Select the correct text in the passage. Which sentence in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich suggests that

Ivan Ilyich’s wife, Praskovya Fedorovna, takes no responsibility for his illness? Her attitude was this: "You know," she would say to her friends, "Ivan Ilyich can't do as other people do, and keep to the treatment prescribed for him. One day he'll take his drops and keep strictly to his diet and go to bed in good time, but the next day unless I watch him he'll suddenly forget his medicine, eat sturgeon—which is forbidden—and sit up playing cards till one o'clock in the morning." "Oh, come, when was that?" Ivan Ilyich would ask in vexation. "Only once at Peter Ivanovich's." "And yesterday with shebek." "Well, even if I hadn't stayed up, this pain would have kept me awake." "Be that as it may you'll never get well like that, but will always make us wretched." Praskovya Fedorovna's attitude to Ivan Ilyich's illness, as she expressed it both to others and to him, was that it was his own fault and was another of the annoyances he caused her. Ivan Ilyich felt that this opinion escaped her involuntarily—but that did not make it easier for him. At the law courts too, Ivan Ilyich noticed, or thought he noticed, a strange attitude towards himself. It sometimes seemed to him that people were watching him inquisitively as a man whose place might soon be vacant. Then again, his friends would suddenly begin to chaff him in a friendly way about his low spirits, as if the awful, horrible, and unheard-of thing that was going on within him, incessantly gnawing at him and irresistibly drawing him away, was a very agreeable subject for jests.

The sentence in the above excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s “The Death of Ivan Ilyich” which suggests that Ivan Ilyich’s wife, Praskovya Fedorovna, takes no responsibility for his illness is:

“Praskovya Fedorovna's attitude to Ivan Ilyich's illness, as she expressed it both to others and to him, was that it was his own fault and was another of the annoyances he caused her.”

From the story “The Death of Ivan Ilyich” Tolstoy wants to convey his thoughts about the types of lives. According to him, there are two types of lives, one is the artificial life and the other is the authentic life. Characters like Ivan, his wife Praskovya and Peter in the story are leading a life of artificial while Gerasim is the only one living an authentic life. Shallow relationships, materialism, and self-interests are the characteristics of an artificial life. Praskovya and Ivan's relationship is seen to be shallow and self-centered in the story.

The Pros and Cons of labeling young children<br> as having a particular disability
zzz [600]

Hello!

Answer:

There are both advantages and disadvantages to being labeled as a child with special needs.

<u>Advantages: </u>

Individualized Education Program

An obvious pro of labeling a child who has special needs in the classroom is that teachers can use this information to help the child learn using their limitations as a guide.

Extra Learning Support

By labeling a child, they will receive extra services that they may not have been able to receive otherwise. For example, the child may be able to receive instruction in a learning support room at a pace that works for them.

Targeted Instruction

Kivi says that by labeling the child as «learning disabled» these students are able to get help in order to remediate their specific problem.

<u>Disadvantages: </u>

Low Self-Esteem for the Student

There are many laws in place that protect the rights of students with disabilities including access to services and helping to ensure these students are not discriminated against. These students may feel that they cannot do well in school or are not smart.

Lower Expectations from Parents & Teachers

Basically, if the teachers and parents don’t believe in the child, then the child won’t believe in himself either. «Lower expectations sets up the student for failure,» Newsome says.

Peer Issues

Fellow students can be mean and make fun of the student with special needs because they are different. Parents are considered to be full and equal members of the IEP team, along with school personnel. Because parents have inside knowledge of their child’s strengths and needs, they are crucial members of the team. «Parents have the right to be involved in meetings that discuss the identification, evaluation, IEP development and educational placement of their children,» says Newsome.

Depending on other country is always harmful debate​
sladkih [1.3K]
My view. When a country depends on another, it cannot have an independent course of action. Though Taiwan is not a country (according to the UN and most countries), Over 60% of her GDP depends on trade with China. It is moot at this point, whether she wants independence or not, she is already a part of China by anyone’s pragmatic definition. South Korea is also stuck. Maybe not as much, but stuck. South Korea’s major trading partner is China and her security partner is the US. As the US and China get more and more distant from one another, South Korea has to tread water very carefully, not wanting to aggravate either side. Unfortunately, what is evolving is like the ‘cold war’. The US and US allies pitted against Russia/China allies. Most countries are caught in the middle. Their economic fate might be decided by which side they choose. Most want to be neutral but independent in action.
