Question

2. At one point the narrator calls this appointment an 'uncertain appointment'. Do you
agree with him? Why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The appointment is uncertain, as the narrator in "After Twenty Years" claims. Despite the fact that the two men gave a specific location and time, there is still some question because a person's moral character can change over the course of twenty years, which means they no longer fully know one another.

Explanation:

The Four Million, a tale collection, featured O. Henry's short story "After Twenty Years" in 1906. During his lifetime, the author, whose real name was William Sydney Porter, was a prolific and well-known author. He once wrote one article per week for newspapers and another article per week for periodicals.

One late night in New York City, a police officer is on duty. In a shadowy doorway, he sees a figure standing. "Silky" Bob informs the policeman that he is awaiting his friend Jimmy Wells when he approaches him. The two men had arranged to meet on this date in a restaurant just where Bob is waiting, twenty years before. In the city, Bob and Jimmy Wells grew up together as brothers, and Jimmy was one of the most dependable and devoted friends a person could ask for, according to Bob. He goes on to say that he went to the West and became quite successful there. Bob starts a cigar throughout the chat, and his face is audible. After a little more conversation, the officer wishes Bob well and leaves him.
