Q

“he seized the extenguisher __, and ______ upon ______”

“miners cheering company assembled around a fire”

A

2 → exterminating light - extinguishing the beacon of hope the spirity provdes - without acknowledging the past, scrooge is unable to transform, there is no hope.

link → warmth the spirit provides is a common motif - connotes to loving compassion
