Answer:

Rukmani possesses the skill to read and write she tries to use for earning money in the city. She decides to read and write letters for people in the city.

Explanation:

Rukmani is the sole narrator and protagonist of the novel "Nectar in a Sieve" (published in 1955) and written by Kamala Markandaya.

Rukmani is the daughter of village's headman. She is married at age twelve to a very poor farmer Nathan. Since Rukmani has the unique skill of reading and writing (taught to her by his father), she initially plans to earn some money by reading villager's letters which their relatives mail from other parts of the country. But then she decides to do the same in the city. She thinks that she could earn reasonable amount of money in the city because of its large population. But she does not consider that in cities most or the people are already literate.

Which of the following lines from “in another country” by Ernest Hemingway contribute to the prevailing mood of apathy in the st
Luden [163]
If your options are: A) One day I had said that Italian seemed such an easy language to me that I could not take a great interest in it; everything was so easy to say. "Ah, yes," the major said. B) The girls at the Cova were very patriotic, and I found that the most patriotic people in Italy were the café girls—and I believe they are still patriotic. C) We were all a little detached, and there was nothing that held us together except that we met every afternoon at the hospital. D) It was warm, standing in front of her charcoal fire, and the chestnuts were warm afterward in your pocket. E) <span>The major, who had been a great fencer, did not believe in bravery, and spent much time while we sat in the machines correcting my grammar.

The correct answer is A, in my opinion. It doesn't talk about apathy (the loss of interest and psychological indifference to everything). It shows apathy in a dialogue between two people, thus proving that apathy has infused every single aspect of the soldiers' lives in Milan. The major's short answer "Ah, yes" also shows it. The two people talk about their lack of interest for Italian, and they are not even interested in this talk that they have.</span>
