Answer:
Part A- He is trying to trick Ben.
Part B- "Tom gave up the brush with reluctance in his face, but alacrity in his heart."
Explanation:
Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" revolves around the story of a young boy named Tom Sawyer and his adventures along the river Mississippi. The story follows a mischievous Tom, playing or fooling his Aunt Polly, his friends, and also includes his half-brother Sid.
In the chapter "The Glorious Whitewasher", Tom was made to paint the fence while his friends were enjoying their day. Though reluctant to whitewash the fence, he had no means to escape the work. So, he reluctantly worked on that, when along came Ben Rogers. Tom fooled Ben into doing his work by saying ‘whitewashing isn't work’, asking "Does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?" This changed Ben's opinion of the work.
But when Ben asked to do the work, Tom refused, though that was all part of the plan. He would trick Ben into doing the work, and also in exchange for his apple. The use of the word "reluctance" showed Tom's refusal to let Ben do the work but deep inside, he was happy to be relieved of it, with the narrator using the word "alacrity" in the same sentence.
Thus, the correct answers are
Part A- He is trying to trick Ben.
Part B- "Tom gave up the brush with reluctance in his face, but alacrity in his heart."
The Evidence is shown and explained in part B of the question.
Part B: Option D) "Tom gave up the brush with reluctance in his face, but alacrity in his heart. "Reluctance means 'unwillingness or disinclination to do something', which means that Tom is making it look like he doesn't want to give the brush to him, but with alacrity in his heart which means cheerfulness.

Answer:

Explanation:
When the Romans conquered Greece, the gods Hades and Pluto were combined and replaced Dis Pater as the god of wealth, the dead and agriculture. The god Pluto lived in a palace in the underworld, far away from the other gods who lived at Mount Olympus.Pluto was also the god of wealth because diamonds and other jewels come from underground. A myth about Pluto is that he took Proserpina, who was the daughter of Ceres, to the underworld to be his wife. ... People needed the plants so much that the god Jupiter made Pluto give her up.
____________________________________________________________
Once upon a time Proserpina was out in the fields with her mother Ceres. ... Ceres was a little hesitant because of the whole Pluto thing but Proserpina was a few years older now and so Ceres let her go. Proserpina confessed that she had eaten the four pomegranate seeds. ... When winter comes, the Earth grows cold and barren because Proserpina lives in the underworld with Pluto, and her mother hides in a cave, mourning. Yet when her daughter returns to her, Ceres, goddess of grain, turns the world to spring and summer.
____________________________________________________________
Ceres had to be a very cautious when she had her child, Proserpina. This young little girl climbed everything ever since she could walk. Ceres knew that she would have to stay on her toes throughout Proserpina's childhood.
