Explanation:
Part 1
This story talks about a boy who lived with his grandparents. He was the owner of a large old banyan tree that had squirrels, snails and butterflies. Once he befriended a squirrel which resided in the tree. They became so intimate that the squirrel trusted him enough to be taking morsels from his hand. In spring, the tree was the noisiest place in the garden with parrots, mynas, crows, etc. who all kept chirping all day long. The boy used to read adventurous books sitting on the platform he had constructed for himself. When he did not read, he sat and saw the perfect view of the world under the tree. One day from here he witnessed a fight between a mongoose and a cobra.
Part 2
It was a warm summer which had sent everyone indoors. The boy was wondering whether he should go to the pond and swim with the buffaloes and Ramu when suddenly he saw a huge black cobra and a mongoose coming out. The cobra knew that the mongoose was a very angry and a good fighter. However, the cobra was no less as he was fast and had sharp fangs of deadly poison. Thus, it seemed like a war between the best. Both the animals were unaware of the boy but were soon accompanied by two spectators, a myna and a crow. The mongoose opened the attack. In order to take part in the fight, the crow and the myna threw themselves at each other and returned safely to the cactus. This happened twice. The third time they did this, the myna returned safely yet the crow got hit very sharply by the cobra. The crow lay weak and injured on the ground while the fight continued. Slowly the mongoose’s power overpowered and the snake ceased to struggle. The mongoose dragged it inside the bushes while the myna gave a shrill cry of congratulation and flew away.

the pearl book how does the town react to Kino's Good Fortune
Answer:
The whole town reacted with such fervor which the author states was like a "nerve . . . pulsing and vibrating with the news".
Explanation:
John Steinbeck's "The Pearl" revolves around the character Kino, a pearl diver who discovered a pearl and thus, began his change of fortune from being super poor to becoming rich. The story is more of a parable that deals with the greed of man and the evils in society that only leads to more discrimination.
Kino and his wife Juana were living in dire poverty. Once when a scorpion stung their baby Coyotito, the doctor refused to treat him because they had no money to pay him for his services. In frustration, Kino went diving for oysters while his wife applied seaweed on their son's swollen shoulder. Kino found a huge pearl which he dubbed "the Pearl of the World". From then on, numerous misfortunes happened to them, thieves tried to break in and steal their pearl, traders tried to cheat them out of it. The whole neighborhood was abuzz with the enormous discovery, the whole town was "pulsing and vibrating with the news", everyone trying to associate themselves with Kino, including the doctor who refused to treat them earlier.

In the line I stole the king's diamond, what word should the actor stress to create the interpretation that he/she is proud of this action? A.) Stole B.) Diamond C.) King's D.) I
Answer:
D.) I.
Explanation:
Acting is a form of recreating a specific emotion, scene, or occurrence so that there is no difference in the reality and the acted version. This is a performance skill that enables a lot of actors and performers to be able to showcase their talent out in the world.
In the line "I stole the King's diamond", the main focus is on the stolen diamond. But if the actor is to stress a word in such a way that he/ she is proud of his/her great achievement, the stress should be on the word "I". That is because, if the "I" is stressed, then the focus is on the individual, the actor "I", who dared to steal from the king. The stressed "I" gives an impression of the person doing the great deed.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
Ridgeway explains his position as follows: "I'm a notion of order.
The slave that disappears--it's a notion, too. Of hope. Undoing
what I do so that a slave the next plantation over gets an idea that it
can run, too. If we allow that, we accept the flaw in the imperative.
And I refuse" (223). What is the "flaw in the imperative," and why
is it important for Ridgeway and the broader institution of
enslavement that relies on Black bodies, that the flaw is
exterminated? Why is the hope of freedom so dangerous?
1. The "flaw in the imperative" represents the possibility for slaves to flee their "masters", abandon their captivity and live a certain freedom, because it represents a failure of white authority. Ridgeway is a Slavecatcher and believes that it is essential that this failure be decimated, because it gives slaves strength and hope and removes the sovereignty and superiority that whites should have over them.
2. The hope of freedom is dangerous because it allows blacks to have the chance to match up with whites and to destroy the entire system established in slave society. As whites saw blacks as inferiors, giving them the hope of freedom made it possible for them to be books, which made them the same as whites and this was seen as a way of lowering whites.

Answer: Null hypothesis : [tex]H_0: p=0.19[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis : [tex]H_a: p\neq0.19[/tex]
The test is two-tailed test.
Explanation:
A null hypothesis [tex](H_0)[/tex] is defined as
hypothesis that proposes that there is no difference between particular characteristics of a population.It takes ' = ', ' ≤' , '≥'Alternative hypothesis [tex](H_a)[/tex] is defined as
hypothesis that proposes that there is a significant difference between particular characteristics of a population.It takes ' ≠ ', ' <' , '>'If alternative hypothesis is two tailed then we apply two tail test and if alternative hypothesis is left tailed/ right tailed then we apply two left -tailed / right tailed test respectively.Let p be the proportion of all homeowners have a home security alarm.

Haroun and the Sea of Stories how does the author Salman Rushdie uses the motif of silenced voices to develop a theme?
Answer:
The silenced voices are used to build the theme that a society needs to maintain a balance between sensibility and freedom of expression to maintain itself.
Explanation:
The author uses the concept of silenced voices to show how censorship is harmful to a society. This is because the voice and life stories of each individual give life to that society and establish the personality of the individuals characterizing the society and strengthening it.
However, the author does not fail to show when the silencing of voices, censorship, in this case, is necessary to keep society together, protected, strong and efficient. With this, the author establishes the theme that it is important that a balance is maintained in any community, between silence and speech, between censorship and freedom of expression.

In "Fireside Chat #19," which other country does Roosevelt say must also be
defeated in order for the American way of life to be safe?
A. China
B. Germany
C. Norway
D. Russia
Answer:
B. Germany.
Explanation:
The "Fireside Chats" as they are termed, are the numerous 'declarations/ announcements' of then-president Franklin D. Roosevelt broadcasted all over the nation. This broadcast contains the president addressing the American people's fears and concerns regarding their national security during the days leading up to the Second World War.
"Fireside Chat #19" is a declaration of war against Japan after the attack on the American soil. This declaration of war against Japan has been a grave act of breaking peace terms and thus, now officially a war. But Roosevelt continued to state that with this war against Japan, it must be remembered that Germany has been behind all these attacks for it has promised Japan a share of the spoils of war. "Germany has been telling Japan that if Japan did not attack the United States, Japan would not share in dividing the spoils with Germany when peace came. She was promised by Germany that if she came in she would receive the complete and perpetual control of the whole of the Pacific area -- and that means not only the Ear East, but also all of the Islands in the Pacific, and also a stranglehold on the west coast of North, Central and South America", he commented. This is why along with the need to attack Japan, America also needs to defeat Germany for life to be safe in American soil.
