Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde . "And now,” said Mr. Utterson, as soon as Poole had left them, "you have heard the news?” The doctor shuddered. "They were crying it in the square,” he said. "I heard them in my dining-room.” "One word,” said the lawyer. "Carew was my client, but so are you, and I want to know what I am doing. You have not been mad enough to hide this fellow?” "Utterson, I swear to God,” cried the doctor, "I swear to God I will never set eyes on him again. I bind my honour to you that I am done with him in this world. It is all at an end. And indeed he does not want my help; you do not know him as I do; he is safe, he is quite safe; mark my words, he will never more be heard of.” What can the reader infer from Dr. Jekyll’s behavior?

It was, at least, a ticklish decision that he had to make; and self-reliant as he was by habit, he began to cherish a longing for advice. It was not to be had directly; but perhaps, he thought, it might be fished for. Mr. Utterson’s internal conflict is that he

Read the chart about The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Textural Evidence Background Knowledge Inference Poole had, indeed, no very pleasant news to communicate. The doctor, it appeared, now more than ever confined himself to the cabinet over the laboratory, where he would sometimes even sleep; he was out of spirits, he had grown very silent, he did not read; it seemed as if he had something on his mind. Utterson became so used to the unvaryingcharacter of these reports, that he fell off little by little in the frequency of his visits. I know that when people feel confident and happy, they are more likely to go out and socialize with other people Which is the best inference to add to the third column of the chart?

Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde . It is one thing to mortify curiosity, another to conquer it; and it may be doubted if, from that day forth, Utterson desired the society of his surviving friend with the same eagerness. He thought of him kindly; but his thoughts were disquieted and fearful. He went to call indeed; but he was perhaps relieved to be denied admittance; perhaps, in his heart, he preferred to speak with Poole upon the doorstep and surrounded by the air and sounds of the open city, rather than to be admitted into that house of voluntary bondage, and to sit and speak with its inscrutable recluse.

Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde . "I have buried one friend to-day,” he thought: "what if this should cost me another?” And then he condemned the fear as a disloyalty, and broke the seal. Within there was another enclosure, likewise sealed, and marked upon the cover as "not to be opened till the death or disappearance of Dr. Henry Jekyll.” Utterson could not trust his eyes. Yes, it was disappearance; here again, as in the mad will which he had long ago restored to its author, here again were the idea of a disappearance and the name of Henry Jekyll bracketted. But in the will, that idea had sprung from the sinister suggestion of the man Hyde; it was set there with a purpose all too plain and horrible. Written by the hand of Lanyon, what should it mean? A great curiosity came on the trustee, to disregard the prohibition and dive at once to the bottom of these mysteries; but professional honour and faith to his dead friend were stringent obligations; and the packet slept in the inmost corner of his private safe. What internal conflicts does Utterson experience in the passage? Choose three correct answers.
