OpenStudy (volleyballlover55):

Read the following selection from "A Retrieved Reformation" and answer the question that follows: Pulling out from the wall a folding-bed, Jimmy slid back a panel in the wall and dragged out a dust-covered suit-case. He opened this and gazed fondly at the finest set of burglar's tools in the East... ...In half an hour Jimmy went down stairs and through the cafe. He was now dressed in tasteful and well-fitting clothes, and carried his dusted and cleaned suit-case in his hand. "Got anything on?" asked Mike Dolan, genially. "Me?" said Jimmy, in a puzzled tone. "I don't understand. I'm representing the New York Amalgamated Short Snap Biscuit Cracker and Frazzled Wheat Company." What does this selection suggest Jimmy's next step will be? He will become a shoe salesman. He will sell crackers to Mike. He will go into business with Mike. He will go back to his criminal ways.

OpenStudy (randomuser):

Read the following selection from "A Retrieved Reformation" and answer the question that follows: "Now, Valentine," said the warden, "you'll go out in the morning. Brace up, and make a man of yourself. You're not a bad fellow at heart. Stop cracking safes, and live straight." "Me?" said Jimmy, in surprise. "Why, I never cracked a safe in my life." What does the dialogue reveal about Jimmy Valentine? The warden thinks Jimmy is mature. The warden thinks Jimmy can turn his life around. The warden feels there is no hope for Jimmy. Jimmy admits that he committed the robberies.

OpenStudy (randomuser):
