Are you suppose to have read this book Rosala?
It looks rather like homework to me :/
actually yeah ....i was to read it but i forgot and it is so boring i cnat read it....i dont know why we get these books....there just useless....i thought the anonymous person could help me with these MCQs......looks like no body wants to...
I'll help you, Rosala. My connection is jumping through 37 nodes so there is a lag from my end.
Here the first answer.
November of 1859.
That would be shortly after Melody was born :)
Guess who this is?
Aside from the snarky age comment --I'm not Zegroes.
I actually do sympathize with you Rosala. I have never read this particular Dickens book but I did have to study others when I was a school. I DID read them but I did not particularly enjoy reading them. Mind you some of the other books we had to read were definitely worse.
A Tale of Two Cities does have a trememdous amount of history in it. So that alone makes it better than some of the others. At least you get to learn something.
Anyway
Some of these questions could be answered if you just google them.
This should help :/
7up.......btw pls can you answer the other ones....sorry if you mind me talking like this but im just going crazy!
Yes, this anon knows when I was born because he was already an old man then!
Maybe he was a hospital orderly?
Anyway, I expect he read this Dicken's novel as it was being published. So he should be able to help you :)
i thought 7up as he mostly gives such answers...not let me look at the other side.....it is CPHill correct?
no not at all....i gave the answer based on who comes here daily now a days....i give up who are you mister who can answer all my questions please?
7UP Aye! Well that is interesting. He's very inteligent.
CPhill is interesting too.
This is Your Friendly Neighborhood Troll :)
Sorry for the major lag. I will try to reconnect with a faster connection. It will either work better or I will lose what I have. . . . . . . .
But I will answer your questions ASAP
ahan!Nauseated!how could i ever not mention my dear nauseated........i never thought a superb mind had to go anonymous.....maybe its becoz of the "wars between trolls" hun.......im so happy,.....thank you nauseated!
I think that is "The War OF the Trolls" ROF LOL
OR maybe just
"The War OF the Troll"
you know what Melody...i dont know why Nauseated calls himself a "troll" those who need to call themselves dont and those who dont need to call themselves do.....hes so intelligent and gives some amazing answer i can never so why a troll.......why not an "out-stander"?
I tried logging on but the end node jumps and invalidates the cookie.
That happens when I post as an Anon too, I lose everything I type.
This is more aggravating than a troll!
I hope it yes better soon! I've got some more questions please! If you want I can message them to you too! Btw , there all just MCQs so give a light answer , don't think too much. But please help me!
This seems stable for the moment . . .
Yes, I do. I neglected to mention that it is LESS aggravating than a particular Moderator on a certain Maths Forum. That particular moderator wouldn’t include Radix, Alan, or CPhill. Well, maybe it includes CPhill, sometimes –but not too often. :)

I might have thought so, but this forum is one of the few where I am not banned. I know because I can log on. Which begs the question: why do I want to be a member of a forum that would allow me as a member?
It’s not troll-like; it antithetical to our character --It’s a paradox. :)

Rosala, do what you need to do to make a good grade. However, if you want to be a good writer, you will have to study and understand all manner of ancient and modern literature.
It’s part of the troll’s toll. :)

Yes - it is definitely a paradox
Mind you - if you have been thrown out of all the other forum maybe you only want to be here because this is the ONLY place that will have you :/
Plus, of course, we are also lovable.
Rosala is positively dripping with lovable .... :)
