The connotation that best matches the word jostling as it is used in this excerpt is B. Disordely and anxious.

The idea conveyed in the excerpt is that the character is on the verge of being caught by this ever growing army of people. The word jostle is usually used when someone is mentioning a crowd, because it also conveys this idea of being chased, pushed and shoved by it.

I think it's Disordely and Anxious

Which narrative point of view is used in this excerpt from “The Lily’s Quest” by Nathaniel Hawthorne?So one breezy and cloudless afternoon Adam Forrester and Lilias Fay set out upon a ramble over the wide estate which they were to possess together, seeking a proper site for their temple of happiness. They were themselves a fair and happy spectacle, fit priest and priestess for such a shrine, although, making poetry of the pretty name of Lilias, Adam Forrester was wont to call her "Lily" because her form was as fragile and her cheek almost as pale. As they passed hand in hand down the avenue of drooping elms that led from the portal of Lilias Fay's paternal mansion they seemed to glance like winged creatures through the strips of sunshine, and to scatter brightness where the deep shadows fell.



first person



second person



third-person omniscient



third-person limited

Answers

I would say that the narrative point of view used here is third-person limited, given that we don't know what these characters are thinking, which would make this point of view omniscient, or all-knowing. 

When Olivia rejects the duke, he replies, "Oh, she has a heart of that fine frame to pay this debt of love but to a brother! How will she love with . . . self king!"This reply shows that the duke is ____.



A. selfless



B. mature



C. blind to the truth



D. lacking hope

Answers

I say C. Blind to the truth because I read a shorter version of that book before, and I remember that the duke thinks that Olivia actually like him but hides it. And how he gets mad when Olivia falls in love with Viola, thinking that she was a gentleman! Ha! ;D
Hope this helps and have a great day!

Answer:

C. blind to the truth

Explanation:

The Duke is in love with Olivia, at first, who is in love with Cesario. The problem is that Cesario is actually Viola, disguised as a man. Viola is in love with the Duke and working for him as Cesario while being the messenger for the Duke when he wants to send messages to Olivia. The Duke is completly oblivious of the true nature of the whole situation. He believes that Olivia is mourning when she in fact loves Cesario.
