In Scene 7, Ryder says to Holmes, "Now I am a branded thief- without having touched the wealth for which I sold my character." What does Ryder mean by this? a yder thinks that all thieves are rich. b Ryder ruined his reputation and didn't even get to enjoy the wealth from his crime. c Windigate never paid Ryder and his sister for the goose that they sold to him. d Ryder never got a chance to hold the blue carbuncle.

Answer:

What Ryder means is:

b. Ryder ruined his reputation and didn't even get to enjoy the wealth from his crime.

Explanation:

"The Mystery of the Stolen Jewel" is a play that has the famous character Sherlock Holmes. As we know, Holmes was created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and the character is to this day still portrayed in movies and series as a clever detective. In Scene 7, another character, Ryder, tells Holmes that he is "a branded thief - without having touched the wealth for which I sold my character." When he says he sold his character, he means that his reputation is now ruined after what he has done. However, he also says that he hasn't touched, that is, enjoyed the wealth he obtained with his crime. Therefore, losing his reputation was not even worth it.

the scientists at nasa have arranged everything to launch Apollo (launching)​

An Indian anthropologist, Chandra Thapar, made a study of foreign cultures which had customs similar to those of his native land. One culture in particular fascinated him because it reveres one animal as sacred, much as the people in India revere the cow. The tribe Dr. Thapar studied is called the Asu and is found on the North American continent north of the Tarahumara of Mexico. Though it seems to be a highly developed society of its type, it has an overwhelming preoccupation with the care and feeding of the rac - an animal much like a bull in size, strength and temperament. In the Asu tribe, it is almost a social obligation to own at least one if not more racs. Anyone not possessing at least one is held in low esteem by the community because he is too poor to maintain one of the beasts properly. Some members of the tribe, to display their wealth and prestige, even own herds of racs. Unfortunately the rac breed is not very healthy and usually does not live more than five to seven years. Each family invests large sums of money each year to keep its rac healthy and shod, for it has a tendency to throw its shoes often. There are rac specialists in each community, perhaps more than one if the community is particularly wealthy. These specialists, however due to the long period of ritual training they must undergo and to the difficulty of obtaining the right selection of charms to treat the rac, demand costly offerings whenever a tribesman must treat his ailing rac. At the age of sixteen in many Asu communities, many youths undergo a puberty rite in which the rac figures prominently. The youth must petition a high priest in a grand temple. He is then initiated into the ceremonies that surround the care of the rac and is permitted to keep a rac. Although the rac may be used as a beast of burden, it has many habits which would be considered by other cultures as detrimental to the life of the society. In the first place the rac breed is increasing at a very rapid rate and the Asu tribesmen have given no thought to curbin
