed to grow new blossoms as Proserpina looked at it, almost as if to tempt her to come closer. It was so wondrous that she almost felt the urge to run away from it. She chided herself for her silliness and decided to pull the shrub and plant it for her mother.
As she pulled the shrub, a hole began to form and kept "spreading wider and wider, and growing deeper and deeper, until it really seemed to have no bottom; and all the while, there came a rumbling noise out of its depths, louder and louder, and nearer and nearer, and sounding like the tramp of horses' hoofs and the rattling of wheels. She soon saw a team of four sable (black) horses, snorting smoke out of their nostrils, and tearing their way out of the earth with a splendid golden chariot whirling at their heels. They leaped out of the bottomless hole, chariot and all; and there they were, tossing their black manes and flourishing their black tails, close by the spot where Proserpina stood."
In the chariot, a gloomy but handsome man rubbed his eyes as if he had never seen the sunshine. When he saw Proserpina, he beckoned for her to come to him.
"Do not be afraid," said he, with as cheerful a smile as he knew how to put on. "Come! Will you not like to ride a little way with me, in my beautiful chariot?"
Proserpina's first thought was to call for her mother, but her voice was too quiet to be heard by anyone other than the richly dressed man in the chariot.
"Indeed, it is most likely that Ceres was then a thousand miles off, making the corn grow in some far distant country. Nor could it have helped her poor daughter for the stranger leaped to the ground, caught the child in his arms, and again mounted the chariot, shook the reins, and shouted to the four black horses to set off."
As they rode on, the stranger did his best to comfort her.
"I promise not to do you any harm. What! you have been gathering flowers? Wait till we come to my palace, and I will give you a garden full of prettier flowers than those, all made of pearls, and diamonds, and rubies. Can you guess who I am? They call my name Pluto; and I am the king of diamonds and all other precious stones. The one thing which my palace needs is a merry little maid, to run upstairs and down, and cheer up the rooms with her smile. And this is what you must do for King Pluto."
It is my opinion that even King Pluto had never been happy in his palace, and that this was the true reason why he had stolen away Proserpina, in order that he might have something to love, some sunshine in his dark world.
They were now on a dark and gloomy road, beyond the reach of sunshine.
"We are just entering my dominions. Do you see that tall gateway before us? When we pass those gates, we are at home. And there lies my faithful mastiff at the threshold. Cerberus! Cerberus! Come hither, my good dog!"
"Will the dog bite me?" asked Proserpina, fearing the three-headed dog. "What an ugly creature he is!"
"O, never fear," answered her companion. "He never harms people, unless they try to enter my dominions without being sent for, or to get away when I wish to keep them here. Down, Cerberus! Now, my pretty Proserpina, we will drive on."
Next they crossed over the River Lethe, a magical stream that makes people forget every care and sorrow. Pluto offered Proserpina a sip, which she refused.
"I had a thousand times rather be miserable with remembering my mother, than be happy in forgetting her. That dear, dear mother! I never, never will forget her. I will neither drink that nor anything else. Nor will I taste a morsel of food, even if you keep me forever in your palace."
To tempt Proserpina to eat a morsel and thereby trap her into staying forever, King Pluto sent for his cook who came up with a menu of sweets, seasoned meats, and rich pastries.

E. Then Bernice winced as Marjorie tossed her own hair over her shoulders and began to twist it slowly into two long blond braids until in her cream-colored negligée she looked like a delicate painting of some Saxon princess. Fascinated, Bernice watched the braids grow. Heavy and luxurious they were, moving under the supple fingers like restive snakes—and to Bernice remained this relic and the curling-iron and a to-morrow full of eyes.

and

A.  After a minute's brisk walk [Bernice] discovered that her left hand still held the two blond braids. She laughed unexpectedly—had to shut her mouth hard to keep from emitting an absolute peal. She was passing Warren's house now, and on the impulse she set down her baggage, and swinging the braids like pieces of rope flung them at the wooden porch, where they landed with a slight thud.

This short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald was written in 1920. It was first published in a newspaper called Saturday Evening Post (May, 1920). He based the story on the letters he had written to his sister giving her some advice on how to look prettier and more attractive to men.

Bernice, the main character, is a very rich girl from Wisconsin. When she goes to spend August at Marjorie's house, her cousin, Marjorie realizes Bernice is hopeless when it comes to socializing, so she decides to turn Bernice into a social girl.

One of Bernice's strategies when she is with boys is to tease them with the idea that she will bob her hair with all them getting to watch.

The correct option is d. Lucillius gives Brutus information about Cassius, which influences Brutus's judgment of Cassius.

In the passage provided, Lucillius is conversing with Brutus about how Cassius has been treating him. Lucillius notes that while Cassius has been courteous and respectful, he no longer interacts with Lucillius with the same level of familiarity and friendliness as he used to. This change in behavior is significant because it suggests that Cassius is distancing himself from Lucillius, which could be indicative of a larger issue or conflict.

Lucillius's report to Brutus is important for several reasons:

1. It provides Brutus with insight into Cassius's current state of mind and behavior.

2. It prompts Brutus to reflect on the nature of friendship and loyalty, as he observes that when a friendship begins to deteriorate, the parties involved may resort to formalities rather than genuine interactions.

3. Brutus's conclusion that "hollow men, like horses hot at hand, / Make gallant show and promise of their mettle; / But when they should endure the bloody spur, / They fall their crests" suggests that he is considering the possibility that Cassius may not be as reliable or honorable as he previously thought.

By sharing his observations with Brutus, Lucillius indirectly affects Brutus's perception of Cassius. This new information could lead Brutus to question Cassius's loyalty and intentions, which is a crucial development in the plot as it may influence Brutus's future decisions and actions regarding Cassius.

Therefore, Lucillius's role in this passage is to provide Brutus with information that could potentially change the course of events by altering Brutus's view of Cassius, thus helping to advance the plot.

Amory seems to be haunted by the memory of a past act and its lingering effect on the present, rather than by the ghost of an old friend or a direct occurrence.

The experience that haunted Amory involved a concept of being haunted by the past or an idea rather than an actual ghostly apparition. The haunting seems to stem from 'the memory of her act' and 'the thought of it' that still lives. This type of haunting is created by the weight of past actions and the lasting impact they have on the present, suggesting a kind of psychological or emotional haunting rather than a literal one.

There is no single event stated in the provided excerpts directly referring to Amory being haunted. However, themes of regret, the past's imposition on the present, and the psychological effects of events are prominent. Based on the contexts provided, Amory is more likely to be haunted by something intangible, such as a memory or a guilty conscience, than by a physical or supernatural ghost.

The Preamble begins with the iconic phrase "We the People of the United States" and continues to outline the purposes of the government, such as to establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty for themselves and future generations. It does not list penalties for ignoring the Constitution (B), include new laws and explanations (C), or serve as a guide for interpreting the Constitution (D). The articles that follow the Preamble detail the structure of the government, with Article I describing the Legislative Branch, Article II the Executive Branch, and Article III the Judicial Branch.
