Which three lines in this excerpt from Anita Desai’s "Games at Twilight" clearly show an omniscient narrator?

Answers

The three lines that show an omniscient narrator are "They faced the afternoon," "Thee children, too, felt released," and "They too began tumbling..."

What is an omniscient narrator?

The narrator is the one telling us the story. An omniscient narrator is a type of narrator that knows everything, that is, who can tell us about the thoughts and actions of all characters rather than just one or a few.

Thus, we must choose the lines that show the narrator in "Games at Twilight" knows about all characters. In this case, the three best options are:

"They faced the afternoon." "Thee children, too, felt released." "They too began tumbling, shoving, pushing against each other."

What is the main idea of the quote from James Baldwin
in the passage on the left?
O All people face changes.
O People cannot change things easily.
O People must face issues to change them.

Answers

Answer:

c people must face issues to change them

Explanation:

The main idea of the quote from James Baldwin in the passage is that people cannot change things easily and that nothing can be changed until it is faced. So, the correct option is B.

What was James Baldwin's phrase?

The phrase used earlier by James Baldwin is more important than the sentence itself. He was suggesting that life is just a roller coaster ride. It's constantly changing. It is also quite natural. So we should be mentally prepared for such a change.

Even though change is a natural process, he continues, we usually fail to bring about the changes we want. It seems normal to us. To bring change we have to change. It takes some time. The process is slow, but we must be vigilant.

James Baldwin also discusses the need of practicality in life. We have to confront our anxieties or challenges if we want to change the situation. We cannot change if we do not face what is coming our way.

So, the correct option is B.

Write an essay on "Should students be given more homework ?"​

Answers

Answer:

I feel that students should be given homework as it gives an opportunity to establish the practice of studying in the environment at home. It is a vehicle for independent learning. The reasons for giving homework change as the students get older. In the initial academic years, it is the forging of a constructive relationship between school and home that is of primordial importance. For primary school children, it gives chance to do things at home which are difficult at school. It helps parents to know what their children are doing in school. For secondary school children, homework is important because it develops skills, confidence and motivation needed to study effectively on their own. It teaches life-long learning and adaptability, sustaining the involvement of parents in the management of students’ learning. Teachers should give homework, possibly relevant to the environment the students are working in, reasonably within a set time limit and should have a clear schedule. It should be followed-up in the school to show that it is valued and makes a useful contribution to learning. Parents should value, encourage, praise and provide a peaceful and suitable place at home for children to do their homework.

In this lesson, you analyzed how Shakespeare develops Juliet's character in Romeo and Juliet: Act 1, Scene 3. Shakespeare uses indirect characterization to reveal Juliet's personality, motivations, and traits.
