In the novel “<em>Nectar in a Sieve</em>” by Kamala Markandaya (1954), one of the main themes is the contrast between the tradition (Part 1) and the modern (Part 2), or the rural life and the city life. While <u>Part 1</u> takes place in an unnamed village in rural India, <u>Part 2</u> takes place in an unnamed major city in urban India. The author used imagery throughout the novel in order to call the reader’s attention. This technique is used <u>to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that it appeals to the reader’s physical senses</u>. For example, Markandaya used onomatopoeia together with imagery in the following passage “<em>… a click-clank of stone on stone with intermittent dull explosions</em>”. Water is also an example of imagery in the novel, since the patterns of the rain portray Rukmani’s view of the world and the balance of certainty and uncertainty, the good times and the bad ones.  Moreover, water was also an important element in <u>Nathan’s death</u> and <u>for the women</u>.

What is an example of ignorance and stupidity ?
NISA [10]

Answer:

Stupidity is when you know you'll get run over by a car if you run in the road, but you do it anyway. Ignorance is when you're being not very smart about something you don't know much about. Ignorance has two meanings. You can either be ignorant about something you know, or ignorant about something you don't know.

argumentative essay about why the federal government needs stricter gun laws rather than state gun laws
KIM [24]
Well! You've got a strong topic, now you just need to get your template down. It's an argumentative essay, so you're going to want an attention-grabbing introduction with your thesis statement. You're going to want body paragraphs that explain both sides of the debate, and then try to convince the reader that your side (the federal gov side) is the best position to take. Wrap it up with a conclusion and voila!

One of your points may be that federal power covers all 50 states, meanwhile state gun laws only govern the individual state. Strict gun laws in Illinois don't matter if it's only a two hour drive to Indiana where they have much looser laws.

Essay on a story called "David Copperfield"

The full title of “David Copperfield” is “The Personal History, Adventures, Experience and Observation of David Copperfield the younger of Blunderstone Rookery” but it was never published under this name. “David Copperfield” is the story of a child carrying the same name and his journey from childhood till he grows old.

A sad childhood is portrayed in the story where the child loses his father at a young age. As a result, his mother marries again and his step father gives the little child a very hard time. His step father believes that being weak in studies, David needs full attention. After being frustrated by his father, little David one day bites him. The result is that soon he lands into a hostel where he also faces a hard time but makes two friends- James Steerforth and Tommy Traddles. When he returns home during vacations he comes to know that his mother has given birth to a baby boy. Soon both his mother and the baby boy dies and David is left alone to face the torture of his father. His father now sends David to a factory to work.

David runs away from London to Dover and now meets his relative, Aunt Betsey Trotwood. He is now renamed as Trotwood Copperfield and is addressed by the new nickname Trot everywhere. As he grows up many of his loved ones also leave him alone by kissing death including his Aunt Betsey. At a very young age David faces the pain that people do not face in their lifetimes. This makes him a mature and well to do individual. But life takes a much harder lesson after he gets married to Dora Spenlow because she dies facing the pain of her miscarriage early in their marriage. Later David marries the beautiful and sensible Agnes and lives a beautiful life with her and their three children. He also names his daughter after his late aunt Betsey to show how much he loved her and how much he still misses her.

Is this story okay ??if you want an essay on the story which you read ,then please ask , if I know the story I would try to help

Thank you
