What other reason caused this incident to stand out to Captain Kudo?

Answers

The other reason which caused the incident to stand out for Captain Kudo was that he saw an Afghan women's face uncovered for the first time.

Captain Kudo accidentally murdered two men and found out they were civilians. Then he tried to run away when he saw that people were running and there were children, old people and women too. Everyone was trying to avoid the scene of the disaster.

Kudo had never seen an Afghan woman's face in his entire life because they wore Burkhas, but on that day he saw the face of a young adult woman because she did not think it was the right time to cover her face then. Hence, option C is the right answer.

how does hosseini make hassan’s murder all too real, making it more painful for the reader? comment on specific narrative techniques.

Answers

Hosseini makes Hassan’s murder all too real, making it more painful for the reader.

Who is Khaled Hosseini and what is the kite runner?

Khaled Hosseini, an Afghan-American author, published his first book, The Kite Runner. The book, which was released in 2003 by Riverhead Books, is about Amir, a little child from Kabul's Wazir Akbar Khan neighborhood. The story is set against a background of turbulent events, including the Soviet invasion, the fall of the Afghan monarchy, the emigration of refugees to Pakistan and the US, and the creation of the Taliban dictatorship.

The background of Hassan's murder has always placed the topic of violence at the center of the story. Nevertheless, Amir's private nightmare becomes a reality in Taliban-run Kabul. We already know that Amir's life has been greatly impacted. The death of Hassan turns into an extension of Amir's nightmare. A friend informed Amir of Hassan's passing one month after he had arrived in Peshawar. A Hazara family was reportedly living alone in Baba's home after he left Kabul. The Taliban visited the residence one day and asked that they vacate. Hassan was taken outside, made to kneel, then shot at the back of the head after he objected. Farzana fled while yelling, and she was also shot to death. Amir was so distraught by the news that all he could say was, "No. No. No."

Assef and Baba are only a couple of the characters introduced in these few chapters.

Places and scenes

The early chapters' settings and scenes aid in establishing things.

Destination

The goal is just to guide us toward the 1975 winter.

Time and order.

These chapters have several time shifts, which causes pauses in the narration where we are unsure of what is happening.

Point of view and Voices

These chapters are written from Amir's perspective, which is frequently introspective and full of self-hatred.

Throughout the story, the man relies on his judgment, whereas the dog relies on its
instincts. How do the dog's instinctive actions compare to the man's rational ones? What do you
think London is trying to tell us about the difference between human and animal abilities to
survive?
To Build a Fire by Jack London
if you don’t know, don’t answer

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

How do the dog's instinctive actions compare to the man's rational ones?

Just by relying on his instincts, the dog is able to survive. He may not know how things work or why they are the way they are, but he knows what to do and when to do it. For instance, he knows that, if the man fails to build a fire, he (the dog) can dig himself a hole in the snow to keep himself warm until the next morning.

The man, on the other hand, makes blunder after blunder by relying on his judgment. To be fair, it is his arrogance that gets in the way. He seems to have lost respect for nature, trusting his own skills and knowledge too much. Unfortunately, that is what leads him to his death. Had he been humbler, had he been respectful and acknowledged the power of nature, his fate could have been different.

What do you  think London is trying to tell us about the difference between human and animal abilities to  survive?

In a sense, animals seem to be more intelligent than humans. Our intellect is somehow keeping us further and further apart from our instincts. We are becoming less effective in surviving because we are becoming less respectful toward nature. Animals, on the other hand, know their own limitations. They know when to walk, when to stop, when to rest, when to look for food. They have not lost contact with what they ancestors, so to speak, learned. They have it in them, naturally, effortlessly. That seems to be one of the themes London explores in this story.

This American government what is it but a tradition, though a recent one, endeavoring to transmit itself unimpaired to posterity, but

a sort of wooden gun to the people themselves..
But a government in which the majority rule in all cases cannot be based on justice, even as far as men understand it. Can there not be a
government in which majorities do not virtually decide right and wrong, but conscience? - in which majorities decide only those questions
to which the rule of expediency is applicable? Must the citizen ever for a moment, or in the least degree, resign his conscience to the
legislation? Why has every man a conscience, then? I think that we should be men first, and subjects afterward. It is not desirable to

Which inference can most strongly be made about Fortunato? (The cask of amontillado)


A. He is temperate.

B. He is anxious.

C. He is arrogant.

D. He is suspicious.

Answers

Answer:

C. He is arrogant.

Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado," tells the story of how the narrator Montresor got his revenge on the insults he had endured at the hands of his friend Fortunato. And through careful planning and deceit, Montresor succeeded in luring Fortunato to his death.

Throughout the story, we see Montresor admitting that Fortunato is the culprit of his present 'avenging mind'. And even though Fortunato seemed unaware of what was happening, Montresor admits that "he was a man to be respected and even feared." But one thing is sure of Fortunato- that he is arrogant, especially in his knowledge of wines and the like. Fortunato "prided himself on his connoisseurship in wine", and insisted that "Luchresi cannot tell Amontillado from Sherry", thus seemingly emphasizing his expertise in the subject. And it was just how Montresor had planned to be, to play with his pride in wines and thus, follows the rest of the plot.

Answers

Torvalds's behavior toward Nora, the protagonist of A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen, includes a Savior.

In A Doll's House  Torvald keeps reassuring himself that he is man enough to take care of his wife and children. He keeps on calling Nora by various silly names like, "little lark", "little squirrel", and "Little Miss Extravagant" and she is happy with these epithets.

We can conclude here that he doesn't treat her equally, for him she is someone to be taken care of and she has to be always pretty and cute.

But as the play,  A Doll's House, progressed we came to know about the real hero of the story. The things Nora did for Torvald were unacceptable at that time so she has to hide the truth from her companion.

Ibsen never thought to write a feminist play in a male - dominated society. This play sparked controversies but the story was original and was based on his friend's life.

Answers

Gilman expresses her feelings about the role women had in society at the time using the literary form of allegory. Allegorizing her own challenges, she demonstrates how she chose art [writing] over difficult experiences with women.

Gilman conveys the woman's mental state through a variety of literary strategies. Personification, imagery, and similes are a few of these. Additionally, she employs terms with unfavorable meanings like fungus, destroy, and lurid. Gilman refers to the wallpaper most frequently in figurative language.

The wallpaper unmistakably stands in for the narrator's imprisoning structures of family, medicine, and tradition. Wallpaper is a lowly and domestic material, and Gilman deftly employs this nightmare-inducing paper as a representation of the household existence that ensnares so many women.

A narrative is told to an audience by narration, which can be done either orally or in writing. A narrator, who may be a specific person or an ambiguous literary voice, conveys narration. This person or voice is chosen by the story's author to teach the audience, especially about the storyline.

All written stories must include narration, which presents the story as a whole. The majority of other storytelling media, such as movies, plays, television shows, even video games, do not require narration because the plot can be revealed by other techniques, such as character dialogue or visual action. The narrator’s uncle enjoys dining with him. This statement best expresses the narrator’s relationship with his uncle.
