Later, the banker puts the letter in a safe.  Does he do this to prevent himself for being implicated in a crime (reneging on the bet)?  Or, does he value the letter more dearly than money?  In other words, does the bet teach both the banker and the lawyer to renounce vanity and materialism and to value human relationships?Question 26Select one:a.The banker makes a bet with the lawyer.b.The lawyer leave his garden prison a few minutes early.c.The banker puts the letter in his safe.d.The banker plans to murder the lawyer.Clear my choiceQuestion 27Not yet answeredFlag questionTipsQuestion textIn Great Expectations, at one point, Estella is being courted by Drummle, who:Question 27Select one:a.Pip despised even before he started seeing Estella.b.Was Pip's best friend in the Finches of the Grove.c.Pip looks up to and admires.d.Pip wrestled once in the Miss Havisham's garden.
