I can help you with checking the answers to these questions about the novel The Scarlet Letter. Let's go through each question and examine the options.
1) Chillingworth escaped from Indian captivity by drugging his guards with an herb potion?
To determine if this statement is true or false, you can refer to the novel itself. Look for instances where Chillingworth's escape from Indian captivity is mentioned. Check if there is any evidence of him drugging his guards with an herb potion. Once you find the relevant information, you can determine if the statement is true or false.
2) Chillingworth secretly provides Hester with money to support Pearl?
Again, you need to review the novel to find any instances where Chillingworth provides Hester with money. Look for specific passages or events that relate to this claim. If you can find evidence supporting the statement, then it is true. If not, it is false.
3) The main occupation of the only surgeon in Boston at the time of the story was that of a druggist?
Review the novel and search for any information about the main occupation of the only surgeon in Boston. Pay attention to passages that mention the surgeon's profession or any relevant details. If it is mentioned that the surgeon primarily worked as a druggist, then the statement is true. If the novel suggests a different occupation or doesn't provide sufficient information, then the statement is false.
4) Until his confession, the only people besides the minister himself to know of his sinfulness are Hester, Chillingworth, and:
To answer this question, you must consider the characters mentioned in the given options and cross-reference them with the events in the novel. Identify instances where the minister's sinfulness is discussed or revealed. If any of the options, such as John Wilson, Governor Bellingham, or the minister's landlady, are mentioned to be aware of his sinfulness, then the statement is false. However, if it is stated that only Mistress Hibbins, in addition to Hester and Chillingworth, knows about the minister's sinfulness, then the answer is true.
Remember to consult the novel for the specific information and details to determine the accuracy of each statement.
