Adichie mentions that Kambili has a tendency to stay in the shadows and is very quiet and shy. She is intelligent, yet she struggles with self confidence issues.

Kambili is a fifteen- year old shy and timid girl who excels academically. She dreads her harsh father's punishments even as she idolizes him, and her worldview is founded on his rigid Catholic teachings. Kambili gradually begins to talk and open up more after visiting Nsukka, and she develops feelings for the young priest Father Amadi. In the end, she stays Catholic, albeit with a more liberal outlook influenced by Father Amadi and her aunt Ifeoma.

Kambili was a reserved person because she was scared of her cruel father and had to act a certain way around him. This made her own confidence suffer.

Why is active listening an important component of communication? A. Most people only pretend to listen during a conversation. B.
VARVARA [1.3K]
The correct answer here is C.

Active listening is surprisingly not something many do, even though it is an important part in communication. While listening we often get distracted and think what are we going to say next so we are not always actively listening. This requires a lot of empathy, patience and practice but it is worth as we show that we value the speaker and that their thoughts are important to us.

Read the following passage and then respond to the directions below.
charle [14.2K]

This argument illustrates the slippery slope fallacy as Leo Panchello was used to create a happy picture of how much hard work local business owners put in and then goes on to tell how the light rail would destroy the local business and ruin all of their hard work which brings a sad ending.

<h3>What is a fallacy?</h3>

This is known as a mistaken belief, a faulty or failed reasoning especially one based on unsound argument.

Hence, the fallacy makes the argument weak because there's no indication that a light rail would destroy a main local business in the town as when constructing a light rail, they do not tear up the street, instead, they make the light rail a part of the street

A slippery slope fallacy is a course of action that is rejected because there is little or no evidence that one insists to lead to a chain reaction resulting in an undesirable end.
