Answer 1

In the story "The Open Window" by Saki (H.H. Munro), readers know that Mrs. Sappleton's niece has been lying when Mr. Nuttel, the visitor, confronts her about the story she told him. The niece admits to lying about the tragic accident involving her aunt's husband and brothers.Earlier in the story, there are several clues that hint at the niece's deception. For example, when Mr. Nuttel first arrives, the niece seems overly eager to tell him the story about the tragic accident. Additionally, her behavior and mannerisms during their conversation suggest that she is hiding something. These subtle hints, combined with the niece's confession, reveal her deception to the readers.
