Aaron wrote the following claim statement for his literary analysis of the novel around the world in eighty days by jules verne. in around the world in eighty days, jules verne’s main character, phileas fogg takes an inner journey from a distant man who values punctuality to a loving friend who puts others’ welfare before his own interests. which quote from the story can he use as one piece of evidence to support his claim? a. from chapter 3: “a memorandum of the wager was at once drawn up and signed by the six parties, during which phileas fogg preserved a stoical composure. he certainly did not bet to win, and had only staked the twenty thousand pounds, half of his fortune, because he foresaw that he might have to expend the other half to carry out this difficult, not to say unattainable, project.” b. from chapter 4: “just as the train was whirling through sydenham, passepartout suddenly uttered a cry of despair. ‘what’s the matter? ’ asked mr. fogg. ‘alas! in my hurry—i—i forgot—’ ‘what? ’ ‘to turn off the gas in my room! ’ ‘very well, young man,’ returned mr. fogg, coolly; ‘it will burn—at your expense.’” c. from chapter 29: “the conductor was fighting beside mr. fogg, when he was shot and fell. at the same moment he cried, ‘unless the train is stopped in five minutes, we are lost! ’ ‘it shall be stopped,’ said phileas fogg, preparing to rush from the car.” d. from chapter 36: “one minute more, and the wager would be won. andrew stuart and his partners suspended their game. they left their cards, and counted the seconds.… at the fifty-seventh second the door of the saloon opened; and the pendulum had not beat the sixtieth second when phileas fogg appeared, followed by an excited crowd who had forced their way through the club doors, and in his calm voice, said, ‘here i am, gentlemen! ’”

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
