<h3>
<em>☆ Explanation</em></h3>
Read the excerpt: “Teenage caffeine consumption, once limited to sodas and hot chocolate, now has nearly become the norm in the Bay Area and nationally. Though no statistics exist to chart teenage coffee drinkers—the National Coffee Association polls only consumers 18 and older—a drive past any coffeehouse near a high school would show that it’s replaced the iconic malt shop of the’ 50s or 7-Eleven of the 70s as a place to socialize.”
What is the central idea of the above excerpt?
Teens no longer hang out at malt shops or 7 Elevens to socialize.
Teens are drinking more caffeine now than during the 50s to the 70s.
Teens don’t realize the amount of hidden caffeine they are consuming.
Teens today are becoming more addicted to coffee both nationally and in the Bay area.
The central theme of Kamala Markandaya's Nectar in Sieve is the religion. Religion is presented from secular point of view amidst in all the tragic consequences family faces and in all the moral and physical pains they suffer from. Therefore, it is rather paradoxical to find that the religion has been used from positive aspect. The use of theme amidst the tragic events shows author's cynic approach towards religion. For example, when Rukmani visits her mother, the author narrates her thoughts as:
"...and together we would pray and pray before deity, imploring for help until we were giddy. But the Gods have other things to do; they cannot attend to the pleas of every suppliant who dares to raise his cares to heaven..."
Later in the novel, Rukmani describes Gods as not remote, not unheedful because they heard her son Kuti's cries and made her calm. However, it is not the praise of Gods because she later learns that Kuti's improvement was due to Ira's earning from prostitution.
