Read the exchange between jane and mr. rochester before she leaves to attend her aunt and answer the question.

"how long will you stay? "

"as short a time as possible, sir."

"promise me only to stay a week—"

"i had better not pass my word: i might be obliged to break it."

"at all events you will come back: you will not be induced under any pretext to take up a permanent residence with her? "

"oh, no! i shall certainly return if all be well." . .

mr. rochester meditated. "when do you wish to go? "

"early to-morrow morning, sir."

"well, you must have some money; you can't travel without money, and i daresay you have not much: i have given you no salary yet. how much have you in the world, jane? " he asked, smiling.

i drew out my purse; a meagre thing it was. "five shillings, sir." he took the purse, poured the hoard into his palm, and chuckled over it as if its scantiness amused him. soon he produced his pocket-book: "here," said he, offering me a note; it was fifty pounds, and he owed me but fifteen. i told him i had no change.

"i don't want change; you know that. take your wages."

i declined accepting more than was my due. he scowled at first; then, as if recollecting something, he said—

"right, right! better not give you all now: you would, perhaps, stay away three months if you had fifty pounds. there are ten; is it not plenty? "

"yes, sir, but now you owe me five."

"come back for it, then; i am your banker for forty pounds."

brontë incorporates a touch of dramatic irony into this exchange because readers can guess that mr. rochester does not even though jane is unaware of his feelings.

Read the excerpt from david foster wallace’s infinite jest. my silent response to the expectant silence begins to affect the air of the room, the bits of dust and sportcoat-lint stirred around by the ac’s vents dancing jaggedly in the slanted plane of windowlight, the air over the table like the sparkling space just above a fresh-poured seltzer. the coach, in a slight accent neither british nor australian, is telling c.t. that the whole application-interface process, while usually just a pleasant formality, is probably best accentuated by letting the applicant speak up for himself. in this excerpt, the narrator is providing a, both objective descriptions and subjective commentaries. b. only objective information about people, setting, and events. c. only subjective responses to the things he sees and experiences. d. a compromised interpretation of events due to his unstable condition.
