Read the excerpt from Act II of The Importance of Being Earnest. Jack. Oh! I don’t see much fun in being christened along with other babies. It would be childish. Would half-past five do?

Chasuble. Admirably! Admirably! [Takes out watch.] And now, dear Mr. Worthing, I will not intrude any longer into a house of sorrow. I would merely beg you not to be too much bowed down by grief. What seem to us bitter trials are often blessings in disguise.

Miss Prism. This seems to me a blessing of an extremely obvious kind.

Which two definitions of the word blessing does the pun in this excerpt rely on?

approval from someone in charge
a religious ceremony called a christening
encouragement from a friend
grace said at a meal
something that brings one happiness

A religious ceremony called a christening .

Something that brings one happiness.

Explanation:

Oscar Wilde's comical play "The Importance of Being Ernest" revolves around the character of one gentleman John Worthing and his 'imaginary' alter-identity Ernest. John 'Jack' Worthing makes up the imaginary identity of Ernest whenever he wants to escape society and its responsibilities that he finds constricting and at times, absurd. And it was 'Ernest' that makes it possible for him to enjoy his life how he wants to.

In the given excerpt from Act II, we see Jack asking the rector Chasuble to be rechristened. The use of the pun "blessing" in this excerpt is suggestive of the literal sense, the religious ceremony where babies are christened in front of God and the parents. It also means something that brings happiness and joy to a person.

Thus, the correct answers are the second and fifth option.

a) walter looks unhealthy

for this case, we must find the number of deaths per day of the year 2015, in automobile accidents, knowing that 32,400 people died.

knowing that the year 2015 had 365 days we have the following division:

where "x" represents the number of deaths per day.

rounding off we have:

approximately, 89 people per day died in 2015

answer:

89 people per day
